Numerical exploration of resonant dynamics in the system of Saturnian major satellites
(Pergamon-Elsevier B.V. Ltd, 2010-12-01)
We numerically investigate the long-term dynamics of the Saturnian system by analyzing the Fourier spectra of ensembles of orbits taken around the current orbits of Mimas, Enceladus, Tethys, Rhea and Hyperion. We construct ...
Instability zones for satellites of asteroids: The example of the (87) Sylvia system
(Academic Press Inc. Elsevier B.V., 2012-07-01)
The stability of the (87) Sylvia system and of the neighborhood of its two satellites is investigated. We use numerical integrations considering the non-sphericity of Sylvia, as well as the mutual perturbation of the ...
Stable satellites around extrasolar giant planets
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2006-12-11)
In this work, we study the stability of hypothetical satellites of extrasolar planets. Through numerical simulations of the restricted elliptic three-body problem we found the borders of the stable regions around the ...
Numerical study of low-cost alternative orbits around the Moon
(Elsevier B.V., 2005-01-01)
In this paper, we have investigated a region of direct stable orbits around the Moon, whose stability is related to the H2 Family of periodic orbits and to the quasi-periodic orbits that oscillate around them. The stability ...
Spin-orbit coupling for tidally evolving super-Earths
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2012-12-01)
We investigate the spin behaviour of close-in rocky planets and the implications for their orbital evolution. Considering that the planet rotation evolves under simultaneous actions of the torque due to the equatorial ...
Time analysis for temporary gravitational capture: Satellites of Uranus
(2001-07-01)
We study the problem of gravitational capture in the framework of the Sun-Uranus-particle system. Part of the space of initial conditions is systematically explored, and the duration of temporary gravitational capture is ...
Possible effects of secular resonances in Phobos and Triton
(Elsevier B.V., 2002-01-01)
Due to the tides, the orbits of Phobos and Triton are contracting. While their semi major axes are decreasing, several possibilities of secular resonances involving node, argument of the pericenter and mean motion of the ...
