The Poynting-Robertson Effect is a process by which dust particles in orbit around a star gradually lose angular momentum and spiral inward due to the combined effects of radiation pressure and relativistic effects of the star's light. This phenomenon is significant in the context of the solar system, where it contributes to the gradual inward drift of micrometeoroids towards the Sun, affecting the distribution of dust in space.
