Based on the theory of p-supersoluble and supersoluble groups, a prime-number parametrized family of canonical characteristic subgroups Γp(G) and their intersection Γ(G) is introduced in every finite group G and some of its properties are studied. Special interest is dedicated to an elementwise description of the largest p-nilpotent normal subgroup of Γp(G) and of the Fitting subgroup of Γ(G).
