Geminid 10 fragmentation model is compared to the observed radiometric curve (dark-blue pluses) and a composite photometric light curve from various instruments (sky-blue disks). The total model brightness is shown as a solid red line, blue curves show the brightness of regular fragments, green curves signify eroding fragments, and violet lines indicate dust particles released from these fragments. Vertical dashed lines show fragmentation times, and numbers indicate the height above the ground in kilometers of the fragmentations.
