Data Set Abstract |
The data set lists orbital and physical properties for
well-observed or suspected binary/multiple minor planets
including the Pluto system, as inspired by Richardson and Walsh
(2006) and similar reviews (Merline et al., 2003; Noll, 2006;
Pravec et al., 2006; Pravec and Harris, 2007; Descamps and
Marchis, 2008; Noll et al., 2008; Walsh, 2009). In total 202
companions in 191 systems are included. Data are presented in two
tables, one for orbital and physical properties and one for
companion designations, discovery information, and reference
codes for data values. Data are ordered by permanent number, then
provisional designation. This data set is complete for
binary/multiple components reported through 31 March 2011. |
