Scientific paper

The parent bodies of a number of major meteoroid streams are not in doubt and the orbits of these parents are also well determined. For these major streams individual orbits for a significant number of member meteoroids have also been determined. There is a significant spread in the determined values of the semi-major axis of individual meteoroids in a particular stream and this paper assumes that this spread is caused primarily by a variation in the ejection process and draws conclusions regarding the value of the ejection velocities from this.
