The First in a New Series of Leonid Outbursts
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 27 February 2018
Abstract
The Leonids returned with higher than usual rates in November 1994. From an analysis of the available visual and radio forward m teor scatter observations, it is found that the meteor stream activity curve and the magnitude distribution index are similar to those of the outbursts in 1961 and 1965 during the previous return of the parent comet. It is possible that the outburst was due to the same dust component or dust with a similar stream evolution history.
