Verification of the measured brightness of the meteors based on software packages UFO Analyzer and Meteors Magnitude

Determination of photometric characteristics of celestial objects is a rather difficult task, indicated by Hipparchus. The brightness of meteors is estimated in proportion to the brightness of the stars which are recorded by TV equipment on frames with meteor tracks followed by the summation of these frames (integral brightness). In the process of obtaining photometric characteristics by different methods the researchers obtained results that are very different from each other. The paper presents the results and analysis of photometric processing of a group of Perseid stream meteors obtained by basic methods and processed by two different programs — UFO Analyzer and Meteors Magnitude.
