Notes. The successive columns signify (1) – comet designation, (2) – epoch, i.e. osculation date, (3) – perihelion time [TT], (4) – perihelion distance, (5) – eccentricity, (6) – argument of perihelion (in degrees), equinox 2000.0, (7) – longitude of the ascending node (in degrees), equinox 2000.0, (8) – inclination (in degrees), equinox 2000.0, (9) – inverse original semi-major axis in units of 10-6 au-1.
