(I think "meteor shower counts" is preferred over "meteor(oid) stream counts", since a meteoroid stream doesn't necessarily produce a meteor shower. "meteor counts" would also be appropriate.) |

Here are the facets I've proposed for the "small bodies" discipline list, with definitions:
Facet1 Value | Meaning | ||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
astrometry | Astrometric observations and results | ||||||||
dust studies | Dust measurements related to a primary body or phenomenon | ||||||||
dynamic properties | Orbital parameters, proper elements, etc. | ||||||||
historic references | Discovery circumstances, reference collections | ||||||||
lightcurves | Light intensity variation with time
| ||||||||
meteoritics | Meteor shower counts, meteorite studies | ||||||||
physical properties | Mass, density, albedo, etc. | ||||||||
production rates | Quantification of mass loss from, e.g., the nucleus of a comet: molecule production rates, Afρ, etc. | ||||||||
shape models | Shape models, terrain models, elevation models, etc. | ||||||||
taxonomy | Physical and dynamical taxonomies of small bodies |
