Abstract
  • We have constructed an artificial meteor database resembling in all details the real sample collected by the observers of the Comets and Meteors Workshop in the years 1996-1999. The artificial database includes the sporadic meteors and also events from the following showers: Perseids, Aquarid complex, α-Capricornids, July Pegasids and Sagittarids. This database was searched for the presence of the radiants of two weak showers: α-Cygnids and Delphinids. The lack of these radiants in the artificial database and their existence in the real observations suggests that α-Cygnids and Delphinids are real showers and their radiants could not be formed as an effect of intersections of back prolongated paths of meteors belonging to other showers.
