Dual-Status Objects

A small number of objects have "dual status", that is they have both minor planet and comet designations. The current list of such objects is given below. In all cases, astrometric observations of these objects should be reported under the minor planet designations.

Packed designations
Minor        Comet
Planet
02060        0095P    (2060) Chiron = 95P/Chiron
04015        0107P    (4015) Wilson-Harrington = 107P/Wilson-Harrington
07968        0133P    (7968) Elst-Pizarro = 133P/Elst-Pizarro
60558        0174P   (60558) Echeclus = 174P/Echeclus
B8401        0176P  (118401) LINEAR = 176P/LINEAR
W3137        0282P  (323137) 2003 BM80 = 282P/2003 BM80
U0163        0288P  (300163) 2006 VW139 = 288P/2006 VW139
j7175        0362P  (457175) 2008 GO98 = 362P/2008 GO98
O8370        0433P  (248370) 2005 QN173 = 433P/2005 QN173
