Scientific paper

The dynamics of the satellite-planet system under the influence of the Sun is analyzed in the rotating frame of the planet. This system is described by the well-established, restricted three-body potential. In order to break the capture/escape scenario in temporary satellites, a scattering mechanism by an existing planetary satellite is suggested to account for permanent capture of guest bodies.
