Scientific paper

A method for the determination of the parameter s for meteor mass distribution and meteor shower number density from radar measurements of meteor quantities during shower activities is considered. The data from radar observations of η Aquarids and Orionids in Khar'kov in 1986 are analyzed with this method. For the duration of both showers, the maximum activity of the parameter s is found to be equal to 1.65. The dependencies of the number densities of the meteor showers and of the parameter s on the solar longitude and the time of observation are also derived. The mean number density of meteor bodies with M ≥ 10-3g is equal to 2.9×10-11m-2s-1 for the η Aquarids and 2.5×10-11m-2s-1 for the Orionids.
