Nakano Note (Nakano wa Kangaeru noda) NK 1912 184P/Lovas 2

The following improved orbital elements, by S. Nakano, are from 62 observations 1986 to 2007. Perturbations by Mercury to Neptune and three minor planets, Ceres, Pallas and Vesta, were taken into account. The mean residual is +/- 0.89 arc second. See the previous orbit in NK 650, NK 946 and NK 1412. Epoch = 2006 Dec. 11.0 TT T = 2006 Dec. 12.45086 +/- 0.00114 (m.e.)
