The following improved orbital elements, by S. Nakano, are from 100 observations 2013 Feb. 14 to Nov. 13. Perturbations by Mercury to Neptune and three minor planets, Ceres, Pallas and Vesta, were taken into account. The mean residual is +/- 0.55 arc second. See an orbit in HICQ 2013. Epoch = 2015 Sept.15.0 TT T = 2015 Sept. 1.35047 +/- 0.55152 (m.e.)
