  Information - SB2 Meteoroids Entry into Atmospheres

Event Information
Earlier the preatmospheric masses of meteoric bodies were defined under the so-called photometric formula by integration of luminosity along a visible site of the trajectory. On the other hand, the mass of a meteoric body characterizes height and intensity braking of a meteor in the atmosphere. In a number of works the essential divergence of values of the masses received by these two ways was marked. It was right for fireballs from the European network, fireballs from the Prairie network in USA, and fireballs from the Canadian network. Last years, there are some works, where this problem is formally treated. It is necessary to discuss the problem from different points of view.
