Oxygen line in fireball spectra and its application to satellite observations
V. Vojáček, J. Borovička, P. Spurný
Aims. Lightning mapper sensors on board weather satellites can be successfully used to observe fireballs. These sensors use a very narrow spectral band at 777nm, which is only a sm…
Data on 824 fireballs observed by the digital cameras of the European Fireball Network in 2017-2018. II. Analysis of orbital and physical properties of centimeter-sized meteoroids
J. Borovicka, P. Spurny, L. Shrbeny
Meteoroids impacting the Earth on a daily basis are fragments of asteroids and comets. By studying fireballs produced during their disintegration in the atmosphere, we can gain inf…
Data on 824 fireballs observed by the digital cameras of the European Fireball Network in 2017-2018. I. Description of the network, data reduction procedures, and the catalog
J. Borovicka, P. Spurny, L. Shrbeny +10
A catalog of 824 fireballs (bright meteors), observed by a dedicated network of all-sky digital photographic cameras in central Europe in the years 2017-2018 is presented. The stat…
Physical properties of Taurid meteoroids of various sizes
Jiri Borovicka, Pavel Spurny
The origin of the Taurid complex is still debated. In addition to comet 2P/Encke, various asteroids were proposed to be members of the complex and thus possible parent bodies of Ta…
The Maribo CM2 meteorite fall - survival of weak material at high entry speed
Jiri Borovicka, Olga Popova, Pavel Spurny
High entry speed (> 25 km/s) and low density (< 2500 kg/m3) are two factors that lower the chance of a meteoroid to drop meteorites. The 26 g carbonaceous (CM2) meteorite Maribo re…
On the age and formation mechanism of the core of the Quadrantid meteoroid stream
Abedin Abedin, Pavel Spurny, Paul Wiegert +3
The Quadrantid meteor shower is among the strongest annual meteor showers, and has drawn the attention of scientists for several decades. The stream is unusual, among others, for s…
Trajectory and orbit of the EN200204 Laskarzew fireball
Pavel Spurny, Arkadiusz Olech, Piotr Kedzierski
The fireball of -10 mag was observed over Poland on February 20, 2004 at 18:54 UT. Except many visual observations the event was caught by two photographic stations: one in the Cze…
