Migration 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 analogous total probability for thousands other JFCs. If those former JFCs that got near-Earth object (NEO) orbits for millions of years didn't disintegrate during this time, there could be many extinct comets among NEOs. The maximum probability of a collision of an asteroidal or cometary dust particle with the Earth during its lifetime was for diameter $d$$\sim$100 microns. At $d$$<$10 micron, the collision probability of a trans-Neptunian particle with the Earth during a lifetime of the particle was less than that for an asteroidal particle by only a factor of several.
