Resonance Relation

The paper presents a summary of the results obtained by C. J. Cohen and E. C. Hubbard, who established by numerical integration that a resonance relation exists between the orbits of Neptune and Pluto. The problem may be explored further by approximating the motion of Pluto by that of a particle with negligible mass in the three-dimensional (circular) restricted problem. The mass of Pluto and the eccentricity of Neptune's orbit are ignored in this approximation. Significant features of the problem appear to be the presence of two critical arguments and the possibility that the orbit may be related to a periodic orbit of the third kind.

Elastic Anomalies

The anomalies of the second-, third-, and fourth-order elastic constants are considered for the phase transition of Hg2X2 type of compounds. Expressions are obtained for the equilibrium values of the order parameters in the ferroelastic phase from the stability conditions. The fluctuation in the order parameter is evaluated from the Landau–Khalatnikov equation. An expression is derived for the shift in the zero-point energy in the low-temperature ferroelastic phase and the specific heat anomaly. It is shown that these are proportional to (T − T)2 and (T − Tc), respectively. All the anomalies of the second-order elastic (SOE) constants are obtained from a single general formula, and relations among them are established. The temperature variation of the SOE constants in the limit [Formula: see text] is discussed. Similarly, expressions are derived for the anomalies of the third- and fourth-order elastic constants. In the limit [Formula: see text] it is shown that these constants diverge as [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], respectively.

The Stability

The location and the stability of the libration points in the restricted problem have been studied when there are perturbations in the potentials between the bodies. It is seen that if the perturbing functions involving the parameters α,α1,α2 satisfy certain conditions, there are five libration points, two triangular and three collinear. It is further observed that the collinear points are unstable and for the triangular points, the range of stability increases or decreases depending upon whether the perturbation point (α,α1,α2) lies on one or the other side of the plane Aα + Bα1 + Cα2 = 0, and it remains the same if the point lies on the plane, where A,B,C depend on the perturbations. The theory is verified in the following four cases: (1) there are no perturbations in the potentials (classical problem), (2) only the bigger primary is an oblate spheroid, (3) both the primaries are oblate spheroids, and (4) the primaries are spherical in shape and the bigger is a source of radiation.
