We present a method for the study of the Krein signature in perturbed Hamiltonian integrable systems. The method is developed up to first order in the small parameter. We apply this method to a particular instance of the two-body problem in which the semi-major axis is not affected by the perturbation.

AbstractA new technique that utilizes surface integrals to find the force, torque and potential energy between two non-spherical, rigid bodies is presented. The method is relatively fast, and allows us to solve the full rigid two-body problem for pairs of spheroids and ellipsoids with 12 degrees of freedom. We demonstrate the method with two dimensionless test scenarios, one where tumbling motion develops, and one where the motion of the bodies resemble spinning tops. We also test the method on the asteroid binary (66391) 1999 KW4, where both components are modelled either as spheroids or ellipsoids. The two different shape models have negligible effects on the eccentricity and semi-major axis, but have a larger impact on the angular velocity along the z-direction. In all cases, energy and total angular momentum is conserved, and the simulation accuracy is kept at the machine accuracy level.

We investigate in the elliptic framework of the restricted three-body problem, the motion around the collinear points of an infinitesimal particle in the vicinity of an oblate primary and a triaxial stellar companion. The locations of the collinear points are affected by the eccentricity of the orbits, oblateness of the primary body and the triaxiality and luminosity of the secondary. A numerical analysis of the effects of the parameters on the positions of collinear points of CEN X-4 and PSR J1903+0327 reveals a general shift away from the smaller primary with increase in eccentricity and triaxiality factors and a shift towards the smaller primary with increase in the semi-major axis and oblateness of the primary on L1. The collinear points remain unstable in spite of the introduction of these parameters.

AbstractIn order to improve the determination of the mixed terms in classical theories, we show how these terms may be derived from a general theory developed with the same variables (of a keplerian nature). We find that the general theory of the first order in the masses already allows us to develop the mixed terms which appear at the second order in the classical theory. We also show that a part of the constant perturbation of the semi-major axis introduced in the classical theory is present in the general theory as very long-period terms; by developing these terms in powers of time, they would be equivalent to the appearance of very small secular terms (in t, t2, …) in the perturbation of the semi-major axes from the second order in the masses. The short period terms of the classical theory are found the same in the general theory, but without the numerical substitution of the values of the variables.

We have investigated the motion of the out-of-plane equilibrium points within the framework of the Elliptic Restricted Three-Body Problem (ER3BP) at J4 of the smaller primary in the field of stellar binary systems: Xi- Bootis and Sirius around their common center of mass in elliptic orbits. The positions and stability of the out-of-plane equilibrium points are greatly affected on the premise of the oblateness at J4 of the smaller primary, semi-major axis and the eccentricity of their orbits. The positions L6, 7 of the infinitesimal body lie in the xz-plane almost directly above and below the center of each oblate primary. Numerically, we have computed the positions and stability of L6, 7 for the aforementioned binary systems and found that their positions are affected by the oblateness of the primaries, the semi-major axis and eccentricity of their orbits. It is observed that, for each set of values, there exist at least one complex root with positive real part and hence in Lyapunov sense, the stability of the out-of-plane equilibrium points are unstable.

We adopt the Dirac–Detweiler–Whiting radiative and regular effective field in curved spacetime. Thereby, we derive straightforwardly the first order perturbative correction to the geodesic of the background in a covariant form, for the extreme mass ratio two-body problem. The correction contains the self-force contribution and a background metric-dependent term.

In the frame work of Saturn–Titan system, the resonant orbits of first-order are analyzed for three different families of periodic orbits, namely, interior resonant orbits, exterior resonant orbits and [Formula: see text]-Family orbits. This analysis is developed by considering Saturn as a spherical and oblate body. The initial position, semi-major axis, eccentricity, orbital period and order of resonant orbits of these families are investigated for different values of Jacobi constant and oblateness parameter.

This study examines the triangular points in the elliptic restricted three-body problem when both primaries are sources of radiation as well as oblate spheroids with oblateness up to zonal harmonic J4. The positions of triangular points and their critical mass ratio are seen to be affected by the eccentricity, semi major axis, radiation and oblateness of both primaries up to zonal harmonic J4. We highlight the effects of the said parameters on the locations of the triangular points of 61 CYGNI and STRUVE 2398. The triangular points of these systems are found to be unstable.

<p>This paper studies effects of the triaxiality and radiation pressure of both the primaries on the stability of the infinitesimal motion about triangular equilibrium points in the elliptical restricted three body problem(ER3BP), assuming that the bigger and the smaller primaries are triaxial and the source of radiation as well. It is observed that the motion around these points is stable under certain condition with respect to the radiation pressure and oblate triaxiality. The critical mass ratio depends on the radiation pressure, triaxiality, semi -major axis and eccentricity of the orbits. It is further analyzed that an increase in any of these parameters has destabilizing effects on the orbits of the infinitesimal.</p>
