Research Abstract |
Asteroids have been playing a central role in the solar system evolution. Particularly, the near-Earth asteroids(NEAs) that approach the Earth and under active surveillance are the key objects in the collisional history of the solar system. Our study over the past three years indicates that the NEAs could fly into Earth's orbital region from a variety of places in the solar system through complicated dynamical processes, containing many ingredients from rocky asteroids to icy comets. Further accumulation of observational data as well as space mission results are necessary to get clearer pictures of the history of the solar system collisions related to NEAs.
