the first discovered on an unstable planet-crossing orbit that lies entirely in the outer Solar System. Since that time, We present numerical orbital integrations of thousands of massless particles as they evolve from Neptune-encountering a total of six objects on similar giant plant-crossing orbit
We study the Jupiter family comet (JFC) population assumed to come from the Scattered Disk and transferred to the Jupiter's zone through gravitational interactions with the Jovian planets. We shall define as JFCs those with orbital periods P < 20 yr and Tisserand parameters in the range 2 < T K 3:1,
