It is shown that a very simple three-body monopole term can solve practically all the spectroscopic problems--in the $p$, $sd$ and $pf$ shells--that were hitherto assumed to need drastic revisions of the realistic potentials.
In the planar $n$-body problem, the problem of infinite spin occurs for both parabolic and collision solutions. Recently Moeckel and Montgomery \cite{MM25} showed that there is no infinite spin for total collision solutions, when the…
We consider the 3-body problem in relativistic lineal gravity and obtain an exact expression for its Hamiltonian and equations of motion. While general-relativistic effects yield more tightly-bound orbits of higher frequency compared to…
We consider a nonautonomous semilinear elliptic problem where the power nonlinearity is multiplied by a discontinuous coefficient that equals one inside a bounded open set $\Omega$ and it equals minus one in its complement. In the slightly…

We test numerically the recently proposed linear relationship between the scale-invariant period $T_{\rm s.i.} = T |E|^{3/2}$, and the topology of an orbit, on several hundred planar Newtonian periodic three-body orbits. Here $T$ is the…

In this paper we study the linear stability of relative equilibria in the Newtonian $n$-body problem from the viewpoint of electromagnetic systems. We first examine the effect of the ambient dimension on stability, starting from the…
Using variational methods, we establish the existence of infinitely many solutions to an elliptic problem driven by a Choquard term and a singular nonlinearity. We further show that if the problem has a positive solution, then it is bounded…
The conservation of energy, linear momentum and angular momentum are important drivers for our physical understanding of the evolution of the Universe. These quantities are also conserved in Newton's laws of motion under gravity…
Euler's three-body problem is the problem of solving for the motion of a particle moving in a Newtonian potential generated by two point sources fixed in space. This system is integrable in the Liouville sense. We consider the Euler problem…
