(meteorobs) Question about bolide meteor fragmentation(air burst) and acoustic sound event???

[Thomas Dorman]

Hi.All
When a bolide meteor fragments and one sees a bright
flash.Does this flash,fragmentation or air burst of
the meteor produce the sonic boom or acoustic event
people hear.If one graphed the light event from an air
burst and graphed the acoustic events and would the
two graphs look somewhat alike.Since light and sound
both acts as a wave would the two signatures be
comparable?Could they be compared?
