The following quasistationary parameters of the small bodies of the solar system are introduced: P = 0.6/a -(a(1 - e/sup 2/))cos/sup 2/i - 2, Q = 0.4 + (2a - 1) (1 - e/sup 2/)cos/sup 2/i - e/sup 2/ (0.4 - sin/sup 2/ omega x sin/sup 2/i). They are investigated on the basis of data of photographic and radar observations of meteors, comets, and asteroids of the Apollo - Amur group. The quasistationary parameters P and Q can be applied to judge the genetic relationship between the bodies under investigation and to determine the probabilities of their encounter with the planets and the influx of meteoric material onto the planets of the solar system.
