Interaction between large cosmic bodies and atmosphere.
Abstract
The initial stage of movement of a large gaseous body in the Earth's atmosphere is calculated. For the Tunguska meteorite blast, the radiation and the thermal effect on the ground are computed using the multi-group spectrum approximation. Different types of trajectories of cosmic bodies having non-zero lift/drag ratio are found.
