The Hill Restricted 4-Body Problem (HR4BP) is a coherent time-periodic model that can be used to represent motion in the Sun-Earth-Moon (SEM) system. Periodic orbits were computed in this model to better understand the periodic orbit family…

In this paper, we present a new ansatz for solving equations of motion for the trapped orbits of the infinitesimal mass (satellite), which is locked in the space trap to be moving near the planet in case of the elliptic restricted problem…

Single-binary scattering may lead to an exchange where the single object captures a component of the binary, forming a new binary. This has been well studied in encounters between a star--planet pair and a single star. Here we explore the…

Asteroids in mean motion resonances with giant planets are common in the solar system, but it was not until recently that several asteroids in retrograde mean motion resonances with Jupiter and Saturn were discovered. A retrograde…

In a previous paper (Gayon & Bois 2008a), we have shown the general efficiency of retrograde resonances for stabilizing compact planetary systems. Such retrograde resonances can be found when two-planets of a three-body planetary system are…

We consider the Earth-Moon planar circular restricted three body problem and present a proof of the existence orbits, which approach arbitrarily close to one of the primary masses, and at the same time after each approach they move away…

Most of the planetary systems discovered around binary stars are located at approximately three semi-major axes from the barycentre of their system, curiously close to low-order mean-motion resonances (MMRs). The formation mechanism of…
