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 one assumes that the primaries perform circular motions and that all three bodies…
The fundamental correspondence between quantum chaotic single-particle systems and random matrix theory is well-understood via periodic orbit theory. In contrast, we show that many-body systems with explicit subsystem structure possess…
