In the restricted three-body problem, consecutive collision orbits are those orbits which start and end at collisions with one of the primaries. Interests for such orbits arise not only from mathematics but also from various engineering…
The problem of three different masses bound by harmonic oscillator potentials is solved exactly. It is shown that Jacobi coordinates cannot, in general, decouple this system into two three-dimensional oscillators but this decoupling can…

We intend to study a modified version of the planar Circular Restricted Three-Body Problem (CRTBP) by incorporating several perturbing parameters. We consider the bigger primary as an oblate spheroid and emitting radiation while the small…
We study the spatial circular restricted problem of three bodies in the light of Nekhoroshev theory of stability over large time intervals. We consider in particular the Sun-Jupiter model and the Trojan asteroids in the neighborhood of the…
This paper is devoted to the study of secondary resonances and the stability of the Lagrangian point L4 in the spatial restricted three-body problem for moderate mass ratios (mu), meaning that mu is smaller than 0.0045. However, we…
We study the motion of test particles around a center of attraction represented by a monopole (with and without spheroidal deformation) surrounded by a ring, given as a superposition of Morgan & Morgan discs. We deal with two kinds of…
Determination of stability and instability of singular points in nonlinear dynamical systems is an important issue that has attracted considerable attention in different fields of engineering and science. So far, different well-defined…
The elliptic restricted three body problem has been well studied. However, the previous formulations of the problem have used a rotating coordinate system to keep the positions of the primary and secondary on the x-axis. This requires the…

We consider the problem of $n$ points with positive masses interacting pairwise with forces inversely proportional to the distance between them. In particular, it is the classical gravitational, Coulomb or photo-gravitational $n$-body…
A geometric method, using the Ricci (or mean) curvature of the Lagrangian (configuration) manifold, is used to study the relative instability of evolving $N$-body gravitating systems with massive centres. The performed numerical experiments…
A longstanding belief has been that the semimajor axes, in the Newtonian planetary problem, are stable. In the course of the XIX century, Laplace, Lagrange and others gave stronger and stronger arguments in this direction, thus culminating…
La teoria di Lagrange per i moti secolari delle eccentricit\`a ed inclinazioni delle orbite planetarie si fondava su un'approssimazione, dettata in larga misura dalla complessit\`a dei calcoli necessari, che consisteva nel considerare solo…
We numerically investigate the orbital dynamics of a spacecraft, or a comet, or an asteroid in the Pluto-Charon system in a scattering region around Charon using the planar circular restricted three-body problem. The test particle can move…
Sufficient conditions for the wave instability in general three-component reaction-diffusion systems are derived. These conditions are expressed in terms of the Jacobian matrix of the uniform steady state of the system, and enable us to…

The influence of the irregular forces on the evolution of a triple hierarchical stellar system moving in the field of stars have been studied. Triple hierarchical stellar systems are stable in contrary to the stellar systems with comparable…
