Syuichi Nakano (中野 主一, Nakano Shuichi, born September 11, 1947) is a Japanese astronomer. He specializes in the study of comets, in particular calculating their orbits and making predictions about when periodic comets will return for another perihelion approach. It is considerably more difficult to predict the orbits of comets than of other types of Solar System objects, since their orbits are susceptible not only to perturbations from the planets but also to non-gravitational forces due to the release of gaseous material in the form of a comet's coma and tail.

He is affiliated with the Computing & Minor Planet Sections (Center for Astrodynamics) of the Oriental Astronomical Association in Sumoto, Japan.

He publishes the Nakano Notes on comet observations and ephemerides.

In 2001 he won the Amateur Achievement Award of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific. The asteroid 3431 Nakano is named after him, and asteroid 3983 Sakiko is named after his sister.

1026 Ingrid was reidentified in 1986 by Syuichi Nakano, ending its time as a lost asteroid.[1] 3568 ASCII is another long-lost asteroid whose recovery was made by Nakano.

Syuichi Nakano (中野 主一, Nakano Shuichi?), né le 11 septembre 1947, est un astronome amateur japonais, spécialiste de l'étude des comètes, en particulier du calcul de leurs orbites ainsi que des prédictions relativement au retour des comètes périodiques à leur périhélie. Il est beaucoup plus difficile de prédire les orbites des comètes que celles d'autres types d'objets du système solaire car leurs orbites sont susceptibles d'être affectées non seulement par les perturbations des planètes elles-mêmes mais aussi par des forces non-gravitationnelles dues à la libération de matière gazeuse sous la forme de coma et de la queue d'une comète.

Сюити Накано (яп. 中野 主一 Nakano Shuichi, 11 сентября 1947) — японский астроном. Специализируется на изучении комет, в частности на вычислении их орбит и прогнозировании того, когда периодические кометы вновь пройдут перигелий. Предсказать орбиты комет значительно труднее, чем орбиты других типов объектов Солнечной системы, поскольку их орбиты подвержены не только возмущениям со стороны планет, но и негравитационным силам из-за выделения газообразных материалов в виде комы и хвоста кометы.
