Scientific paper

We study the past and future motion of comet P/Maury (1985 VI) by means of orbital integration, performed over several thousand years in the framework of the elliptic three-dimensional restricted three-body model, besides a more realistic restricted five-body model. We study both the purely gravitational problem and trajectories where we take into account the effects of simulated nongravitational forces. Orbit of P/Maury shows a relatively long-lasting stability near the 4/3 resonance with Jupiter; moreover, before belonging to the Jupiter family, P/Maury came, through close encounters with Jupiter, from a region where the comet was under the influence of Saturn.
