论文摘要
流星数据中心(MDC)的淋浴数据库(SD)一直是基于媒体命名规则的运行,这些规则过于复杂且不足以精确15年。随着发现的流星阵雨的数量逐渐增加,将新淋浴提交数据库的程序并命名为它们导致与SD的基本作用不一致的情况 - 科学文献中流名称的歧义。我们的目标是简化流星淋浴命名法规则。我们提出了一组基于两阶段方法的流星淋浴命名规则,类似于小行星中使用的方法。第一个阶段适用于发现后的新淋浴。第二阶段涉及反复观察到的淋浴,其存在不再引起任何疑问。我们提出的新程序在2022年7月的IAU委员会F1的投票中获得了批准。
The Shower Database (SD) of the Meteor Data Center (MDC) had been operating on the basis of stream-naming rules which were too complex and insufficiently precise for 15 years. With a gradual increase in the number of discovered meteor showers, the procedure for submitting new showers to the database and naming them lead to situations that were inconsistent with the fundamental role of the SD - the disambiguation of stream names in the scientific literature. Our aim is to simplify the meteor shower nomenclature rules. We propose a much simpler set of meteor shower nomenclature rules, based on a two-stage approach, similar to those used in the case of asteroids. The first stage applies to a new shower just after its discovery. The second stage concerns the repeatedly observed shower, the existence of which no longer raises any doubts. Our proposed new procedure was approved by a vote of the commission F1 of the IAU in July 2022.
