Scientific paper

The role resonances play in the orbital evolutions of asteroids, meteor streams, and comets is examined. Crossing of separatrixlike zones is argued to be crucial for the formation of arcs and for the dissolution of streams. The orbital inclination of a meteor stream appears to be a critical parameter for arc formation. Numerical results obtained in any other context show that the competition between the Poynting-Robertson drag and the gravitational interaction of grains near the 2/1 resonance might be very important over the long term for the structure of meteor streams.
