Nakano Note (Nakano wa Kangaeru noda) NK 2958 P/2014 C1 (TOTAS)

The following improved orbital elements, by S. Nakano, are from 47 observations 2014 Feb. 1 to May 8. Perturbations by Mercury to Neptune and three minor planets, Ceres, Pallas and Vesta, were taken into account. The mean residual is +/- 0.54 arc second. See an orbit in HICQ 2014. Epoch = 2013 Dec. 14.0 TT T = 2013 Dec. 18.95356 +/- 0.05473 (m.e.) TT Peri. = 23.99712 +/- 0.02310 Node = 167.86870 +/- 0.01120 (2000.0) Inc. = 2.67966 +/- 0.00031 q = 1.6857413 +/- 0.0002797 AU e = 0.4460971 +/- 0.0005459 a = 3.0433877 +/- 0.0009993 AU n' = 0.18563854 +/- 0.00009144 P = 5.309 +/- 0.0026151 years (+/- 0.96 day) The predicted orbit for the 2019 return is as follows: T = 2019 Apr. 13.26361 TT Epoch = 2019 Apr. 27.0 TT Peri. = 24.14852 e = 0.4464330 Node = 167.84880 (2000.0) a = 3.0429792 AU Inc. = 2.68082 n'= 0.18567593 q = 1.6844929 AU P = 5.308 years The following residuals in seconds of arc are from the above orbital elements: Date Code Residual(") Date Code Residual(") Date Code Residual(") 2014/ 140202 474 0.0 0.1- 140204 958 0.1- 0.6- 140201 J04 0.6+ 0.1+ 140202 Q62 1.0- 0.2+ 140204 958 0.8+ 0.7- 140201 J04 0.9+ 0.0 140202 Q62 0.3- 1.2- 140204 I47 0.0 0.3- 140201 J04 0.3+ 0.1+ 140203 958 0.2- 0.5- 140204 I47 0.6- 0.1- 140201 J04 0.4+ 0.0 140203 958 0.5+ 0.5+ 140204 I47 0.3- 0.3+ 140201 Q62 0.2- 0.2+ 140203 958 0.9+ 1.2+ 140204 474 0.9- 0.1- 140201 Q62 0.0 0.0 140203 W96 0.4+ 0.7- 140204 474 1.4- 0.1- 140201 Q62 0.1+ 0.2- 140203 W96 1.1+ 0.1+ 140204 474 0.1- 0.4+ 140202 I47 0.2+ 0.0 140203 W96 0.7+ 0.2- 140204 474 0.6+ 0.2- 140202 I47 0.4+ 0.1+ 140203 H36 1.0- 0.7+ 140207 Q62 0.1- 0.5+ 140202 807 0.0 0.2- 140203 H36 0.6- 0.6+ 140207 Q62 0.6- 0.7+ 140202 807 0.0 0.3- 140203 H36 0.6- 0.5+ 140414 W96 0.2+ 0.8+ 140202 807 0.1+ 0.1+ 140203 474 1.2+ 0.1+ 140414 W96 0.2+ 0.8+ 140202 926 0.3- 0.6- 140203 474 0.2- 0.2- 140508 W96 0.2- 1.1- 140202 926 0.5- 0.4+ 140203 474 0.4+ 0.3- 140508 W96 (0.6+ 4.2-) 140202 926 1.0- 0.0 140203 474 0.6+ 0.5+ 140202 474 0.2+ 0.2- 140204 958 0.6- 1.0- ( ) -------- Rejected Obs.
