Zusammenfassung |
This paper describes a double-station camera set-up in the Canary Islands,
called CILBO (Canary Island Long-Baseline Observatory). Image-intensified
video cameras – one camera on Tenerife and one on La Palma – monitor the same
volume of the atmosphere. They are located in automated roll-off roofs. From
the obtained data, the meteoroid trajectory can be computed. A second camera
on Tenerife is equipped with an objective grating. For bright meteors
(typically 0 mag or brighter), a spectrum is recorded which allows
constraining the chemical composition of the meteor. The system is completely
automated and sends the obtained data after every observation night to a
central FTP server. It has been in operation for about 2 yr and the
first scientific results have been produced. |
