Our concern here is the nature of secondary resonances--commensurabilities between apsidal and libration periods lying within first-order mean motion resonances [mmr] in the solar system. At the 4/3 and 3/2 mmr in the asteroid belt, we find…
Today, the Global Navigation Satellite Systems, used as global positioning systems, are the GPS and the GLONASS. They are based on a Newtonian model and hence they are only operative when several relativistic effects are taken into account.…
We explore a hybrid expansion of the disturbing function in planetary dynamics that combines elements of the classical Laplace and Legendre developments. This formulation retains the structure of the Laplace expansion, but expresses the…
We propose a semianalytical method to compute the strengths on each of the three massive bodies participating in a three body mean motion resonance (3BR). Applying this method we explore the dependence of the strength on the masses, the…
Tidal and tidal-resonant effects in coalescing compact binary systems are investigated by direct numerical integration of the equations of motion. For the stars polytropic models are used. The tidal effects are found to be dominated by the…
The general PDE governing linear, adiabatic, nonraradial oscillations in a spherical, differentially and slowly rotating non-magnetic star is derived. This equation describes mainly low-frequency and high-degree g-modes, convective g-modes,…
This report is a review of Darwin's classical theory of bodily tides in which we present the analytical expressions for the orbital and rotational evolution of the bodies and for the energy dissipation rates due to their tidal interaction.…
We discuss a model describing the spin orbit resonance cascade. We assume that the primary has a two-layer (core-shell) structure: it is composed by a thin solid crust and an inner and heavier solid core that are interacting due to the…
Chaotic diffusion is supposed to be responsible for orbital instabilities in planetary systems after the dissipation of the protoplanetary disk, and a natural consequence of irregular motion. In this paper we show that resonant…
Despite extended past studies, several questions regarding the resonant structure of the medium-Earth orbit (MEO) region remain hitherto unanswered. This work describes in depth the effects of the $2g+h$ lunisolar resonance. In particular,…
The approximately geometric spacing of orbital distances in planetary and regular satellite systems has long been recognized, yet its dynamical evolution remains poorly constrained. In this paper, we investigate the secular evolution of the…
Motion of stellar-mass satellites is studied around a massive compact body which is surrounded by a gaseous slab of a stationary accretion disc. The satellites suffer an orbital decay due to hydrodynamical interaction with the disc medium…
The ultracool M-dwarf star TRAPPIST-1 is surrounded by seven planets configured in a resonant chain. Transit-timing variations have shown that the planets are caught in multiple three-body resonances and that their orbits are slightly…
In this work, two multi-harmonic Hamiltonian models for mean motion resonances are formulated and their applications to first-order resonances are discussed. For the $k_p$:$k$ resonance, the usual critical argument $\varphi = k \lambda -…
Recent works suggest that, in multiplanetary systems, a close-in exoplanet can sometimes avoid becoming tidally locked to its host star if it is captured into a secular spin-orbit resonance with a companion planet. In such a resonance, the…
Extreme mass ratio inspirals (EMRIs) will be important sources for future space-based gravitational-wave detectors. In recent work, tidal resonances in binary orbital evolution induced by the tidal field of nearby stars or black holes have…
Transit timing variations (TTVs) are useful to constrain the existence of perturbing planets, especially in resonant systems where the variations are strongly enhanced. Here we focus on Laplace-resonant three-planet systems, and assume the…
Over the course of the last two decades, traditional models of planet formation have been repeatedly challenged by the emerging census of extrasolar planets. Key among them is the orbital architecture problem: while standard models of…
Earth tidal perturbations affecting laser-ranged satellites are critical for refining satellite orbital dynamics modeling, and their accurate computation represents a prerequisite for high-precision fundamental physical effects and geodetic…
We study the effects of a non singular gravitational potential on satellite orbits by deriving the corresponding time rates of change of its orbital elements. This is achieved by expanding the non singular potential into power series up to…
