Large planetesimals from the outer solar system when they are on a trajectory that leads them to the inner solar system. This keeps large enough asteroids and comets from coming into the inner solar system. This was made very aparent during the comet that crashed into Jupiter in the 90's.

Does Jupiter have Auroras?
Yes Jupiter does have aurorae. This is because Jupiter has a magnetic field that can attract the electrically charged particles emitted from the Sun, as well as the charged particles given off by Jupiter's volcanic moon, Io.

This is the same mechanism that causes auroras on Earth
