Meteoroid deceleration and the Fresnel characteristics
Description
The application is briefly described of the complete solution of the basic equations of meteoric physics, found during a study of photographic meteor theory, to the construction of theoretical Fresnel characteristics. It is shown how meteoroid deceleration can be incorporated in concepts of radar physics. The corresponding equations are derived and the possibility of using these Fresnel characteristics for the evaluation of ablation parameter σ and pre-atmospheric velocity v∞ from the registered amplitudes is briefly discussed.
