Micrometeorites are submillimeter extraterrestrial particles that represent the major source of interplanetary material accreted by the Earth each year. The analysis of micrometeorites allows to study the diversity of small bodies of the solar system (asteroids and comets). This thesis is about the study of micrometeorites from the Concordia collection, developed over the last 20 years thanks to a program carried out at the Dome C station (Antarctica). The first part of the work presented concerns a quantitative study of the flow of interplanetary matter arriving on Earth. The study based on more than 2000 micrometeorites from the Concordia collection shows that the flux of micrometeorites is ~10 μg/m²/year, which corresponds to a global an...
