Notes. The data under “Site” are the IAU observatory code. Data in columns N1 and N2 show the number of each type of observed coordinate we used in our fitting process. The RMS1 and RMS2 columns show the root mean square of the post-fit residuals from our orbit-fitting process after outlier rejection through the Isolation Forest algorithm. We assigned the weights to each data group in accordance with the RMS1 and RMS2 of the post-fit residuals. For the coordinate position angle p, the unit is in degrees. And for other types, the unit is in arcseconds.

Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.

Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.

Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
