Observations in this purple color are either very noisy or only short term and thus are not reliable.
Name - Object provisional designation, object number, and object name.
Class - C=Classical, R=Resonant, S=Scattered.
H - The absolute magnitude of the object.
Amp - The peak to peak amplitude of the object.
Single Per. - The single peaked period of the object.
Double Per. - The double peaked period of the object.
Reference - References for lightcurve observations.
