Dependence of the Height of Disappearance for Small Meteoric Bodies on Their Parameters / Popelenskaya N.V. // Vestnik Moskovskogo Universiteta. Seriya 1. Matematika. Mekhanika. 2010. ? 4. P. 65-68 [Moscow Univ. Mech. Bulletin. Vol. 65, No 4, 2010. P. 90-93].

A new method for determining the parameters of small meteoric bodies by the height of disappearance on entering the Earth's atmosphere is proposed. The heat transfer processes in front of a body are taken into account. Some numerical results for a number of small meteoric bodies observed by the Canadian camera network are discussed.

Key words: meteoric body, meteoroid, extra-atmospheric mass, height of disappearance, chondrite, stone.
