| Abstract: | A general velocity-height relation for both antimatter and ordinary matter meteor is derived. This relation can be expressed as % MathType!MTEF!2!1!+-% feaafiart1ev1aaatCvAUfeBSjuyZL2yd9gzLbvyNv2CaerbuLwBLn% hiov2DGi1BTfMBaeXatLxBI9gBaerbd9wDYLwzYbItLDharqqtubsr% 4rNCHbGeaGqiVu0Je9sqqrpepC0xbbL8F4rqqrFfpeea0xe9Lq-Jc9% vqaqpepm0xbba9pwe9Q8fs0-yqaqpepae9pg0FirpepeKkFr0xfr-x% fr-xb9adbaqaaeGaciGaaiaabeqaamaabaabaaGcbaWaaSaaaeaacq% aHfpqDdaWgaaWcbaGaamOEaaqabaaakeaacqaHfpqDdaWgaaWcbaGa% eyOhIukabeaaaaGccqGH9aqpcaqGLbGaaeiEaiaabchacaqGGaWaam% WaaeaacqGHsisldaWcaaqaaiaadkeaaeaacaWGHbaaaiaabwgacaqG% 4bGaaeiCaiaabIcacaqGTaGaamyyaiaadQhacaGGPaaacaGLBbGaay% zxaaGaeyOeI0YaaSaaaeaacaWGdbaabaGaamOqaiabew8a1naaBaaa% leaacqGHEisPaeqaaaaakmaacmaabaGaaGymaiabgkHiTiaabwgaca% qG4bGaaeiCamaadmaabaGaeyOeI0YaaSaaaeaacaWGcbaabaGaamyy% aaaacaqGLbGaaeiEaiaabchacaqGOaGaaeylaiaadggacaWG6bGaai% ykaaGaay5waiaaw2faaaGaay5Eaiaaw2haaiaacYcaaaa!64FD!\\frac{{\upsilon _z }}{{\upsilon _\infty }} = {\text{exp }}\left { - \frac{B}{a}{\text{exp( - }}az)} \right] - \frac{C}{{B\upsilon _\infty }}\left\{ {1 - {\text{exp}}\left { - \frac{B}{a}{\text{exp( - }}az)} \right]} \right\},\]where

is the velocity of the meteoroid at height z,  its velocity before entrance into the Earth's atmosphere,  is the scale-height, and C parameter proportional to the atom-antiatom annihilation cross- section, which is experimentally unknown. The parameter B (B = DA 0/m) is the well known parameter for koinomatter (ordinary matter) meteors, D is the drag factor, 0 is the air density at sea level, A is the cross sectional area of the meteoroid and m its mass.When the annihilation cross-section is zero — in the case of ordinary meteors — the parameter C is also zero and the above derived equation becomes % MathType!MTEF!2!1!+-% feaafiart1ev1aaatCvAUfeBSjuyZL2yd9gzLbvyNv2CaerbuLwBLn% hiov2DGi1BTfMBaeXatLxBI9gBaerbd9wDYLwzYbItLDharqqtubsr% 4rNCHbGeaGqiVu0Je9sqqrpepC0xbbL8F4rqqrFfpeea0xe9Lq-Jc9% vqaqpepm0xbba9pwe9Q8fs0-yqaqpepae9pg0FirpepeKkFr0xfr-x% fr-xb9adbaqaaeGaciGaaiaabeqaamaabaabaaGcbaWaaSaaaeaacq% aHfpqDdaWgaaWcbaGaamOEaaqabaaakeaacqaHfpqDdaWgaaWcbaGa% eyOhIukabeaaaaGccqGH9aqpcaqGLbGaaeiEaiaabchacaqGGaWaam% WaaeaacqGHsisldaWcaaqaaiaadkeaaeaacaWGHbaaaiaabwgacaqG% 4bGaaeiCaiaabIcacaqGTaGaamyyaiaadQhacaGGPaaacaGLBbGaay% zxaaGaaiilaaaa!4CF5!\\frac{{\upsilon _z }}{{\upsilon _\infty }} = {\text{exp }}\left { - \frac{B}{a}{\text{exp( - }}az)} \right],\]which is the well known velocity-height relation for koinomatter meteors.In the case in which the Universe contains antimatter in compact solid structure, the velocity-height relation can be found useful.Work performed mainly at the Nuclear Physics Laboratory of the National University of Athens, Greece. |
