Abstract: Low-cost tours in the Jupiter system with use of gravitational maneuvers near its larger bodies are considered. Limited dynamic opportunities of their use require multiple passes near them. Relevance of regular creation of optimum scenarios — sequences of passing of celestial bodies and solution of conditions of their execution is obvious. This work is devoted to the description of conditions for creation of such chains. Examples of its use for study of concrete options of mission “Laplace-P” are given.

Keywords: gravity assist, Jovian system, Tisserand graph, radiation dose.
