Description
Summary:This work focuses on the analysis of some of the brightest bolides recorded along February 2021 by the meteorobserving stations operating in the framework of the Southwestern Europe Meteor Network (SWEMN). Some of them were produced by meteoroids belonging to recently discovered and poorly-known streams. The absolute magnitude of these fireballs, which were observed over the Iberian Peninsula, ranged between ±7 and ±10. The emission spectra produced by some of these events are also presented and discussed.
