Close Approaches of Potentially Hazardous Asteroids during Two Centuries

Jiang-Hui Ji, Lin Liu

Abstract

Abstract Asteroids are the most important small bodies in the solar system and the near-earth asteroids (NEAs) are of especial concern to the world. The reason is that they will make close approaches to the earth in the near future. We use a reasonable dynamical model and an efficient computing method to calculate the orbits of over 160 Potentially Hazardous Asteroids (PHAs) for two centuries.
