[edit] Backups of a few MPCs

Because the cfa-www.harvard.edu domain is notorious for the unstability of its contents, we've created local backups of some MPCs (Minor Planet Circulars). These two are listed as "sample" MPCs, and were copied because they contain minor planet naming citations.

(5231) Verne = 1988 JV

Discovered 1988 May 9 by C. S. Shoemaker, E. M. Shoemaker and H. E. Holt at Palomar.

Named for Jules Verne (1828-1905), French novelist and playwright. One of the founding fathers of modern science fiction, he was also the author of numerous works of mainstream adventure fiction. His best-known tales include {\it From the Earth to the Moon} (1865), {\it Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea} (1870) and {\it Around the World in Eighty Days} (1873). The discoverers are great fans of Verne's work, as is M. M. Dworetsky, who suggested the name and prepared the citation.

(5677) Aberdonia = 1987 SQ1

Discovered 1987 Sept. 21 by E. Bowell at the Anderson Mesa Station of the Lowell Observatory.

Named in honor of the University of Aberdeen on the occasion of the quincentenary of its founding, 1995 Feb. 10. The University is noted as having been home to the first chair of medicine in the English-speaking world. The teaching of natural philosophy was established more than 400 years ago, and the earliest record of the teaching of astronomy dates back to 1593. Occupants of chairs of natural philosophy include James Clerk Maxwell and more recently the Nobel laureate George Paget Thomson.

(5819) Shinsengumi = 1989 AH

Discovered 1989 Jan. 3 by T. Seki at Geisei.

(5884) Dolezal = 6045 P-L

Discovered 1960 Sept. 24 by C. J. van Houten and I. van Houten-Groeneveld on Palomar Schmidt plates taken by T. Gehrels.

Named in memory of Erich Dolezal (1902-1990). He was a talented writer and popularizer of astronomy and space science. He wrote many books and later became Science Advisor of Radio Austria in Vienna, where he gave numerous lectures to schoolchildren and adults. In 1949, he was a co-founder of the Austrian Society for Space Research that was eventually merged into the International Astronautical Federation. Name proposed by the discoverers following a suggestion by H. Haupt.

(5885) Apeldoorn = 3137 T-2

Discovered 1973 Sept. 30 by C. J. van Houten and I. van Houten-Groeneveld on Palomar Schmidt plates taken by T. Gehrels.

Named in honor of Berend Caspar Jan Apeldoorn (b. 1944), Dutch amateur astronomer, on the occasion of his 50th birthday. Since 1961, Ben has specialized in meteors and meteorites, observing meteors both visually and photographically. He has written many articles on astronomy for astronomicalperiodicals and yearbooks, as well as for general magazines and newspapers. Apeldoorn still makes important contributions to the popularization of astronomy and is a member of the Meteor Section of the Dutch Society for Meteorology and Astronomy. Name proposed by the discoverers following a suggestion by F. Bettonvil, chairman of the Meteor Section.

(5902) Talima = 1987 QY10

Discovered 1987 Aug. 27 by L. G. Karachkina at the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory.

Named for Tatiana Alimovna Damir (b. 1923), friend of the discoverer, daughter of Alim Matveevich Damir (5717) and wife of Sergej Petrovich Kapitsa (5094).

(5941) Valencia = 1982 UQ6

Discovered 1982 Oct. 20 by L. G. Karachkina at the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory.

Named for the large Mediterranean seaport city in Spain, administrative center of the province of the same name and an important industrial, cultural and scientific center. Name proposed by the Institute of Theoretical Astronomy, which collaborates with the Astronomical Observatory of the University of Valencia.

(5944) Utesov = 1984 JA2

Discovered 1984 May 2 by L. G. Karachkina at the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory.

Named in memory of Leonid Osipovich Utesov (1895-1982), famous Russian singer, musician, actor, founder and artistic leader of the first Russian theatricalized jazz band (1929). The name is given by the discoverer on the occasion of one-hundredth anniversary of Utesov's birth, following a suggestion by L. R. Nemirovskij.

(5954) Epikouros = 1987 QS1

Discovered 1987 Aug. 19 by E. W. Elst at the European Southern Observatory.

Named for the great philosopher Epikouros (341-270 B.C.), well known for his exposition of the atomistic theory of physics, inspired by the teachings of Demokritos. He was also celebrated for his ethical teaching, to which we owe "epicurism". Living in an age when the Greeks had lost their political freedom in Macedonia, Epikouros wanted to restore mental freedom by means of his physics to ensure "quietude of the mind".

(6001) Thales = 1988 CP2

Discovered 1988 Feb. 11 by E. W. Elst at the European Southern Observatory.

Named for the famous Greek philosopher Thales of Miletus (c. 625-547 B.C.). None of Thales' writings has come down to us, but from Aristoteles we know that he was the first to suggest a single substratum (water) for the universe. The correct prediction of the solar eclipse of --584 May 28 contributed considerably to his reputation as an astronomer. Thales' significance, however, lies in the fact that he attempted to explain natural phenomena by causes within nature itself, rather than by caprices of anthropomorphic gods. He must be credited with at least five important geometrical theorems.

(6036) Weinberg = 1988 CV3

Discovered 1988 Feb. 13 by E. W. Elst at the European Southern Observatory.

Named in honor of Steven Weinberg, elementary-particle physicist and recipient of the 1979 Nobel Prize for Physics. Weinberg is considered one of the world's most creative scientists. He is also well known for his writings about science. In his latest book, {\it Dreams of a Final Theory}, he discusses quantum mechanics, beautiful theories, the weakness of philosophy and the honor of accepting a world without God.

(6123) Aristoteles = 1987 SH2

Discovered 1987 Sept. 19 by E. W. Elst at the Bulgarian National Observatory.

Named for Aristoteles (384-322 BC), one of the most significant Greek philosophers, charging the demerits of his philosophy on the level of the knowledge at his era and ascribing the misuse of his ideas to human weakness. He was the first, and possibly the greatest, theoretician of the mechanism of thought and deduction, being at the same time well aware of the importance of what happens in the real world and in nature. Citation prepared by A. Svarna and D. Sinachopoulos at the request of the discoverer. Proposal endorsed by V. Shkodrov.

(6183) Viscome = 1987 SF7

Discovered 1987 Sept. 26 by C. S. Shoemaker and E. M. Shoemaker at Palomar.

Named in honor of George R. Viscome (b. 1956), of Lake Placid, New York. A broadcast technician responsible for master control and videotape operations at a television station in Albany, Viscome is an accomplished astrometrist. His observations of this minor planet at the 1994 opposition were sufficient for numbering it. Name proposed by the discoverers, following a suggestion by G. V. Williams (who made the identification involving this object).

(6189) V\"olk = 1989 EY2

Discovered 1989 Mar. 2 by E. W. Elst at the European Southern Observatory.

Named in honour of Elisabeth V\"olk, secretary at the European Southern Observatory's headquarters in Garching, where she is chiefly responsible for the administration of the ESO Schmidt plates. During the July 1994 observing campaign on comet D/1993 F2 (Shoemaker-Levy 9) she did an excellent job solving so many problems that occurred at that hectic time. During all the years (1987-1994) of the Uccle-ESO observing program on minor planets she has become a very good friend to the discoverer. Proposal endorsed by L. D. Schmadel, who independently suggested naming a minor planet for Mrs.\ V\"olk.

[edit] June 28, 2005 update

Nikolay Zheleznov of the IPA was kind enough to look into the discrepancies I pointed out to him. His responses have been integrated in the text above, which resulted in some entries being reclassified.

Urhixidur 2005 June 28 14:27 (UTC)

Further update: the IPA pages currently (as I write this) transcribe the e-caron (ě, TeX \v e) as e-breve (ĕ, TeX \u e) in 11 of 12 cases. This has been reported and will probably be fixed shortly.

Urhixidur 2005 June 29 17:22 (UTC)

[edit] September 29, 2005 update

Just for the record, the diacriticals.txt used by AstOrb Browser use the IPA diacriticals with three exceptions:

• (8422) Mohorovi\v ci \'c
• (18624) Pr\'evert
• (20074) Laskersch\"uler

Urhixidur 02:46, 30 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] May 4, 2008 update

The IPA e-mail is not functional (my sendings bounce), so I'm unable to discuss further discrepancies with Nikolaj. The following errors currently mar the IPA pages:

• (33179) Ars\'enewenger (should be Ars\`enewenger)
• (58709) Zenocol\'o (should be Zenocol\`o)
• (72071) Gabor (should be G\'abor)

The correct spellings appear on the JPS SSD pages.

[edit] http://cfa-www.harvard.edu/iau/ECS/NewCitations.txt

The page's contents do not seem to be archived anywhere (it is replaced, not appended to!), so we'll have to do so here. Unless there's a better place --maybe Wikisource?

Urhixidur 00:38, 2005 July 23 (UTC)

It has now become apparent that these citations are becoming available online through the MPES (Minor Planet Ephemeris Service) and the JPL Small-Body Database Browser. References to the following "archives" will be progressively removed from the Meanings of asteroid names pages.

[edit] You've probably seen it, but...

I found this old list of minor planets with unknown names: http://www.astro.uni-bonn.de/~pbrosche/aa/enha/enha09.txt

I'm interested in the Meanings of asteroid names because a number of U.S. Navy ships from the WWII era were named after asteroids, and I'm putting articles about them on Wikipedia. The Navy historical sources didn't know much about asteroids, let alone the meanings of their names. They say things like "the ship was named after a heavenly body." Thanks to Wikipedia, there's now much more information about them. Lou Sander 15:52, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Questioning 343 Ostara

The asteroid is named Ostara, and it is said to be named after Eostre. If you follow the links, you will see that there is confusion between those two names -- one is not merely an alternative spelling of the other. I'm thinking that maybe the "named after Eostre" might not be 100% correct. Lou Sander 14:41, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Let's see what Herget says (I've yet to do asteroids 1 through 500 in the Meanings of asteroid names pages). Page 39: « Early Teutonic Goddess of Spring. The Easter rabbit was the escort of Ostara, who thus contributed the name Easter (German Ostern). (AP; RC) » The "(AP; RC)" bit means the entry was contributed by A. Paluzie-Borrell and R. C. Cameron. Seems the current entry is about right. I'l tweak it. Urhixidur 03:44, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
