He has also been acknowledged for his numerous estimates and measurements of brightness and positions of comets and variable stars, as well as position measurements of minor planets.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Astronomical Society of the Pacific ) 〕 In 1993 he co-discovered (with Jan Kyselý) new variable star ES UMa.〔 〕 He is a member of the Czech Astronomical Society.
