Correction effect to the~radiant dispersion in case of Low Velocity Meteor Showers
Abstract
We usually apply various corrections for determining apparent radiant point to the actual trajectories of shower meteors. In case of low velocity meteor showers, the velocity corrections should be carefully performed together with the error estimate. Here we show that such correction strongly affects the dispersion of radiant points especially in case of low geocentric velocity meteor showers.
