The Connection Between the April Chi Librids Meteor Shower and Near-Earth Asteroids
The paper examines the April chi Librids meteor shower, which is a minor meteor shower with an unidentified parent body. According to the IAU Meteor Data Center, the April chi Librids meteor shower is registered under number 140. A search for its genetic connections with near-Earth asteroid groups was conducted using an author-modified synthetic method. As a result of establishing genetic links between the April chi Librids meteor shower and near-Earth asteroids of the Apollo group, the following parent bodies were identified: 2013 YC, 2015 DU180, 2011 BT59, and 2013 WM. For the identified parent bodies, an analysis of the discovered genetic relationships was conducted using various methods.
