Notes. The FFP travels on a parabolic orbit with an inclination of iFFP relative to the orbital plane of Jupiter, and its initial conditions are given by Eqs. (19) and (20). The parameter indicates the vertical displacement of the FFP’s perihelion from Jupiter’s orbital plane (z = 0), and it increases with iFFP. At each iFFP, the FFP’s orbit is allowed to be elevated along the positive-z axis by a magnitude of . This way, the perihelion of the inclined FFP could be closer to Jupiter.
