Scientific paper

An analysis is made of data on the populations of bodies having the smallest orbits in the solar system of moderate and high eccentricity with aphelia near the earth's orbit. This population, called the Eccentrids, includes three asteroids of the Aten group and 50 meteoroids observed photographically. A deficiency of orbits penetrating into Mercury's orbit is noted. Streams of bodies whose members may be genetically related are identified; one of these streams is located along the orbit of the Aten 2340 Hathor. In addition, it is suggested that the Staroe Pes'ianoe meteorite may be a fragment of the Aten 2100 Ra-Shalom.
