Re: (meteorobs) Radiant Diameter vs Radiant Activity



In a message dated 99-07-15 12:54:23 EDT, you write:

wayne<< However, it would seem to me that a wide stream would have 
 some effect on radiant size since the particles must be on different orbits 
 (hence not perfectly parallel) in order for the stream to be wider.<<

It would seem that, but for long lasting showers like the perseids, the 
radiant diameters are quite small.
