Scientific paper

A mechanism is proposed to account for the observed scattering of asteroid orbits between 2 and 3.5 AU within the framework of Safranov's (1972) theory of planetary accretion. The mechanism is based on a particular solution of the restricted three-body problem in a resistive medium, under the assumption that terrestrial planet accretion continued after the sun and Jupiter had reached their present masses. It is shown that the random arrivals of planetesimals ejected from the L4 and L5 equilibrium points of Jupiter will disturb the accretion of a small unique planet in the asteroid region, leading to the formation of the asteroid belt. The mechanism may also be used to explain the belt structure of the satellite systems of Jupiter and Saturn.
