Scientific paper

The dynamic plausibility of various ideas on the origin of the Trojans is briefly discussed. We take the point of view that the present, tightly bound population has secularly evolved through some mechanism from less to more tightly bound orbit configurations. The mechanisms considered are changes in the Jovian mass or semimajor axis during planetary formation, collisional interactions with external, asteroidal material, and cometary outgassing.
