The Spectrum and Orbit of a Fireball Producing Mesospheric Irregularity and Implications for Meteor Mass Deposition

The physical properties of meteoroids producing meteor plasma non-field-aligned irregularities (NFAI) in the Earth’s atmosphere are poorly known. Here we report a complete picture of a fireball and mesospheric NFAI that it produced for the first time. Simultaneous radar and optical observations were...
