OAA computing section circular NK 717 D/1895 Q1 (Swift)

The following prediction, by S. Nakano, is from an orbit determined 182 observations 1895 Aug. 24-1896 Feb. 6 by Belyaev and Stal'bovskij (1972). Perturbations by Mercury to Neptune and three minor planets, Ceres, Pallas, Vesta, were taken into account. T = 2003 Sept.29.14657 TT Epoch = 2003 Oct. 8.0 TT Peri. = 195.15724 e = 0.6091840 Node = 139.09641 (2000.0) a = 3.8084238 AU Inc. = 14.24339 n'= 0.13261302 q = 1.4883929 AU P = 7.432 years
