Fig. 1

Numerical integration of the nominal orbit of 2004 LG up to 8.9 ky when the heliocentric distance became smaller than solar radius. The upper three panels show the time evolution of the osculating semimajor axis (top), eccentricity (middle) and inclination (bottom). Each of them is affected by resonance phenomena that produce large-scale oscillations: the semimajor axis oscillates due to effects of the J4/1 mean motion resonance with Jupiter, eccentricity and inclination show correlated oscillations due to the Kozai resonance (with smaller effects of the J4/1 resonance too). The bottom-most panel shows the resonance angle φJ41 = 4λJ − λ − 3ϖ.
