The Comets of 2001: Part 2

This is the second part of the twelfth report in the annual series which gives for each comet: the discovery details, orbital data and general information, magnitude parameters and BAA Comet Section observations. Further details of the analysis techniques used in this report are given in an earlier paper. Ephemerides for the comets predicted to return during the year can be found in the BAA or International Comet Quarterly (ICQ) Handbooks.
