Fernand Rigaux (1905 – 21 September 1962) was a Belgian astronomer and observer of variable stars , minor planets and comets at the Royal Observatory at Uccle, Belgium .[2] [3]
In 1951, he co-discovered the periodic comet 49P/Arend-Rigaux with his colleague Sylvain Arend .[4] He is also credited by the Minor Planet Center with the discovery of 8 asteroids between 1933 and 1941.[1] [5]
The asteroid 19911 Rigaux , discovered by himself at Uccle in 1933, was named in his memory.[3] Naming citation was published on 25 December 2015 (M.P.C. 97568 ).[6]
