Orbital element plots for all confirmed candidates for which we reported detections to the MPC and for which orbital elements were available in MPCORB.DAT. Orbital elements for comets are not shown, as they are not listed in MPCORB.DAT. Most objects are main-belt asteroids, but we also report several Jupiter Trojans and NEAs. Left: semimajor axis vs. eccentricity. Right: semimajor axis vs. inclination.
