论文摘要
地球偶尔会跨越太阳系中彗星和其他活性物体产生的碎屑流。这些明显的流星阵雨提供了一个机会，可以探索这些尸体，而无需在原地拜访它们。对流星阵雨的观察提供了有关其母体的物理和动力学特性的独特见解，以及近表面灰尘的组成和结构。在本章中，我们讨论了流星科学的发展和当前状况，重点是它作为研究彗星的工具的作用，并回顾了既定的母体 - 流星淋浴联系。
Earth occasionally crosses the debris streams produced by comets and other active bodies in our solar system. These manifest meteor showers that provide an opportunity to explore these bodies without a need to visit them in-situ. Observations of meteor showers provide unique insights into the physical and dynamical properties of their parent bodies, as well as into the compositions and the structure of near-surface dust. In this chapter, we discuss the development and current state of affairs of meteor science, with a focus on its role as a tool to study comets, and review the established parent body -- meteor shower linkages.
