>>P.S.: radiant size, some radiant have 10° x 15° then we  must remind
this when we choise the field.<<
 
I don't know which shower, if any, that actually has a radiant diameter of  
10X15 degrees. Most showers have radiants less than 2 degrees. Some are listed  
below:
 
Quadrantids - 1.13 deg
Lyrids - 0.25 deg
S. delta Aquarids - 1.41 deg
Perseids - 1.26 deg
Orionids - 0.84 deg
S. Taurids - 2.20 deg
N. Taurids - 1.94 deg
Leonids - 0.32 deg
Geminids - 0.49 deg
