根据CBET 944报道,日本国立天文台的科学家Sato和Watanabe公布了他们关于哈雷彗星尘埃尾的计算结果。这个成果基于2006年猎户座流星雨的爆发,计算机模拟显示哈雷彗星在公元前836年的喷发物将于2007年5月6.6日(北京时间6日22时左右)与地球相遇,最小距离为0.0001AU(约1.5万公里)。由于这个喷发物年龄太大,活动持续时间可能较长。详细数据参见:
Eta Aquarids 2007
by Mikiya Sato
I calculated dust trails of Eta-Aquarids in 2007.
The Earth will encounter the dust trail ejected from 1P/Halley in -835 (BC 836).
Especially, two parts of a dust trail will approach on May 6, the peak of meteor shower is expected to observed.
Main data is summarized to the following table and figure.

Fig. 1 Distributions of the dust trails of Eta Aquarids in 2007
* Colored ovals : fM > 0.01
Expected peak time is between 13:30 and 15:00 on May 6.
However, the trails were very old, it is guessed that the peak is not sharp.
