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…
