Lunar impact flashes from Geminids, analysis of luminous efficiencies and the flux of large meteoroids on Earth
Jose L. Ortiz, Jose M. Madiedo, Nicolas Morales +2
We analyze lunar impact flashes recorded by our team during runs in December 2007, 2011, 2013 and 2014. In total, 12 impact flashes with magnitudes ranging between 7.1 and 9.3 in V…
MIDAS: Software for the detection and analysis of lunar impact flashes
José M. Madiedo, José L. Ortiz, Nicolás Morales +1
Since 2009 we are running a project to identify flashes produced by the impact of meteoroids on the surface of the Moon. For this purpose we are employing small telescopes and high…
Spectroscopy of a κ-Cygnid fireball afterglow
José M. Madiedo
A bright fireball with an absolute magnitude of -10.5 0.5 was recorded over the South of Spain on August 15, 2012. The atmospheric trajectory, radiant and heliocentric orbit…
Analysis of Moon impact flashes detected during the 2012 and 2013 Perseids
José M. Madiedo, José L. Ortiz, Faustino Organero +4
We present the results of our Moon impact flashes detection campaigns performed around the maximum activity period of the Perseid meteor shower in 2012 and 2013. Just one flash pro…
The -Geminid meteoroid stream: orbits, spectroscopic data and implications for its parent body
Jose M. Madiedo
By using an array of high-sensitivity CCD video devices and spectrographs, the activity of meteor events from the poorly-known -Geminid meteoroid stream has been monitored durin…
