Scientific paper

Results are reported for a study of the structure of Leonid radiants performed by groups of experienced observers at two sites in the USSR on November 16-18, 1972. The positions of the primary and secondary shower radiants are determined, and hourly rates are derived along with indices of relative activity. It is concluded that the Leonids were very abundant on November 16-17, 1972, with a rate of about 100 meteors per hour for those brighter than 3 stellar magnitudes, and that the relative activity amounted to 88%.
