Abstract
AbstractWe address the question of identifying the long-term (secular) stability regions in the semi-major axis-eccentricity projected phase space of the Sun-Jupiter planar circular restricted three-body problem in the domains i) below the curve of apsis equal to the planet’s orbital radius (ensuring protection from collisions) and ii) above that curve. This last domain contains several Jupiter’s crossing trajectories. We discuss the structure of the numerical stability map in the (a,e) plane in relation to manifold dynamics. We also present a closed-form perturbation theory for particles with non-crossing highly eccentric trajectories exterior to the planet’s trajectory. Starting with a multipole expansion of the barycentric Hamiltonian, our method carries out a sequence of normalizations by Lie series in closed-form and without relegation. We discuss the applicability of the method as a criterion for estimating the boundary of the domain of regular motion.
