Meteor clusters: tracing meteoroid fragmentation in near-Earth space
Pavel Koten, David Čapek, Juraj Tóth +5
Meteor clusters are typically defined as groups of meteors that appear close together in both space and time. To date, only a handful of such events have been recorded instrumental…
Geminids are initially cracked by atmospheric thermal stress
Tomáš Henych, Jiří Borovička, David Čapek +4
Geminids have the highest bulk density of all major meteor showers and their mechanical strength appears to depend on their mass. They are also the most active annual shower, enabl…
A very young tau-Herculid meteor cluster observed during a 2022 shower outburst
Pavel Koten, David Čapek, Juraj Tóth +6
To date only very few meteor clusters have been instrumentally recorded. This means that every new detection is an important contribution to the understanding of these phenomena, w…
A satellite orbit drift in binary near-Earth asteroids (66391) 1999 KW4 and (88710) 2001 SL9 -- Indication of the BYORP effect
P. Scheirich, P. Pravec, P. Kušnirák +34
We obtained thorough photometric observations of two binary near-Earth asteroids (66391) Moshup = 1999 KW4 and (88710) 2001 SL9 taken from 2000 to 2019 and derived physical and dyn…
Asteroids' physical models from combined dense and sparse photometry and scaling of the YORP effect by the observed obliquity distribution
J. Hanuš, J. Ďurech, M. Brož +116
The larger number of models of asteroid shapes and their rotational states derived by the lightcurve inversion give us better insight into both the nature of individual objects and…
