Abstract
The influence of the observation errors distribution on the orbits of 22 asteroids potentially hazard for the Earth is considered. These asteroids have sufficiently great numbers of observations at a few last oppositions. Two methods were used: 1) the dispersions are determined taking into account the nonlinear propagation of errors, 2) the orbits and dispersions are determined by the method of least modules. For 13 asteroids the dispersion ellipsoids computed by the method of least modules is more real then the ones computed by the method of least squares. The dispersion ellipsoid calculated by the method taking into account the nonlinear relations is also more real. Orbits computed by the method of least modules is more accurate then ones computed by the method of least squares for 13 asteroid. Therefore the orbital parameters for newly discovered asteroids should be computed not only by the conventional method of least squares but also by the method of least modules

AB - The influence of the observation errors distribution on the orbits of
22 asteroids potentially hazard for the Earth is considered. These
asteroids have sufficiently great numbers of observations at a few
last oppositions. Two methods were used: 1) the dispersions are
determined taking into account the nonlinear propagation of errors,
2) the orbits and dispersions are determined by the method of least
modules. For 13 asteroids the dispersion ellipsoids computed by the
method of least modules is more real then the ones computed by the
method of least squares. The dispersion ellipsoid calculated by the
method taking into account the nonlinear relations is also more real.
Orbits computed by the method of least modules is more accurate then
ones computed by the method of least squares for 13 asteroid.
Therefore the orbital parameters for newly discovered asteroids
should be computed not only by the conventional method of least
squares but also by the method of least modules
