Some Consequences of Planetary Migration on the Primordial
Asteroids  R.S. Gomes (Observatório Nacional - Brazil)  Just
after the dissipation of the Solar Nebula, a global outer Solar
System planetary migration may have taken place (Fernandez & Ip,
1996, Planet. Space Sci, 44, 431). This phenomenon may have
determined important consequences on the dynamics of the
primordial Solar System, including the placement of Pluto and
possibly the Edgworth-Kuiper belt objects in their present
orbital configurations (Malhotra 1995, Astron. J., 110, 420) and
the depletion of asteroids from the outer main belt (Liou &
Malhotra 1997, Science, 275, 375). Here, I investigate the
consequences of migration on the primordial asteroids of the
inner main belt as well as the primordial Trojan asteroids and
Trojan-type asteroids for the three outermost major planets.
The main result of Jupiter and Saturn migration on the
primordial inner belt (2.1 to 3.2 AU) asteroids is determined by
the sweeping of the secular resonance tex2html_
