Time/Frequency Analysis of Terrestrial Impack Crater Records [PDF]
The terrestrial impact cratering record recently has been examined in the time domain by Chang & Moon (2005). It was found that the ˜ 26 Myr periodicity in the impact cratering rate exists over the last ˜ 250 Myrs.

Nitric oxide (NO) is a critical indicator of energy deposition in the lower thermosphere because of its formational pathways. Thus, it is important to constrain sources of NO, such as meteoroid generated hypersonic flows below 95 km altitude.

SPACE DENSITY DISTRIBUTION OF METEOROIDS OVER THE SPHERE WITH RADIUS 1 A.U.
Space density distributions of meteoroids over the sphere with radius 1 AU and the centre in the Sun were found for meteoroid masses greater than 10-3 g, 10-2 g and 1 g.

The 2011 October Draconids Outburst. II. Meteoroid Chemical Abundances from Fireball Spectroscopy [PDF]
On October 8, 2011 the Earth crossed dust trails ejected from comet 21P/Giacobini-Zinner in the late 19th and early 20th Century. This gave rise to an outburst in the activity of the October Draconid meteor shower, and an international team was organized

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.

Context.A significant fraction of small meteors are produced by iron meteoroids. Their origin and the interaction with the atmosphere have not been well explained up to now.Aims.The goals of the study are to observe faint, slow, low altitude meteors, to identify candidates for iron meteoroids among them, to model their ablation and light curves, and to
