The mass of the asteroid 15 Eunomia was determined from its perturbati
ons of 1313 Berna and 1284 Latvia. The perturbation of Berna gives a m
ass for Eunomia of (4.2 +/- 1.1) x 10(-12) M.. The perturbation of Lat
via gives an upper bound on the mass for Eunomia of 8 X 10(-12) M.. Th
e mass determined using Berna gives a density of only 0.79 +/- 0.21 g
cm(-3) assuming that Eunomia is a homogeneous sphere with a diameter o
f 272 km. However, Eunomia is not spherical; hence, its volume is very
poorly known. Since a sphere has the highest volume to mean projected
area ratio of any body the density of Eunomia may be much higher than
indicated. Radar range observations will determine the position of th
e perturbed asteroid to a higher precision than the uncertainty in the
current ephemerides. The estimated reduction in the uncertainty for t
he mass of Eunomia from a single ideal radar time delay measurement of
Berna is a factor of 2. This reduction in the uncertainty makes radar
ranges the best way to reduce the uncertainty in the mass of Eunomia.
Both Latvia and Berna will be in position to be observed by the Areci
bo radio telescope at opposition during 1998 and 2000.
