Many exo-solar systems discovered in the last decade consist of planets orbiting in resonant configurations and consequently, their evolution should show long-term stability. However, due to the mutual planetary interactions a multi-planet…

Trajectory design in highly-perturbed environments like binary asteroids is challenging. It typically requires using realistic, non-autonomous dynamical models in which periodic solutions derived in autonomous systems vanish. In this work,…
Using the results of Pichardo \et (2005,2008), we determine regions of dynamical stability where planets (or discs in general) could survive in stable orbits around binary stellar systems. We produce this study for 161 binary stars in the…

We study the rhomboidal symmetric-mass 4-body problem in both a two-degree-of-freedom and a four-degree-of-freedom setting. Under suitable changes of variables in both settings, isolated binary collisions at the origin are regularizable.…
We study the stationary points of the hierarchical three body problem in the planetary limit (m_2, m_3 << m_1) at both the quadrupole and octupole orders. We demonstrate that the extension to octupole order preserves the principal…
The stability limit for circumbinary planets (CBPs) is not well defined and can depend on initial parameters defining either the planetary orbit or the inner binary orbit. We expand on the work of Holman & Wiegert (1999, AJ 117, 621) to…
