Migration of Asteroidal Dust
نویسنده
چکیده
Using the Bulirsh–Stoer method of integration, we investigated the migration of dust particles under the gravitational influence of all planets, radiation pressure, Poynting–Robertson drag and solar wind drag for equal to 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, 0.25, and 0.4. For silicate particles such values of correspond to diameters equal to about 40, 9, 4, 2, and 1 microns, respectively [1]. The relative error per integration step was taken to be less than !

Migration of interplanetary dust.
We numerically investigate the migration of dust particles with initial orbits close to those of the numbered asteroids, observed trans-Neptunian objects, and comet Encke. The fraction of silicate asteroidal particles that collided with the Earth during their lifetime varied from 11% for 100 micron particles to 0.008% for 1 micron particles. Almost all asteroidal particles with diameter d >/= 4...
متن کاملMigration of Small Bodies and Dust to Near-Earth Space
The orbital evolution of Jupiter-family comets (JFCs), resonant asteroids, and asteroidal, trans-Neptunian, and cometary dust particles under the gravitational influence of planets was integrated. For dust particles we also considered radiation pressure, Poynting-Robertson drag, and solar wind drag. The probability of a collision of one former JFC with a terrestrial planet can be greater than a...
متن کاملMigration of small bodies and dust to the terrestrial planets
We integrated the orbital evolution of 30,000 Jupiter-family comets, 1300 resonant asteroids, and 7000 asteroidal, trans-Neptunian, and cometary dust particles. For initial orbital elements of bodies close to those of Comets 2P, 10P, 44P, and 113P, a few objects got Earthcrossing orbits with semi-major axes a<2 AU and moved in such orbits for more than 1 Myr (up to tens or even hundreds of Myrs...
متن کاملAsteroidal number for some product graphs
The notion of Asteroidal triples was introduced by Lekkerkerker and Boland [6]. D.G.Corneil and others [2], Ekkehard Kohler [3] further investigated asteroidal triples. Walter generalized the concept of asteroidal triples to asteroidal sets [8]. Further study was carried out by Haiko Muller [4]. In this paper we find asteroidal numbers for Direct product of cycles, Direct product of path and cy...
متن کاملProduction of Cosmic Dust by Hydrous and Anhydrous Asteroids: Implications for the Production of Interplanetary Dust Particles and Micrometeorites. G
Introduction: In our Solar System the asteroid belt is compositionally zoned, with the asteroids similar in reflection spectrum to the carbonaceopus meteorites dominating the outer-half of the main belt. In the outer-half of the main belt about one-half of the carbonaceous asteroids are hydrous, based on their infrared spectra [1]. The asteroids in the inner-half of the main belt are predominan...
