| see § List of discovered minor planets |
Dmitry Nikolayevich Chestnov (also known as Dmitrij Nikolaevič Čestnov; Russian: Дмитрий Николаевич Честнов) is a Russian astronomer, observer and photometrist of comets and discoverer of minor planets. He lives in Saransk, the capital city of the Republic of Mordovia, Russia.[2]
He is credited by the Minor Planet Center with the discovery of several minor planets during 2009–2010, all in collaboration with Russian astronomer and colleague Artyom Novichonok at Tzec Maun Observatory (H10) in Mayhill, New Mexico.[1]
According to the Comet Observation database (COBS), which is maintained by the Slovenian Črni Vrh Observatory, Dmitry Chestnov has submitted dozens of observations of comets under his user code "CHE09".[3][4] Several cometary observations, including those of the hyperbolic comet C/2009 O4 (HILL) he took at Tzec Maun's southern station (D25) in Pingelly, Western Australia.[5][6] He also participated in the recovery of periodic comet 246P/NEAT at the Kislovodsk Mountain Astronomical Station of Pulkovo Observatory (D20) in November 2011 (M.P.C. 72435).[7][8] He has published a large number of secular lightcurves of comets on his Comet Light Curve Refinement Program (LiCuRG) website.[9]
His Apollo and Amor near-Earth object observations, published in MPC's Minor Planet Electronic Circulars during 2009–2011, include 2011 VW5 (MPC), 2011 AO52 (MPC), 2010 WB (MPC), 2009 OC (MPC), 2010 RP80 (MPC), and 2010 JE88 (MPC).[10][11][12][13][14][15]
