CHELYABINSK METEOROID ACOUSTIC EFFECTS [PDF]

open access: yesRadio Physics and Radio Astronomy, 2017
Purpose: The parameters (period, time delay, celerity, duration, and the rate of attenuation) of the acoustic signal which was generated during the Chelyabinsk meteoroid passage and explosion on February 15, 2013 are investigated along with atmospheric ...

The velocity of meteoroids: a historical review [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2004
Determining the velocity of meteoroids as they enter the Earth's atmosphere is very important since the value is fundamental in calculating the orbit of the meteoroid and hence eventually its origin.

3D meteoroid trajectories [PDF]

open access: yesIcarus, 2019
Meteoroid modelling of fireball data typically uses a one dimensional model along a straight line triangulated trajectory. The assumption of a straight line trajectory has been considered an acceptable simplification for fireballs, but it has not been rigorously tested.

The Dynamics of Meteoroid Streams [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1992
Meteor showers are seen at regular and frequent intervals on Earth. They are caused by meteoroids (that is small dust grains) in a coherent stream, all moving on similar heliocentric orbits, burning up on encountering the atmosphere of the Earth. Such streams contain 1012 or more meteoroids, with the mass of the visible meteoroids ranging up to about 1

Exclusive Seismoacoustic Detection and Characterization of an Unseen and Unheard Fireball Over the North Atlantic

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Small meteoroids that enter Earth's atmosphere often go unnoticed because their detection and characterization rely on human observations, introducing observational biases in space and time.

Modern radar techniques and the hazard of meteoroids to space platforms

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 1998
Modern radar techniques, and in particular ground based radars, are a powerful tool to observe space objects (natural meteoroids and artificial space debris) on account of their all-weather and day-and-night performance.

Russian meteorite of the Bronze Age (rock record) [PDF]

open access: yesArchaeoastronomy and Ancient Technologies, 2014
This paper presents the results of the study of petroglyphs found in the quartzite grotto near the Skelnovsky small village in the Northern Black Sea in the South of Russia. The aim of the study was the analysis and interpretation of the Early Bronze Age

SUPERBOLIDES - DELIVERY TO THE EARTH THE SUBSTANCE OF SMALL BODIES OF SOLAR SYSTEM

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2012
The existence of the cometary meteoroid streams containing m-sized, high-strength meteoriteproducing meteoroids that open a pathway to deliver primitive materials to the Earth are considered. The light curve, mechanism of ablation and physical properties

Geomagnetic effect of the Bering Sea meteoroid

open access: yesRussian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2020
Possibilities of studies of the geomagnetic effects produced by the interaction of a cosmic bodies with the magnetosphere-ionosphere-atmosphere system are very limited due to extremely small number of examined events.
