Discovery: IAUC 3833
This comet was discovered on three images obtained by the Infrared Astronomical Satellite on 1983 June 28.76, 28.83, and 28.90. J. Davies announced the discovery and measured the comet's position. A confirmation was immediately obtained by J. Gibson (Palomar Observatory, California, USA) on June 30.48. His photograph with the 1.2-
Recovery:
Using 95 observations obtained from 1983 June 30 to 1984 Feb. 22, K. Muraoka predicted the comet would next return to perihelion on 1996 Oct. 31.65. The orbital period was given as 13.30 years. The comet was recovered on 1996 August 8.71, when Q. A. Parker (Siding Spring, Australia) photographed it with the U. K. Schmidt telescope. The magnitude was then estimated as 13 and the position indicated the predicted perihelion date needed corrected by -
