Abstract:The long-term orbital evolution modeling of 95P/Chiron (2060) is discussed with its implication to the physical evolution of this representative of Centaurs group. In this work we have carried out the orbital evolution modeling for 33 objects of Centaurs population, and for 2 distant Jupiter-family comets 39P/Oterma and 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1. The calculations were produced for 1 million years backward and forward from the present time. The Everhart implicit single sequence methods for integrating orbits w… Show more
