Nakano Note (Nakano wa Kangaeru noda) NK 2813 C/2011 J2 - C (LINEAR)

The following improved orbital elements, by S. Nakano, are from 98 observations 2011 Mar. 10 to 2014 Dec. 6 using selected observations of principal component before 2014 Mar. and excepting observations between 2014 Apr.-Oct.. Perturbations by Mercury to Neptune and three minor planets, Ceres, Pallas and Vesta, and non-gravitational effects of the sublimating molecule = CO (or N2) using Yabushita's theory (MN 283, 347) were taken into account. The mean residual is +/- 0.64 arc second. The separation of the component C was about 4" from the principal component on Nov. 2 UT. See the previous orbits in NK 2196, NK 2248, NK 2374, NK 2474, NK 2595 (= HICQ 2014), NK 2760 for the principal and NK 2788 for component B.
