    Asteroids as the parent bodies of meteorites: compositional
    Due to their orbits, near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) have been considered the most evident parent bodies of meteorites. Dynamical models show that NEAs come...

    Dependence of the population index on the radiant zenithal distance
    By integrating the differential equation system of the single-body meteor theory which describes meteor flight in the atmosphere, we show that the population...

    Effects of a dependence of meteor brightness on the entry angle.
    In this paper we discuss the observational consequences of a dependence of meteor brightness on the entry angle z_R_, namely the decrease of the observed rates...
