The past and future of 1983 TB and its relationship to the geminid meteor stream
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
It is now well known that object 1983 TB, discovered by IRAS, has an orbit very similar to that of the Geminid meteor stream. Calculations show that this orbit crossed over the orbit of Venus about 500 years ago. We will describe calculations tracing the history of both the object and the stream through this interaction with Venus and the present interaction with the Earth.
