Catastrophic disruption of asteroid 2023 CX1 and implications for planetary defense
Auriane Egal, Denis Vida, François Colas +94
Mitigation of the threat from airbursting asteroids requires an understanding of the potential risk they pose for the ground. How asteroids release their kinetic energy in the atmo…
Mechanical strength distribution in Geminid meteoroids derived via fireball modeling
Tomáš Henych, Jiří Borovička, Vlastimil Vojáček +1
Geminids are the most active annual meteor shower observed on Earth. Their parent is an active asteroid, (3200) Phaethon, which is a target of the planned DESTINY+ mission of the J…
Properties, age, and origin of a huge meteor cluster observed over Scandinavia on 30 October 2022
Pavel Koten, David Čapek, Steinar Midtskogen +3
A meteor outburst consisting of at least 22 meteors above the Baltic sea and southern Scandinavia that occurred on 30 October 2022 was recorded using multiple cameras. A bright fir…
Tau-Herculid meteor shower on night 30/31 May, 2022, and properties of the meteoroids
Pavel Koten, Lukáš Shrbený, Pavel Spurný +5
A tau-Herculid meteor outburst or even a storm was predicted by several models to occur around 5~UT on 31~May, 2022 as a consequence of the break-up of comet 73P/Schwassmann-Wachma…
Semi-automatic meteoroid fragmentation modeling using genetic algorithms
Tomáš Henych, Jiří Borovička, Pavel Spurný
Meteoroids are pieces of asteroids and comets. They serve as unique probes to the physical and chemical properties of their parent bodies. We can derive some of these properties wh…
Ejection velocities, age, and formation process of SPE meteoroid cluster
David Čapek, Pavel Koten, Pavel Spurný +1
We follow our previous work about the September epsilon Perseid (SPE) meteoroid cluster from 2016. We assumed that the mass-dominated meteoroid is the parent body of the cluster an…
Properties of Alpha Monocerotid meteors from the observation of the 2019 outburst in the Czech Republic
Lukáš Shrbený, Jiří Borovička, Pavel Koten +4
We observed the predicted outburst of the Alpha Monocerotid (AMO) meteor shower on 2019 November 22 with our modernized video and photographic cameras. Due to the short duration an…
Search for pairs and groups in the 2006 Geminid meteor shower
Pavel Koten, David Čapek, Pavel Spurný +3
The question of the existence of pairs and groups among the meteor showers is opened for a long time. The double station video observation of the 2006 Geminid meteor shower, one of…
