Abstract: | A report about observations of collision of the comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 with Jupiter is presented. The observations were made both in optical and radio wavelengths. Some consequences of impacts of individual fragments of the comet were detected visually in the 20-cm refractor. 21 days prolonged series of records on a video tape was taken in the focus of the 60-cm reflector, too. 13 serious events from July 16, 1994 to July 23, 1994 on 42.7 MHz radio wavelengths were registered. Its coherence with the pair Shoemaker-Levy 9 and Jupiter in the interaction is the subject of further investigation. More comprehensive results will be published after collecting information about similar observations on radio waves all over the world. |
