FRIPON:a worldwide network to track incoming meteoroids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Context: Until recently, camera networks designed for monitoring fireballs worldwide were not fully automated, implying that in case of a meteorite fall, the recovery campaign was rarely immediate.

The Colour Analysis of Meteors Using the Desert Fireball Network [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Meteors have long been studied to determine their origins, whether it be the initial curiosity of ‘What is this bright light streaking across the sky?’, or where these chunks of celestial rocks come from in our Solar system.

Analysis of CN emission as a marker of organic compounds in meteoroids using laboratory simulated meteors

open access: yes, 2023
Fragments of small solar system bodies entering Earth's atmosphere have possibly been important contributors of organic compounds to the early Earth.

Characterization of the Fireballs Detected by All-sky Cameras in Romania [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
International audienceSome of the fields of research that have captured the persistent interest of both scientists and the general public are meteor phenomena. The main goal in the study of meteoroid impacts into Earth's atmosphere is the recovery of the

Sæt jagten ind på stjernestøv, og find din egen mikrometeorit:De færreste meteoritter bliver fundet af mennesker. Men med en kost, en fejebakke, en magnet og et mikroskop kan du selv indlede jagten.

open access: yes, 2023
Short review article on meteoroids, meteors and meteorites with the aim to announce a Citizen Science workshop at the University of Southern Denmark where you can find your own micrometeorite.

Semi-automatic meteoroid fragmentation modeling using genetic algorithms

open access: yes, 2023
Meteoroids are pieces of asteroids and comets. They serve as unique probes to the physical and chemical properties of their parent bodies. We can derive some of these properties when meteoroids collide with the atmosphere of Earth and become a meteor or ...

Araguainha Dome, Brazil: A polygonal impact structure due to a complex pre‐impact regional structural framework

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract We investigated the structural framework of the north–northwestern Paraná Basin in Brazil to test whether the pre‐impact structures in this region may have had any influence on the first‐order formation and morphostructure of the Araguainha impact structure (AIS).

Lunar ejecta as the missing piece to resolving lunar cratering asymmetry

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
The leading-trailing asymmetry in lunar crater distribution provides a critical record of inner Solar System dynamics, yet the long-standing discrepancy between the observed higher asymmetry and lower theoretical predictions indicates a gap in our ...

Revisiting the Hummeln structure, Sweden—A shallow marine Cambrian impact structure

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Hummeln is a simple impact structure located in south‐eastern Sweden. It is approximately 1.2 km in diameter and almost completely covered by a lake. Here, we present the first detailed investigation of impactites and mapping of the 164.25 m deep drill core Hummeln‐1 with a focus on impact metamorphism and the impact process.
