Scientific paper

From early visual reports of the 1997 Leonid shower, a preliminary activity profile is constructed based on 2379 Leonids reported by 78 observers. A broad plateau in activity occurred between lambda=235.0 degrees (eq. 2000) and lambda=235.8 degrees, with a most probable maximum at 235.16+-0.04 degrees and an accompanying ZHR of approximately 150, though the peak values are based on only 5 individual ZHR measurements. Strong lunar interference precludes any definitive statement concerning the visual activity of the shower in 1997.
