Three body systems where one of the bodies is ejected without escaping the binary system have previously been studied in various restricted forms. However, none of these studies dwells on the problem in a general setting. Thus, to study…
The relation between the separability of a system of charged particles in a uniform magnetic field and Galilean symmetry is revisited using Duval's "Bargmann framework". If the charge-to-mass ratios of the particles are identical,…
Other than scattering problems where perturbation theory is applicable, there are basically two ways to solve problems in physics. One is to reduce the problem to harmonic oscillators, and the other is to formulate the problem in terms of…
We study a harmonic molecule confined to a one--dimensional box with impenetrable walls. We explicitly consider the symmetry of the problem for the cases of different and equal masses. We propose suitable variational functions and compare…
Hamiltonian formulation of N=3 systems is considered in general. The Jacobi equation is solved in three classes. Compatible Poisson structures in these classes are determined and explicitly given. The corresponding bi-Hamiltonian systems…
The properties of a system of n = 3 coupled oscillators with linear terms in the velocities (magnetic terms) depending in two parameters are studied. We proved the existence of a bi-Hamiltonian structure arising from a non-symplectic…
We derive expressions for three-body phase space that are explicitly symmetrical in the masses of the three particles, by three separate methods.
The effective potential is computed for two boson systems in one trap as a function of their two individual hyperadii and the distance between their centers. Zero-range interactions are used and only relative s-states are included.…
We develop a framework based on energy kicks for the evolution of high-eccentricity long-period orbits with Jacobi constant close to 3 in the restricted circular planar three-body problem where the secondary and primary masses have mass…
The classical three-body harmonic system in $\mathbb{R}^d$ ($d>1$) with finite rest lengths and zero total angular momentum $L=0$ is considered. This model describes the dynamics of the $L=0$ near-equilibrium configurations of three point…
The real coordinates separating geodesic Hamilton-Jacobi equation on three-dimensional Minkowski space in several cases cannot be defined in the whole space. We show through an example how to naturally extend them to complex variables…
We calculate resonances which are formed by a particle in a potential which is either Coulombian or quadratic when the particle is strongly coupled to a massless boson, taking only two energy levels into consideration. From these…
We consider two linearly coupled masses, where one mass can have inelastic impacts with a fixed, rigid stop. This leads to the study of a two degree of freedom, piecewise linear, frictionless, unforced, constrained mechanical system. The…
We consider the Earth-Moon planar circular restricted three body problem and present a proof of the existence orbits, which approach arbitrarily close to one of the primary masses, and at the same time after each approach they move away…
Despite their simplicity, quantum harmonic oscillators are ubiquitous in the modeling of physical systems. They are able to capture universal properties that serve as reference for the more complex systems found in nature. In this spirit,…
The coordinate of a harmonic oscillator is measured at a time chosen at random among three equiprobable instants: now, after one third of the period, or after two thirds. The (total) probability that the outcome is positive depends on the…
According to Feynman, the universe consists of two parts - the system in which we are interested and the rest of the universe which our measurement process does not reach. Feynman then formulates the density matrix in terms of the…
We derive expressions for three-body phase space that are explicitly symmetrical in the masses of the three particles. We study geometrical properties of the variables involved in elliptic integrals and demonstrate that it is convenient to…
The non-symmetrized hyperspherical harmonics method for a three-body system, composed by two particles having equal masses, but different from the mass of the third particle, is reviewed and applied to the $^3$H, $^3$He nuclei and…
We examine the problem of motion of an oscillating mass object provided no external force is applied to it. Calculations directly lead to the conclusion that the body accelerates in each system of reference except for the rest reference…
