Abstract: | We have carried out multi-station TV observations since 1994 in order to determine the orbit of the Arietid daytime meteor
stream. In 1999, one possible Arietid meteor was recorded by our simultaneous observations and its orbit was determined. In
2003, two Arietid meteors were observed from two stations of our observing site, those orbits were determined precisely, the
orbital elements were in good agreement with each other. This is the first time that determination of the precise orbit of
the Arietids has been made from optical observations. The orbit of these Arietid meteors, and comparison with the orbit obtained
from radar observations are discussed. |
