The (dynamical, astrometrical) method for computing the mass is based on the analysis of orbital perturbations during close encounters between the massive asteroid (perturber) and (several) smaller minor planets (test asteroids / bodies).  Below some results derived by me. The SiMDA project is dedicated to asteroid masses and densities.

1: Recalculation using more observations and extended arc span.
2: (Re)calculation with observation debiasing (Chesley et al. (2010)).
