Scientific paper

Irregular satellites observed around giant planets are thought to be object that were initially in the heliocentric orbits and later been captured into their current orbits around their host planets. To clarify the possibility of their origin in the asteroid belt, we calculated the orbit of mass-less particles initially distributed around the outer asteroid belt under the perturbations by Jupiter and Saturn. We found that the asteroids can be the candidates for the irregular satellites, not only of Jupiter but also of Saturn.
