Ifviscosity is taken into account, Keplerian motion of a large number of grains in a gravitational field has a tendency to lead to the formation ofjet streams. In order to treat problems of this kind it is advantageous to present celestial mechanics by a simple perturbation approach which is developed in Sections 2 7. Inelastic collisions between a number of grains will tend to make their orbits similar. This leads to the formation of jet streams. Their properties are treated in Sections 8 10. Finally, in Section 11, we discuss the possible application of the jet stream theory to meteor streams, to asteroidal jet streams, and to the cosmogonic accretion process.
