Abstract

We study the long-term evolution of the orbits of meteoric particles subjected to planetary perturbations and to Poynting-Robertson drag. Solar wind erosion of the particle is considered. We compute the long-period elliptic elements of the meteoric orbit when it intersects the orbit of the Earth. We compare experimental results with those of the dynamical study.
