Abstract Numerical solutions of the recently proposed equations of motion for the classically radiating electron are obtained for the case where the particle moves in a one-dimensional Coulomb potential (both attractive and repulsive). The solutions are discussed and found to be meaningful also in that case, where the well-known Lorentz-Dirac equation fails (attractive Coulomb force). Discrete, stationary states are found in a non-singular version of the Coulomb potential. During the transition between those stationary states the particle looses energy by emission of radiation, which results in a smaller amplitude of the stationary oscillations.

The two-body problem in central fields (reducible to a central-force problem) models a lot of concrete astronomical situations. The corresponding vector fields (in Cartesian and polar coordinates, extended via collision-blow-up and infinity-blow-up transformations) exhibit nice symmetries that form eight-element Abelian groups endowed with an idempotent structure. All these groups are isomorphic, which is not a trivial result, given the different structures of the corresponding phase spaces. Each of these groups contains seven four-element subgroups isomorphic to Klein?s group. These symmetries are of much help in understanding various characteristics of the global flow of the general problem or of a concrete problem at hand, and are essential in searching for periodic orbits.

A survey of topics of recent interest in Hamiltonian and Lagrangian dynamical systems, including accessible discussions of regularization of the central-force problem; inequivalent Lagrangians and Hamiltonians; constants of central-force motion; a general discussion of higher order Lagrangians and Hamiltonians, with examples from Bohmian quantum mechanics, the Korteweg–de Vries equation, and the logistic equation; gauge theories of Newtonian mechanics; and classical spin, Grassmann numbers, and pseudomechanics.
