Leonid fluxes: 1994–1998 activity patterns

Abstract

Abstract— The Leonid meteor shower was observed worldwide in 1998 November in an intensive campaign without precedent. During this international effort ∼35 500 meteors were reported by members and collaborators of the International Meteor Organization (IMO) using a standard methodology. Despite the absence of a meteor storm in 1998, the rich observational data allow us to obtain a detailed unprecedented knowledge of the stream structure between 1994 and 1998.
