G. Cevolani et al., RADIO GEMINID METEOR-SHOWER OF 1994, Nuovo cimento della Societa italiana di fisica. C, Geophysics and space physics, 19(3), 1996, pp. 451-454
The geminid meteor shower observed by a radio forward-scatter system o
n the baseline Bologna-Lecce (Italy) in 1994 is discussed. The 1994 Ge
minid shower exhibited a distinct maximum for overdense echoes of dura
tion > 1 s, with the peak rate on December 13, 21-22 UT at solar longi
tude 261.0 degrees (equinox 1950.0). The maxima of echoes of longer du
ration (> 8 s and > 32 s) are shifted to solar longitude 261.3 degrees
.
