Scientific paper

The paper discusses the time evolution of a meteoroid's orbit under the action of solar electromagnetic radiation in terms of perihelion and aphelion distances. Perturbation equations for secular changes of orbital elements are written for the most simple case. Initial conditions are formulated for the obtained system of perturbation equations, and a simple example is presented.
