Scientific paper

Two meteor events which were sighted in the Gujarat skies of India, were accompained by the visibility of sporadic E ionization on the ionograms recorded at Ahmedabad. The first event was the Dhajala fireball which flashed into the geoatmosphere at about 20.40 h IST on 28 Jan 1976; the closest distance of the ground projection of meteor trail from Ahmedabad was 50 km. The other event was a possible meteor group sighted over Ahmedabad on 28 May 1978, at about 21.10 h IST. This work describes the nature of the sporadic E ionization observed on Ahmedabad ionograms during the two events. Features of the Es echo during the Dhajala event which indicate that it could be of meteoric origin are discussed. Meteor theory is used to relate the observed ionization with the physical dimensions of the Dhajala meteorite as obtained by other workers.
