A THEORETICAL STUDY OF METEORIC TRAJECTORIES AND PROCESSES, INCLUDING EXAMINATION OF THE INCIDENCE AND CHARACTERISTICS OF PHOTOGRAPHIC METEORS BY REDUCTION OF ABOUT 600 DATA POINTS.

Abstract

A total of 415 pairs of Super-Schmidt Meteor Camera Films were measured and reduced. Of these 415 meteors, 363 were successfully processed through the computation of orbital elements. Tables and figures representing the major distillation of the results of these measures are presented.
