Numerical Investigations into the Dynamics of Several Groups of Small Solar System Bodies

This thesis presents research in the area of Solar System dynamics, specifically the long-term orbital evolution of small Solar System bodies. The stable lifetimes of objects in the inner Edgeworth-Kuiper Belt (EKB) were investigated. From a plausible initial model distribution, the number of object...
