Abstract

The Apparatus of the Engel'gardt Astronomical Observatory for Radar Observations of Meteors, by K. V. Kostylev, Yu. A. Pupyshev, and V. V. Sidorov: The article describes the recording unit of the KGU-M2 apparatus, which makes it possible to record on motion picture film the basic data on meteor activity, and also the disstribution of radar echoes at three amplitude levels. A Survey of Radar Observations of Meteor Activity, by Yu. A. Pupyshev: A survey is given of systematic radar observations of meteors on the 4.2 meter band at the Engel'gardt Astronomical Observatory from May 1956 through August 1958. A relationship was derived between the duration of the echo and the state of the ionosphere.
