Scientific paper

The calculation results of Sikhote-Alinian meteorite interaction with the Earth atmosphere are presented. There are shown that the process of meteorite fragmentation is divided in space and time into four consecutive steps. It is found that after termination of fragmentation the 'pumping' of the largest part of the meteorite energy into a shock wave tool place due to intensive deceleration of the meteorite fragments swarm. At certain height the intensity of 'pumping' of energy reaches the peak that can cause the effect of the meteorite explosion. The calculation results are in a good agreement with the actual data.
