Meech Comet Database - Summary

This page is a summary table of all the comet imaging data in my data archive. This represents data on a total of 141 comets, centaurs and KBOs contained within 15,149 images. The total integration time represented is 1120.5 hours or 46.7 days, and the dataset is almost 0.5 terabytes in size (not including any associated calibration frames).

To get detailed information on each comet, click on the comet name. The images in the comet tables are place holders - eventually I would like to put the actual comet images in the tables. Space has been left to indicate the status of the reductions and publication, and whether or not calibration data is needed, as not all of the data were obtained under photometric conditions. These pages will serve as finder charts for calibrating the data while at the telescope, once the pages are finished.
