Computing optical meteor flux using Global Meteor Network data
Denis Vida, Rhiannon C. Blaauw Erskine, Peter G. Brown +3
Meteor showers and their outbursts are the dominant source of meteoroid impact risk to spacecraft on short time scales. Meteor shower prediction models depend on historical observa…
Iron Rain: measuring the occurrence rate and origin of small iron meteoroids at Earth
Tristan Mills, P. G. Brown, M. J. Mazur +3
We report results of a four-year survey using Electron Multiplied Charged Coupled Device (EMCCD) cameras recording 34761 two-station video meteor events complete to a limiting magn…
The Global Meteor Network -- Methodology and First Results
Denis Vida, Damir Šegon, Peter S. Gural +10
The Global Meteor Network (GMN) utilizes highly sensitive low-cost CMOS video cameras which run open-source meteor detection software on Raspberry Pi computers. Currently, over 450…
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…
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…
