Abstract

We present in this work the analysis of some of the bright fireballs spotted in the framework of the Southwestern Europe Meteor Network (SWEMN) between October and November 2022. They have been observed from the Iberian Peninsula and had a maximum brightness ranging from mag. –7 to mag. –15. Most meteors included in this report were linked to the sporadic background and also to the Southern Taurids.Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation (project PID2019-105797GB-I00).
