CAMO-S: A meteor-tracking spectrograph at the Canadian Automated Meteor Observatory

Michael Mazur, Margaret Campbell-Brown, Peter Brown +3

The Canadian Automated Meteor Observatory (CAMO) mirror tracking system has been in operation since 2009 and has, to date, produced more than 20,000 two-station meteor observations…

Properties of outer solar system pebbles during planetesimal formation from meteor observations

Peter Jenniskens, Paul R. Estrada, Stuart Pilorz +42

In the late stages of accretion leading up to the formation of planetesimals, particles grew to pebbles the size of 1-mm to tens of cm. That is the same size range that dominates t…

Development of a Very Faint Meteor Detection System based on an EMCCD Sensor and Matched Filter Processing

P. Gural, T. Mills, M. Mazur +1

The mass ranges of meteors, imaged by electro-optical (EO) cameras and backscatter radar receivers, for the most part do not overlap. Typical EO systems detect meteoroid masses dow…

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…

Estimating trajectories of meteors: an observational Monte Carlo approach -- II. Results

Denis Vida, Peter G. Brown, Margaret Campbell-Brown +2

In the first paper of this series we examined existing methods of optical meteor trajectory estimation and developed a novel method which simultaneously uses both the geometry and…

Estimating trajectories of meteors: an observational Monte Carlo approach -- I. Theory

Denis Vida, Peter S. Gural, Peter G. Brown +2

It has recently been shown by Egal et al. (2017) that some types of existing meteor in-atmosphere trajectory estimation methods may be less accurate than others, particularly when…

Dynamical modeling validation of parent bodies associated with newly discovered CMN meteor showers

Damir Šegon, Jérémie Vaubaillon, Peter S. Gural +4

Context: Results from previous searches for new meteor showers in the combined Croatian Meteor Network and SonotaCo meteor databases suggested possible parent bodies for several ne…
