Shower meteor colors.
Abstract
An analysis of visual colors for the δ-Aquarid, Perseid, Taurid and Geminid meteor showers as recorded by the JAS Meteor Section observers in recent years is presented and discussed. A general confirmation of the trends shown by sporadic meteors is found, though Geminid meteors appear somewhat richer in their variety of colored meteors than other types.
