1711 Sandrine, provisional designation 1935 BB, is a stony asteroid from the outer region of the asteroid belt. It was discovered by Belgian astronomer Eugène Delporte at Royal Observatory of Belgium in Uccle on 29 January 1935.[3]
The S-type asteroid orbits the Sun at a distance of 2.7–3.4 AU once every 5 years and 3 months (1,909 days). Its orbit shows and eccentricity of 0.12 and is inclined by 11 degrees to the plane of the ecliptic. The asteroid's size, albedo and rotation period are yet to be determined.[1][4]
It was named after Sandrine, a grand-niece of Georges Roland, astronomer at Uccle and co-discoverer of Comet Arend–Roland. Delporte also named 1707 Chantal and 1848 Delvaux after family members of his collaborater.[2]
