Английская Википедия:6144 Kondojiro
6144 Kondojiro (Шаблон:Mp) is an asteroid discovered on March 14, 1994 by Kin Endate and Kazuro Watanabe at the Kitami Observatory in eastern Hokkaidō, Japan. It is named after Jiro Kondo, a Japanese Egyptologist and professor of archaeology at Waseda University.
Orbit and classification
The orbit of 6144 Kondojiro is unusual for a number of reasons, including:
- An eccentricity greater than 0.3,
- A semi-major axis between that of an outer main-belt asteroid (3.2 AU < a < 4.6 AU) and a Jupiter trojan (4.6 AU < a < 5.5 AU),
- A relatively low inclination for a Jupiter-crossing minor planet, and
- A lack of proper orbital elements due to recurring perturbations by Jupiter.
It is difficult to classify an object with such a peculiar orbit using a conventional definition. Despite this, the Minor Planet Center (MPC) lists it as a main-belt asteroid,[1] even though both the orbital and physical properties of 6144 Kondojiro suggest that it may be an extinct comet rather than a true asteroid.[2] The JPL Small-Body Database lists only 33 such objects that have an observation arc greater than 30 days.[3]
