"The Fourteenth General Assembly of the International Astronomical Union was held in Brighton, England, in 1970. During the conference, arrangements were made to hold a colloquium on "The Evolutionary and Physical Problems of Meteoroids." An invitation was issued by the State University of New York at Albany (SUNYA) and the Dudley Observatory to host the meeting. C.L. Hemenway, P.M. Millman, and A.F. Cook were selected to organize the program. IAU Colloquium No. 13 was held June 14-17, 1971, at the State University of New York at Albany. Forty papers were presented and are included in this volume."--Preface.

Correspondingly, the mean free path of the gas molecules is of the order of 1 m or more so that little error is made in applying Epstein's law up to perhaps s=10 m, while to about the same limit the diffusion slowing of the accretion rate by the second term of equation (13) can be neglected. Hence, by equation (15), the time...

الصفحة 141 - Perseid showers indicate a relationship between the frequency of occurrence of the oxygen line and solar activity. In 1969-70, near sunspot maximum, the strength of this so-called auroral green line is greatest near shower maximum, as though the nature of the meteoroids were a function of their distance from the core of the stream, or, alternatively, the strength of the green line were a function of the altitude of the radiant. SINCE 1948, A...
الصفحة 147 - Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory Cambridge, Massachusetts AND CL HEMENWAY State University of New York at Albany and Dudley Observatory Albany, New York The spectra of 25 meteors, recorded with an image-orthicon technique in December 1969, are studied in relation to similar records made in August of the same year. Of 19 Geminid meteors in the absolute visual magnitude range 0 to +2, only one showed any evidence of the forbidden line of oxygen at 5577 A, while all Perseid meteors recorded in...
الصفحة 45 - Since the advent of low-light-level television (LLLTV) systems, it has been recognized that such devices offer the ability to observe meteors as faint as 10th magnitude which allows the extension of optical meteor data to masses as small as 10~4 gram. The Space Sciences Laboratory at Marshall Space Flight Center has been actively engaged in such observations using image orthicons and intensified SEC vidicons. The results of these observations are presented along with an interpretation in terms of...

The spectra from the 1961 shower were classified into four groups on the basis of the presence of certain spectral lines as follows: Group 1 — The H and K lines of ionized calcium Group 2 — The magnesium triplet at 5175 A, the auroral green line of neutral oxygen at 5577 A, the D line of sodium, and a calcium-iron blend near 6170 A Group 3 — Only the D line of sodium and the blend at 6170 A Group 4 — Only the D line of sodium In 1961 these four categories...
