Scientific paper

It is shown that close encounters between Jupiter and minor bodies are generally more efficient if the initial orbit of the small body is nearly tangent to that of the planet. Starting from the analysis of the results of previous numerical simulations, some indications on the mobility of the small bodies in the semiaxis-eccentricity diagram are given.
