[meteorite-list] meteor velocity

Hi Geoge Z. and Marco L.   Thanks for your info and comments on meteor velocities. Marco, tks for calling my attention on to Hills & Goda's paper on "Asteroids in the Atmosphere" - some 30 pages!  I am still going thru them. The diagrams plus the respective explanations given in this paper,

Hi George Z. and Marco L. (and List),   Many, many thanks for all your interesting info on the relative meteor velocities and on their possible asteroidal or cometary origins. I suppose that the Earth's gravitational attraction onto these meteoroids would not account too much, on their slow,

Hi George,   Sorry for the delay in writting back to you. Many thanks for your interesting, prompt explanation! I am aware about the +- minimum amd maximum relative orbital speeds that meteors can attain on atmosphere entering, depending on how they encounter Earth. What surprised me was that

    Hello Jose,Iâm not sure of the source...perhaps from IMOâs Meteor Observing Guidebook? I donât have a copy handy anymore, So Iâm gonna try to wing it with the interpretation that I got from it all. Basically, meteoroids coming from parent objects in the asteroid belt, have a relatively slow o
