Scientific paper

The restricted three-body dynamics of the asteroid-planet-Sun system in the heliocentric frame is generalized to include the action of an existing massive planetary satellite. The introduction of a planetary satellite allows the asteroid to change both its angular momentum and its energy with respect to the planet through scattering by the satellite. The asteroid-satellite scattering, therefore, breaks the capture/escape constraint within the framework of three-body interactions and makes permanent capture of asteroids feasible.
