Abstract
AbstractThe occurrence of fragmenting particles was investigated from radar observations of the Perseids at Ondřejov Observatory. Diurnal patterns of fragmenting meteoroids are presented. Their minimum occurrence coincides with the culmination of the Perseid radiant while the maximum appears at the time of sunset at meteor heights. Solar longitude of the main contribution of fragmenting meteoroids at L⊙ = 138°86±0°04 (equinox 1950.0) fits with the peak activity of the new filament in the stream. This supports the concept of the low age of the filament. The maximum proportion of fragmenting particles occurred in 1991.
