This is the seventh page of my asteroid discoveries; my discoveries at H06 in the first half of 2009.

Click on the "Get ephemerides/orbits" button for more information on each asteroid.


A PDF document describing the use of the MPES
is available.


Information on any known problems with this
service is available.





 

Astrometric observations of any of the following objects should be sent directly
to mpc@cfa.harvard.edu.
Updated orbits will be available automatically through this page.

Options:

By default, ephemerides are geocentric, begin now and are for 20 days at 1
day intervals.

Start date for ephemerides:   Number of dates to output 

Ephemeris interval:   Ephemeris
units:  days   hours   minutes   seconds

For daily ephemerides, enter desired offset from 0h UT:  hours

Observatory code: 

Display positions in: truncated sexagesimal or
 full sexagesimal or
 decimal units

Display motions as:  "/sec   "/min   "/hr   °/day

 Total motion and direction
   Separate R.A. and Decl. sky motions
   Separate R.A. and Decl. coordinate motions

 Suppress output if sun above local horizon

 Suppress output if object below local horizon

If you select 8-line MPC format, you may display the residual block for the
objects selected:


 Show residuals blocks.  Show only residual lines containing observations from code .
If you select 8-line MPC format the elements will be displayed with the ephemerides.
If you select any format other than 8-line MPC format, only the elements are returned.
In such cases your browser should download the elements file and save it
to your local disk.



 




Supplementary Information






Summary

The summary lists the current J2000.0 coordinates, visual magnitude and
    solar elongation of the selected minor planets, as well as information on
    the date of last observation (where available), forthcoming opposition
    data and details on the latest published orbit.  The opposition data lists
    the date of the next opposition and the declination and visual magnitude
    at that time.



Formats

The list of available formats for the orbital elements was correct at the
    time this document was prepared.  It is possible that the Minor Planet
    Center now supports futher formats.  If you select the summary option,
    any newly supported formats will be listed.



Elements

The elements supplied are the latest published elements for the
    specified objects.  Elements will be found even if the designation you
    enter is a non-principal designation in an identification or if the object
    has been numbered.
    

    Ephemerides can be supplied for objects with only Väisälä
    elements, but the elements themselves are not supplied.



Ephemerides

The ephemerides supplied for minor planets and comets are
    perturbed (if the orbits were computed with perturbations) and can be
    generated over the time period 1900 to 2040.  Objects with unperturbed
    orbit solutions will return unperturbed ephemerides.  Objects must be
    identified in images by their motion, not by their apparent closeness
    to a predicted position.
    

    The time-scale of the supplied ephemerides is UTC.
    

    If you desire a topocentric ephemeris, enter your observatory code
    in the appropriate box.  When local circumstances are displayed, the
    azimuths are reckoned westwards from the south meridian.
    

    As an aide-mémoire, the packed
    form of the object's designation (as used on the
    astrometric
    observation record)
    is displayed immediately above the ephemeris.
