High precision meteor observations with the Canadian Automated Meteor Observatory -- Data reduction pipeline and application to meteoroid mechanical strength measurements
Denis Vida, Peter G. Brown, Margaret Campbell-Brown +3
Context. The mirror tracking system of the Canadian Automated Meteor Observatory (CAMO) can track meteors in real time, providing an effective angular resolution of 1 arc second an…
Modeling the past and future activity of the Halleyids meteor showers
Auriane Egal, Paul Wiegert, Peter G. Brown +2
We present a new numerical model of the eta-Aquariid and Orionid meteor showers. The model investigates the origin, variability and age of the eta-Aquariid and Orionid apparitions…
Precision measurements of radar transverse scattering speeds from meteor phase characteristics
Michael Mazur, Petr Pokorny, Peter Brown +5
We describe an improved technique for using the backscattered phase from meteor radar echo measurements just prior to the specular point () to calculate meteor speeds and th…
Realistic gravitational focusing of meteoroid streams
Althea V. Moorhead, Tiffany D. Clements, Denis Vida
The number density and flux of a meteoroid stream is enhanced near a massive body due to the phenomenon known as gravitational focusing. The greatest enhancement occurs directly op…
A new method for measuring the meteor mass index: application to the 2018 Draconid meteor shower outburst
Denis Vida, Margaret Campbell-Brown, Peter G. Brown +2
Context. Several authors predicted an outburst of the Draconid meteor shower in 2018, but with an uncertain level of activity. Aims. Optical meteor observations were used to derive…
