Vincenzo Silvano Casulli (born 1944; usually known as Silvano Casulli) is an Italian astronomer. He is credited by the Minor Planet Center with the discovery of 192 minor planets.[1] In 1985 he served on a team involved in using the Hubble Space Telescope in a study that focused on Transition Comets—UV Search for OH Emissions in Asteroids. The asteroid 7132 Casulli was named in his honor.[2]
Asteroids
He was the first amateur astronomer to obtain precise astronometric positions of minor planets using a CCD camera. He is a prolific discoverer of asteroids. In 1997, the inner main-belt asteroid and member of the Flora family, 7132 Casulli, was named by astronomer Antonio Vagnozzi in his honor (M.P.C. 30800).[2][3]
9121 Stefanovalentini
On 24 February 1998, he discovered 9121 Stefanovalentini at the Italian Colleverde Observatory. It is a carbonaceous asteroid from the outer regions of the main-belt, approximately 30 kilometers in diameter.[4][5] Casulli also obtained a light-curve from phtometric observations and determined a period of 11.84 hours for the body's rotation.[5][6] He named it in honour of amateur astronomer Stefano Valentini.[7]
93061 Barbagallo
Together with Italian astronomer Ermes Colombini and others, he co-discovered the asteroid 93061 Barbagallo on 23 September 2000. The group-discovery is credited to the discovering observatory, Osservatorio San Vittore, Bologna. The asteroid was named after Mariano Barbagallo, an Italian colleague and friend of Colombini.[8]
