A modest Aurigid outburst in 2021
Abstract
In this article the results are presented, based on visual observations of the Aurigids in 2021. The visually observed maximum was at λʘ = 158.381° (August 31, 2021 at 21h16m UT) while the radio observations gave λʘ = 158.402° (August 31, 2021 at 21h45m UT). Thus, the visual first maximum is close to the time predicted by Sato (August 31, 2021 at 21h16m UT), while the radio peak and the second visual peak are closer to the predicted time by Lyytinen and Vaubaillon (Rendtel et al., 2019).
