Abstract

This paper studies the main features of the dynamics around a massive annular disk. The first part addresses the difficulties finding an appropriated expression of the gravitational potential of a massive disk, which will be used to define the differential equations of motion of our dynamical system. The second part describes the main features of the dynamics with special attention to equilibrium of the system.
