On 2020 September 18 US Government sensors detected a bolide with peak bolometric magnitude of -19 over the western Pacific. The impact was also detected by the Geostationary Light…
An observational synthesis of the Taurid meteor complex
A. Egal, P. G. Brown, P. Wiegert +1
We provide an overview of the observational properties of the four major Taurid showers, namely the Northern and Southern Taurids (#017 NTA and #002 STA), the Beta Taurids (#173 BT…
Iron Rain: measuring the occurrence rate and origin of small iron meteoroids at Earth
Tristan Mills, P. G. Brown, M. J. Mazur +3
We report results of a four-year survey using Electron Multiplied Charged Coupled Device (EMCCD) cameras recording 34761 two-station video meteor events complete to a limiting magn…
A dynamical analysis of the Taurid Complex: evidence for past orbital convergences
A. Egal, P. Wiegert, P. G. Brown +3
The goal of this work is to determine if the dynamics of individual Taurid Complex (TC) objects are consistent with the formation of the complex via fragmentation of a larger body,…
