Nakano Note (Nakano wa Kangaeru noda) NK 2524 226P/Pigott-LINEAR-Kowalski
The following improved orbital elements, by T. Kobayashi, are from 259 observations 1783 to 2010, including planetary perturbations by Mercury to Neptune and three minor planets, Ceres, Pallas, Vesta, and non-gravitational effect of style II. The mean residual is +/- 1.28 arc seconds. The comet has passed 0.056 AU from Jupiter on 2006 Sept. 10.3 UT. This orbit gives T= 1783 October as the first return (See a linked orbit in NK 1826). See the previous orbits in NK 919, NK 1317, NK 1826, NK 1827 and NK 1854. Epoch = 2016 Sept. 9.0 TT T = 2016 Sept. 5.12306 +/- 0.00042 (m.e.)
