“…As there is a long record of observations for Orionids (Rendtel 2008), the same pattern could be compared and justified. The maximum ZHR in 2007 was about 80 (Arlt et al 2008), whereas in 1993, it was about 35 (Rendtel and Betlem 1993); cf. normal rates of 20-25.…”

“…We calculate that the meteor outburst in 1993 was due to 2:13 resonant meteoroids ejected around Halley's À1333, À985, À910, and À835 returns. The outburst (Miskotte 1993;Rendtel and Betlem 1993) occurred when solar longitude was between 204.7°and 204.9°, a notably different time compared with other known outbursts. Our theoretical calculations match this unusually early peaking on 1993 October 18.…”

“…Past observations (Millman 1936;Lovell 1954;Imoto and Hasegawa 1958;Rendtel and Betlem 1993;Dubietis 2003;Rendtel 2007;Trigo-Rodríguez et al 2007;Arlt et al 2008;Spurny and Shrbeny 2008;Kero et al 2011) of Orionids have shown enhanced meteor activity in some particular years. Previous interesting works (Rendtel 2007;Sato and Watanabe 2007) have highlighted the significance of 1:6 MMR in explaining the outburst in 2006.…”

“…The ejection epochs for 1:6 resonant meteoroids, which caused continuous enhanced activity in 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2010(Trigo-Rodríguez et al 2007Arlt et al 2008;Kero et al 2011;IMO Records) are also given in Table 1. These ejection years correspond to the time when the comet itself was 1:6 resonant.…”

“…It is interesting to note that the zenithal hourly rates (ZHR) of Orionids are nonuniform (Miskotte 1993;Rendtel and Betlem 1993;Rendtel 2007Rendtel , 2008Trigo-Rodríguez et al 2007;Arlt et al 2008;Kero et al 2011; International Meteor Organization Records) with respect to each year. Many previous works have discussed the active role of mean motion resonances (MMR) in the dynamical evolution of various meteoroid streams (e.g., Asher et al 1999;Emel'yanenko 2001;Asher and Emel'yanenko 2002;Ryabova 2003Ryabova , 2006Jenniskens 2006;Vaubaillon et al 2006;Jenniskens et al 2007;Christou et al 2008;Soja et al 2011), and consequent year-to-year variations in shower activity.…”

No firm evidence has existed that the ancient Maya civilization recorded specific occurrences of meteor showers or outbursts in the corpus of Maya hieroglyphic inscriptions. In fact, there has been no evidence of any pre-Hispanic civilization in the Western Hemisphere recording any observations of any meteor showers on any specific dates.The authors numerically integrated meteoroid-sized particles released by Comet Halley as early as 1404 BC to identify years within the Maya Classic Period, AD 250-909, when Eta Aquariid outbursts might have occurred. Outbursts determined by computer model were then compared to specific events in the Maya record to see if any correlation existed between the date of the event and the date of the outburst. The model was validated by successfully explaining several outbursts around the same epoch in the Chinese record. Some outbursts observed by the Maya were due to recent revolutions of Comet Halley, within a few centuries, and some to resonant behavior in older Halley trails, of the order of a thousand years. Examples were found of several different Jovian mean motion resonances as well as the 1:3 Saturnian resonance that have controlled the dynamical evolution of meteoroids in apparently observed outbursts.

Context. Results from previous searches for new meteor showers in the combined Croatian Meteor Network and SonotaCo meteor databases suggested possible parent bodies for several newly identified showers. Aims. We aim to perform an analysis to validate the connection between the identified showers and candidate parent bodies. Methods. Simulated particles were ejected from candidate parent bodies, a dynamical modeling was performed and the results were compared to the real meteor shower observations. Results. From the 13 analysed cases, three were found to be connected with comets, four with asteroids which are possibly dormant comets, four were inconclusive or negative, and two need more observational data before any conclusions can be drawn.
