As minor planet discoveries are confirmed, they are given a permanent number by the IAU's Minor Planet Center (MPC), and the discoverers can then submit names for them, following the IAU's naming conventions. The list below concerns those minor planets in the specified number-range that have received names, and explains the meanings of those names.
Based on Paul Herget's The Names of the Minor Planets,[6] Schmadel also researched the unclear origin of numerous asteroids, most of which had been named prior to World War II. This article incorporates text from this source, which is in the public domain: SBDB New namings may only be added to this list below after official publication as the preannouncement of names is condemned.[7] The WGSBN publishes a comprehensive guideline for the naming rules of non-cometary small Solar System bodies.[8]
Catalina Sky Survey is one of the most successful programs discovering minor planets. It began operations in April 1998, with prominence given to the search of near-Earth object. The program utilizes a 0.76-m Schmidt telescope located on Mt. Bigelow in the Catalina Mountains north of Tucson, Arizona.
Sanduk Ruit (born 1954) is a visionary Nepalese ophthalmologist who founded the Tilganga Eye Centre in Kathmandu. He also created the Himalayan Cataract Project, which had cured hundreds of thousands of cataract patients in poor countries
Vivian Wing-Wah Yam (Yam Wing Wah, born 1963) is a chemistry professor at the University of Hong Kong. Her research interests are optoelectronic materials, photochromic and photoswitching materials. She won the 13th L´Oréal-UNESCO Women in Science Awards 2011
Irish McCalla (1929–2002) was an American film actress and artist. She produced over 1000 paintings and numerous limited-edition lithographs. She was a member of Woman Artists of the American West. Her art often featured themes from the Old West and the sweet innocence of youth.
Ai Weiwei (born 1957) is a Chinese artist and architectural designer. His most famous design was the Beijing National Stadium, more commonly called the Bird's Nest, the main stadium of the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing
Pasquale Panuzzo (born 1972), an Italian astronomer working for the development of the SPIRE instrument of ESA's Herschel mission. His research interests are population synthesis models for dusty galaxies, H II regions, star formation, the ages of early-type galaxies and Spitzer data.
