The zodiacal cloud is a thick circumsolar disk of small debris particles produced by asteroid
collisions and comets. Their relative contribution and how particles of different sizes …

Orbital elements are presented for 70 of the 95 meteor showers considered “established” by
the International Astronomical Union. From 2010 October 21 until 2013 March 31, the low …

Using a meteor orbit radar, a total of more than 2.5 million meteoroids with masses∼ 10− 7
kg have had orbits measured in the interval 2002–2006. From these data, a total of 45 …

Finding a common origin for various celestial bodies, especially the relations between
meteoroid streams, comets and asteroids (possibly extinct comets), remains one of the …

Small bodies in the solar system are conventionally classified into asteroids and comets.
However, it is recently found that a small number of objects can exhibit properties of both …

Sporadic meteoroids are the most abundant yet least understood component of the Earth's
meteoroid complex. This paper aims to build a physics-based model of this complex …

Meteoroid behaviour during atmospheric interaction provides clues about the strength and
density of cometary disintegration products, establishing a bridge between different research …

The history of associating meteor showers with asteroidal-looking objects is long, dating to
before the 1983 discovery that 3200 Phaethon moves among the Geminids. Only since the …

Abstract Near‐Earth asteroid (101955) Bennu is an active asteroid experiencing mass loss.
The activity manifests itself in the form of ejection events emitting up to hundreds of …
