Abstract
The trajectories and orbits of the detected meteors were used to determine whether those meteors are members of the same shower. An orbital evolution model was applied on a certain number of cloned particles to investigate their possible connection with the meteorite stream. Statistical tests were conducted to determine if such small sample of the orbits is similar by chance or if the stream is real. It was found that from the observational as well as the theoretical point of view it is impossible to prove the existence of faint meteor shower connected with the PÅÃbram and Neuschwanstein meteorite stream.
