Abstract: 

Dynamics and Physics of Bodies of the Solar System Russian We discuss our results of numerical integration of the equations of motion for 274 short-period comets on a time interval of 6000 years. Among them, 54 comets had no encounter with planets, 13 comets passed through the incidence of Saturn and one comet passed through the incidence of Uranus. For these 68 comets the change of orbital elements for 6000 years does not exceed ±3 %. The other 206 comets had encounters with Jupiter. On the basis of the investigation of 14 comets, Everhart’s conclusion on the entrapment of the long-period comets with q = 4—6 AU and і Full text (PDF)
