Scientific paper

It is hypothesized that the frequency of collisions between bodies populating the asteroid zone in the past was sufficiently high for a small part of these bodies to have been captured in circum-Jovian and Trojan orbits. Conditions under which remote irregular satellites of Jupiter might have formed as a result of inelastic collisions of bodies in the asteroid zone are also examined.
