4187s

4187s is an alphanumeric designation that appears in several unrelated cataloging schemes. There is no single, universally recognized entity known simply as "4187s," and its meaning is determined by the context in which it is used. In practice, the suffix may indicate a variant, a supplementary identifier, or a plural grouping within a family of items that share the base number 4187.

In astronomy, objects are typically labeled with a numeric designation and sometimes a name or provisional designation; the number 4187 would identify a specific object such as a minor planet, if officially assigned. The appended lower-case "s" does not align with standard astronomical naming conventions. Therefore, "4187s" is not an established designation in major astronomical databases and, if encountered, is likely a typographic shorthand, a local catalog entry, or a designation used in a non-official list rather than a formal astronomical object.

In manufacturing and product catalogs, similar configurations are common: a base part number followed by a suffix can denote a variant, material, or regional version. In such contexts, "4187s" could refer to a variant of a component labeled "4187" in a specific product line. Without a given manufacturer or catalog, the exact meaning remains ambiguous.

Disambiguation typically requires additional context, such as the domain, organization, or accompanying descriptors. If you can provide the field or source where "4187s" appears, a more precise explanation can be offered. See also 4187 and related catalog numbers.
