3D/Biela and the Andromedids: Fragmenting versus Sublimating Comets [PDF]
Comet 3D/Biela broke up in 1842/1843 and continued to disintegrate in the returns of 1846 and 1852. When meteor storms were observed in November of 1872 and 1885, it was surmised that those showers were the debris from that breakup.
