GARCIA-MARTINEZ, J. L.  e  ORTEGA-GUTIERREZ, F. Streamlets within meteoroid streams on NEA orbits. Geofís. Intl [online]. 2008, vol.47, n.3, pp.251-255. ISSN 2954-436X.

Five meteoroid streams of apparent asteroidal nature have been identified in the IAU_MDC Database of Photographic Meteors. Three streams contain streamlets, composed of two or more meteoroids sharing nearly the same orbit. The random impact rate on the NEA population by objects 1 m or larger is estimated to be 4900 yr^-1.

Palavras-chave : NEAs; meteoroids; streams; streamlets.
