list of possible dwarf planets : ウィキペディア英語版 | list of possible dwarf planets
It is estimated that there may be 200 dwarf planets in the Kuiper belt of the outer Solar System and up to 10,000 in the region beyond.〔"Today we know of more than a dozen dwarf planets in the solar system () it is estimated that the ultimate number of dwarf planets we will discover in the Kuiper Belt and beyond may well exceed 10,000".(The PI's Perspective )〕 The International Astronomical Union (IAU) has accepted four of these: , , , and , as well as in the inner Solar System. This article lists these and the more likely of the remaining known possibilities. == IAU naming procedures ==
In 2008, the IAU modified its naming procedures such that objects considered most likely to be dwarf planets receive differing treatment than others. Objects that have an absolute magnitude (H) less than +1 (and hence a minimum diameter of if the albedo is below 100%) are overseen by two naming committees, one for minor planets and one for planets. Once named, the objects are declared to be dwarf planets. Makemake and Haumea are the only objects to have proceeded through the naming process as presumed dwarf planets; currently there are no other bodies that meet this criterion. All other bodies are named by the minor-planet naming committee alone, and the IAU has not stated how or if they will be accepted as dwarf planets.
