Scientific paper

A more complete expression for the radiation force on a small particle in the solar system is given which includes the effect of asymmetry of the thermal reradiation and also of inelastic scattering such as fluorescence. Both the Poynting-Robertson drag and the Yarkovsky effect are affected by such asymmetries and are incorporated into the formalism. For non-spherical particles the direction of the radiation force will no longer coincide with the solar irradiation.
