Consequences of collisions of natural cosmic bodies with the Earth’s atmosphere and surface
TL;DR: In this paper, the possible consequences of collisions of natural cosmic bodies with the Earth's atmosphere and surface are described, and the methodological basis of classification of consequences is the solution of meteor physics equations characterizing the trajectory of a body in the atmosphere, namely the dependence of the body's velocity and mass on the flight altitude.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, a detailed analysis of the Kosice meteorite fall is conducted to derive a reliable law describing the mass distribution among the recovered fragments, and the authors conclude that two to three larger fragments of 500 to 1000 kg each should exist, but were either not recovered or not reported by illegal meteorite hunters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Drag Coefficients for Bodies of Meteorite-Like Shapes
TL;DR: In this article, the drag coefficients and the patterns of supersonic flows around rectangular parallelepipeds (bodies with rectangular and square faces-bricks and tiles, respectively) were found from numerical experiments.

A comprehensive study of distribution laws for the fragments of Ko\v{s}ice meteorite
Maria Gritsevich,Vladimir Vinnikov,Tomas Kohout,Juraj Tóth,Jouni Peltoniemi,L. I. Turchak,Jenni Virtanen +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed analysis of the Ko\v{s}ice meteorite fall (February 28, 2010) was conducted to derive a reliable law describing the mass distribution among the recovered fragments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Meteoroids Interaction With The Earth Atmosphere
L. I. Turchak,Maria Gritsevich +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated meteoroid mass and its other prop- erties based on the observed atmospheric trajectory and formulated a problem by introducing key dimensionless parameters in the model, responsible for the drag, mass loss and rota- tion of meteoroid.
