Minor planets discovered: 224 [1]
credited by the MPC, as per September 2016

Paulo Renato Centeno Holvorcem (born 10 July 1967) is a Brazilian amateur astronomer and mathematician who lives in Brasilia, Brazil.

He is a prolific discoverer of asteroids. He is credited by the Minor Planet Center with the discovery or co-discovery (with Charles W. Juels) of about 197 minor planets between 1998 and 2010.[1]

Holvorcem with Juels also discovered two comets: C/2002 Y1 (Juels-Holvorcem) and C/2005 N1 (Juels-Holvorcem). Holvorcem was also involved in the discovery of C/2011 K1 (Schwartz-Holvorcem).[2]

The main-belt asteroid 13421 Holvorcem was named after him on 9 January 2001 (M.P.C. 41939).[3][4]

Paulo's SkySift[5] pipeline software is used by many observatories across the world for the detection of minor planets and transients.
