The PANSY radar is the first Mesosphere–Stratosphere–Troposphere/Incoherent Scatter
(MST/IS) radar in the Antarctic region. It is a large VHF monostatic pulse Doppler radar …

During the flight of a meteoroid through the neutral atmosphere, the high kinetic energy is
sufficient to ionize the meteoric constituents. Radar echoes coming from plasma …

We show that dark-matter candidates with large masses and large nuclear interaction cross
sections are detectable with terrestrial radar systems. We develop our results in close …

The aim of this paper is to give an overview of the monthly meteor head echo observations
(528.8 h) conducted between 2009 June and 2010 December using the Shigaraki Middle …

We present the first quasi continuous meteor head echo measurements obtained during a
period of over two years using the Middle Atmosphere ALOMAR Radar System (MAARSY) …

We describe the use of radar beam-park experiments to characterize the space debris
resulting from a recent fragmentation event, the deliberate demolition of the defunct Kosmos …

The initial results of a two year simultaneous optical-radar meteor campaign are described.
Analysis of 105 double-station optical meteors having plane of sky intersection angles …

We present an improved methodology to obtain absolute position and velocity of meteor
head echoes, which can yield orbital information, generally limited to the use of High-Power …

Radar and optical simultaneous observations of meteors are important to understand the
size distribution of the interplanetary dust. However, faint meteors detected by high power …

Abstract On 2011 October 8, the Earth passed through a stream of dust ejected by the comet
21P/Giacobini–Zinner during its perihelion passage of the year 1900, causing an outburst of …
