A systematic study of the stability of symmetric periodic orbits in the planar, circular, restricted three-body problem (Q1871117): Difference between revisions

The authors investigate the title problem where the mass of one body is so small that it does not influence the motion of other two bodies called primaries. The three bodies are named as S, J, A identified with the Sun, Jupiter and an asteroid. First, the authors present a dynamic model and methods for study of its stability of interior and exterior periodic orbits is studied depending on the exxentricity of these orbits. The results are applied to the study of exosolar planetary systems, where the primary mass cannot be determined with accurately, due to the unknown inclination of the orbit plane.
