2728 asteroid positions (Kitab obs.)

Photographic observations of XX century contained numerous and varied information about all objects and events of the Universe fixed on the astronegatives. The original and interesting observations of small bodies of the Solar system in previous years can be selected and used for various scientific tasks. Existing databases and online services can help make such selection easily and quickly. The observations of chronologically earlier oppositions, photometric evaluation of brightness for long periods of time allow refining the orbits of asteroids and identifying various non-stationarities. Photographic observations of the Northern Sky Survey project (FON project) were used for global search for small bodies of Solar system. About 2000 photographic plates of Kitab part of the FON project were made using Double Wide Angle Astrograph at the Kitab observatory (Uzbekistan) during 1981-1989. Early, using that digitized observations the catalogue of equatorial coordinates and stellar magnitudes for more than 13 million stars and galaxies up to B=17.5m was compiled. At present, we analyzed all processing results for the search of asteroids and compiled the catalogue of equatorial coordinates and stellar magnitudes of them. As a result more than 4500 asteroids and comets with visual magnitude from 7.7m to 17.5m were identified now. All positions of asteroids were compared with ephemeris. A preliminary analysis of O-C differences was carried out. New and interesting are that the moments of official discovery of some identified asteroids much later than their moments of Kitab's observation. In addition, some of them are the earliest observations of these asteroids in the world among all known observations. More than 915 observations of such asteroids have been found on the plates of Kitab part of the FON project.
