We discusse a relativistic Hamiltonian for an n-body problem in which all the masses are equal and all spins take value 1/2. In the frame of reference in which the total momentum $\v{P}=0$, the Foldy-Wouthuysen transformation is applies and…
The three-body problem is reexamined in the framework of general relativity. The Newtonian three-body problem admits Euler's collinear solution, where three bodies move around the common center of mass with the same orbital period and…
We study a three dimensional continuous model of gravitating matter rotating at constant angular velocity. In the rotating reference frame, by a finite dimensional reduction, we prove the existence of non radial stationary solutions whose…
The simplest non-collision solutions of the N-body problem are the "relative equilibria", in which each body follows a circular orbit around the centre of mass and the shape formed by the N bodies is constant. It is easy to see that the…
We prove that if for relative equilibrium solutions of a generalisation of the $n$-body problem of celestial mechanics the masses and rotation are given, then the minimum distance between the point masses of such a relative equilibrium has…
One of the outstanding problems of classical celestial mechanics was the restricted 3-body prob- lem, in which a planetoid of small mass is subject to the Newtonian attraction of two celestial bodies of large mass, as it occurs, for…
A new coordinate system is defined for the Four-Body dynamical problem with general masses, having as its origin of coordinates the center of mass. The transformation from the inertial coordinate system involves a combination of a rotation…
We investigate the motion of one and two charged non-relativistic particles on a sphere in the presence of a magnetic field of uniform strength. For one particle, the motion is always circular, and determined by a simple relation between…
We consider the Newtonian planar three-body problem, defining a syzygy (velocity syzygy) as a configuration where the positions (velocities) of the three bodies become collinear. We demonstrate that if the total energy is negative, every…
We consider bound states of asymmetric three-body systems confined to two dimensions. In the universal regime, two energy ratios and two mass ratios provide complete knowledge of the three-body energy measured in units of one two-body…
Recent work in the literature has studied the restricted three-body problem within the framework of effective-field-theory models of gravity. This paper extends such a program by considering the full three-body problem, when the Newtonian…
We prove a criterion for stability of relative equilibria in symmetric Hamiltonian systems at singular points of the momentum map. This generalizes a theorem of G.W. Patrick. The method of the proof is also useful in studying the…
It is well known that the three-body problem has few analytical solutions in certain symmetrical constraints; the Lagrangian triangular solution is one of them. This triangular solution has been revisited by R.Broucke and H.Lass in 1971,…
At its core, hydrodynamics is a many-body low-energy effective theory for the long-wavelength, long-timescale dynamics of conserved charges in systems close to thermodynamic equilibrium. It has a wide range of applications spanning from…
In this study, the quantum 3-body harmonic system with finite rest length $R$ and zero total angular momentum $L=0$ is explored. It governs the near-equilibrium $S$-states eigenfunctions $\psi(r_{12},r_{13},r_{23})$ of three identical point…
We consider an elliptic equation with purely imaginary, highly heterogeneous, and large random potential with a sufficiently rapidly decaying correlation function. We show that its solution is well approximated by the solution to a…
Starting from a relativistic s-wave scattering length model for the two particle input we construct an unambiguous, unitary solution of the relativistic three body problem given only the masses $m_a,m_b,m_c$ and the masses of the two body…
The problem of three particles interacting through harmonic forces is discussed within the Newtonian formalism. By means of a didactic approach, an exact analytical solution is found, and ways to extend it to the N-body case are pointed…
We investigate three-body motion in three dimensions under the interaction potential proportional to r^alpha (alpha \neq 0) or log r, where r represents the mutual distance between bodies, with the following conditions: (I) the moment of…
Employing techniques from scattering amplitudes and effective field theory, we model the dynamics of hierarchical triples, which are three-body systems composed of two bodies separated by a distance $r$ and a third body a distance $\rho$…
