The origin of short-lived radioactive nuclei at the time of the formation of the Sun is a much debated mystery in modern astronomy. We show that abundance...
Due to their orbits, near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) have been considered the most evident parent bodies of meteorites. Dynamical models show that NEAs come...
Traditionally, astronomers study stars and planets by telescope. But we can also learn about them by using a microscope – through studying meteorites. From...
Aims: Prior to 2019, the June epsilon Ophiuchids (JEO) were known as a minor unconfirmed meteor shower with activity that was considered typically moderate for...
By integrating the differential equation system of the single-body meteor theory which describes meteor flight in the atmosphere, we show that the population...
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...
La madrugada del 4 de enero el proyecto europeo Interreg EELabs retransmitirá la lluvia de meteoros de las Cuadrántidas desde el Observatorio del Teide, del...
Meteor and fireball observations are key to the derivation of both the inventory and physical characterization of small solar system bodies orbiting in the...
La noche del 21 de abril disfrutaremos del máximo de la lluvia de estrellas de las Líridas. Eso sí, al igual que con los últimos eventos astronómicos, lo...
