Detailed analysis of the fireball 20160317_031654 over the United Kingdom
Original language description
On March 17, 2016 in the early morning hours the UKMON network (United Kingdom Meteor Observation Network) cameras recorded a bright fireball with an absolute magnitude of -12.5 ± 0.4m, its atmospheric path began above the Dorset County and ended up above the Oxford County in the southern part of England. This fireball belonging to the Northern March gamma Virginids (IAU MDC #749 NMV) meteor shower was recorded from 8 cameras of the UKMON network. The atmospheric path of the bolide and the heliocentric orbit of the meteoroid are analyzed in this article. The flight of the fireball, whose absolute magnitude was comparable with the brightness of the Full Moon, was also observed by numerous random observers from the public in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Belgium and France. Numerical integration of the heliocentric orbit of the body and its clones was performed to find the potential parent body of the fireball and also the potential parent body of the meteor shower #749 NMV. However, no potential parent body of the fireball 20160317_031654 was found in the comets (periodic, non-periodic and lost) and asteroids database.
