- Description:
- Meteor stream membership criteria us ed in evaluating potential associations between individual meteor orbits and the mean orbit of a stream are discussed on the basis of precise photographic orbits of some meteor streams (the Taurids, Geminids and Perseids). Serious shortcomings of the D-criterion are disclosed and suggestions on a more relevant use of the criteria for estimating stream memberships are presented, with attention paid to the distributions of the orbital elements of the streams.
