A stable manifold theorem for degenerate fixed points with applications to celestial mechanics

From MaRDI portal





An orbit of the classical three-body problem is called parabolic if two of the particles remain bounded for all positive time while the third approaches infinity with zero velocity. It is proved for three special cases (restricted three-body problem, Sitnikov problem, collinear three-body problem), that the set of parabolic orbits forms a real analytic submanifold of the phase space.
