Abstract
Low-light-level television systems have shown considerable promise in the optical extension of meteor flux measurements to faint magnitudes. In particular, the secondary electron conduction vidicon has demonstrated its ability to detect fast, faint meteors. Such a system has been calibrated and used to obtain the cumulative flux of meteors above threshold masses of .1 to .001 gram. The results indicate a basic continuity with photographic and satellite measurements. The observed data were further analyzed for diurnal and directional effects.-
