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…
Kozai-Lidov oscillations of Jupiter-mass planets, excited by comparable planetary or brown dwarf mass perturbers were recently shown in numerical experiments to be slowly modulated and to exhibit striking features, including extremely high…
Hamiltonian normal forms allow for the analytical approximation of center manifold trajectories and their invariant manifolds through the separation of the saddle and center subspaces that make up the dynamics at the collinear libration…
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…
We use three dimensional hydrodynamical simulations to show that a highly misaligned accretion disk around one component of a binary system can exhibit global Kozai-Lidov cycles, where the inclination and eccentricity of the disk are…
The problem of $N$ particles interacting through pairwise central forces is notoriously intractable for $N\geq3$. Some quite remarkable specific cases have been solved in one dimension, whereas higher-dimensional exactly solved systems…
Recent results by Martin et al. (2014) showed in 3D SPH simulations that tilted discs in binary systems can be unstable to the development of global, damped Kozai-Lidov (KL) oscillations in which the discs exchange tilt for eccentricity. We…
A fundamental aspect of the three-body problem is its stability. Most stability studies have focused on the co-planar three-body problem, deriving analytic criteria for the dynamical stability of such pro/retrograde systems. Numerical…

General properties of the three-body problem in a model of modified dynamics are investigated. It is shown that the three-body problem in this model shares some characters with the similar problem in Newtonian dynamics. Moreover, the planar…
Aim. The eccentric von Zeipel-Lidov-Kozai (ZLK) effect is widely used to explain dynamical phenomena in varieties of astrophysical systems. The purpose of this work is to make clear the dynamical essence of the eccentric ZLK effect by…
As the discoveries of more minor bodies in retrograde resonances with giant planets, such as 2015 BZ509 and 2006 RJ2, our curiosity about the Kozai-Lidov dynamics inside the retrograde resonance has been sparked. In this study, we focus on…
We consider the elliptic three body problem as a perturbation of the circular problem. We show that for sufficiently small eccentricities of the elliptic problem, and for energies sufficiently close to the energy of the libration point L2,…
The set of transverse homoclinic intersections for a saddle-focus equilibrium in the planar equilateral restricted four-body problem admit certain simple homoclinic orbits which form the skeleton of the complete homoclinic intersection --…
We study the equal-mass classical three rotor problem, a variant of the three body problem of celestial mechanics. The quantum $N$-rotor problem has been used to model chains of coupled Josephson junctions and also arises via a partial…
The restricted three body problem is well-known and very important for dynamics of binary, multiple stars and also planetary systems. We extend the classical version of this problem to the situation that there are some external forces from…
This study examines the dynamics of the third body in an elliptic restricted three-body problem (ERTBP) framework, taking into account perturbations from radiation pressure, oblateness, and elongation of the primary bodies, as well as…
We consider the planar three-body problem perturbed by a celestial body modeled as a time-dependent perturbation that decays in time. We assume that the motion of the celestial body is given and is unbounded with a non-zero asymptotic…
Nonrestricted hierarchical three-body configurations are common in various scales of astrophysical systems. Dynamical structures of the quadrupole-order resonance (the von Zeipel-Lidov-Kozai resonance) and the octupole-order resonance (the…
The Restricted 3-Body Problem models the motion of a body of negligible mass under the gravitational influence of two massive bodies, called the primaries. If the primaries perform circular motions and the massless body is coplanar with…
