Spatio-temporal variations of density of the particles generating the optical emission of meteor plasma

The data of absolute spectrophotometry of meteors permit to determine number densities of particles of different elements.It is possible to solve mathematically the problem on space-time structure of the meteor with the model of a spherically symmetrical flare.The space distribution of radiating matter can be estimated by the integral equation of Abel type.Variation of density of particles in time can be found from the differential equations of kinetics.
