Searching database of minor planet names
The catalog of asteroids discovered at Klet can be searched in two ways. In the first one, pick a starting letter of asteroid's name from the listed alphabet. In the second way, start writing an expression to search (diacritics is allowed), and after at least three letters are typed, the results are automatically listed. The search can also be performed only on asteroid names, catalogue numbers, date of discovery or names of the discoverers.

Named in memory of the Czech astronomer Antonín Bečvář (1901-1965), founder and first director of the Skalnaté Pleso Observatory in Slovakia. Bečvář made observations of comets, meteors and the solar photosphere, but he is best known as the author of Atlas Coeli and the more detailed Atlases Eclipticalis, Borealis and Australis.
