We study the generation of three-dimensional periodic orbits of the general three-body problem from special generating plane orbits, the vertical-critical orbits. The bifurcation process is examined analytically and geometrically. A method of obtaining numerically continuous sets of vertical-critical orbits is outlined, and applied for the determination of 16 monoparametric sets including all possible types of such orbits corresponding to all possible types of symmetry of the bifurcating three-dimensional orbits. The stability of all bifurcation orbits is assessed. Examples of three-dimensional periodic orbits generated from the bifurcation orbits are given. 相似文献

The distant retrograde orbits (DROs) can serve as the parking orbits for a long-term cis-lunar space station. This paper gives a comprehensive study on the transfer problem from DROs to Earth orbits, including low Earth orbits (LEOs), medium Earth orbits (MEOs), and geosynchronous orbits (GSOs), in the bicircular restricted four-body problem (BR4BP) via optimizations within a large solution space. The planar transfer problem is firstly solved by grid search and optimization techniques, and two types of transfer orbits, direct ones and low-energy ones, are both constructed. Then, the nonplanar transfer problem to Earth orbits with inclinations between 0 and 90 degrees are solved via sequential optimizations based on the planar transfers. The transfer characteristics in the cases of different destination orbit inclinations are discussed for both the direct and the low-energy transfer orbits. The important role of the lunar gravity in the low-energy transfers is also discussed, which can overcome the increase of transfer cost caused by the high inclination of Earth orbits. The distinct features of different transfer scenarios, including multiple revolutions around the Earth and Moon, the exterior phase, and the lunar flyby, are discovered. The energy of transfer orbits is exploited to discuss the effects of close lunar flybys. The results will be helpful for the transfer design in future manned or unmanned return missions, and can also provide valuable information for selecting proper parking DROs for cis-lunar space stations.

We apply a numerical searching method to investigate three-dimensional periodic orbits of charged dust particles in planetary magnetospheres. A classic generalized Stormer model of magnetic planets along with the parameters of Saturn is employed. More periodic orbits are found, besides the already known circular periodic orbits in or parallel to the equatorial plane. We divide all these orbits into six categories based on their appearances. By calculating the characteristic multipliers of the orbits, we investigate the stabilities of these periodic orbits. 相似文献

We study the multiple periodic orbits of Hill’s problem with oblate secondary. In particular, the network of families of double and triple symmetric periodic orbits is determined numerically for an arbitrary value of the oblateness coefficient of the secondary. The stability of the families is computed and critical orbits are determined. Attention is paid to the critical orbits at which families of non-symmetric periodic orbits bifurcate from the families of symmetric periodic orbits. Six such bifurcations are found, one for double-periodic and five for triple-periodic orbits. Critical orbits at which families of sub-multiple symmetric periodic orbits bifurcate are also discussed. Finally, we present the full network of families of multiple periodic orbits (up to multiplicity 12) together with the parts of the space of initial conditions corresponding to escape and collision orbits, obtaining a global view of the orbital behavior of this model problem. 相似文献

In the current study, the existence of periodic orbits around a fixed homogeneous cube is investigated, and the results have
powerful implications for examining periodic orbits around non-spherical celestial bodies. In the two different types of symmetry
planes of the fixed cube, periodic orbits are obtained using the method of the Poincaré surface of section. While in general
positions, periodic orbits are found by the homotopy method. The results show that periodic orbits exist extensively in symmetry
planes of the fixed cube, and also exist near asymmetry planes that contain the regular Hex cross section. The stability of
these periodic orbits is determined on the basis of the eigenvalues of the monodromy matrix. This paper proves that the homotopy
method is effective to find periodic orbits in the gravity field of the cube, which provides a new thought of searching for
periodic orbits around non-spherical celestial bodies. The investigation of orbits around the cube could be considered as
the first step of the complicated cases, and helps to understand the dynamics of orbits around bodies with complicated shapes.
The work is an extension of the previous research work about the dynamics of orbits around some simple shaped bodies, including
a straight segment, a circular ring, an annulus disk, and simple planar plates. 相似文献

We study symmetric relative periodic orbits in the isosceles three-body problem using theoretical and numerical approaches.
We first prove that another family of symmetric relative periodic orbits is born from the circular Euler solution besides
the elliptic Euler solutions. Previous studies also showed that there exist infinitely many families of symmetric relative
periodic orbits which are born from heteroclinic connections between triple collisions as well as planar periodic orbits with
binary collisions. We carry out numerical continuation analyses of symmetric relative periodic orbits, and observe abundant
families of symmetric relative periodic orbits bifurcating from the two families born from the circular Euler solution. As
the angular momentum tends to zero, many of the numerically observed families converge to heteroclinic connections between
triple collisions or planar periodic orbits with binary collisions described in the previous results, while some of them converge
to “previously unknown” periodic orbits in the planar problem. 相似文献

We investigate the escape regions of a quartic potential and the main types of irregular periodic orbits. Because of the symmetry of the model the zero velocity curve consists of four summetric arcs forming four open channels around the lines y = ± x through which an orbit can escape. Four unstable Lyapunov periodic orbits bridge these openings.We have found an infinite sequence of families of periodic orbits which is the outer boundary of one of the escape regions and several infinite sequences of periodic orbits inside this region that tend to homoclinic and heteroclinic orbits. Some of these sequences of periodic orbits tend to homoclinic orbits starting perpendicularly and ending asymptotically at the x-axis. The other sequences tend to heteroclinic orbits which intersect the x-axis perpendicularly for x > 0 and make infinite oscillations almost parallel to each of the two Lyapunov orbits which correspond to x > 0 or x < 0. 相似文献

Message and Taylor (1978) have given values of the mean eccentricities and commen-surabilities which correspond to bifurcation orbits of families of symmetric periodic orbits with families of asymmetric periodic orbits in the limit as the mass ratio tends to zero. These bifurcations have been given in a way that they seem to be isolated and unrelated from the whole structure of the periodic orbits of the system.In this paper a numerical investigation of the horizontal stability of the family I and its branches reveals the above bifurcations orbits in the Sun-Jupiter case of the restricted three-body problem and associates these orbits with the whole structure of the system, giving extensive information on them. 相似文献

Within the context of the restricted problem of three bodies, we wish to show the effects, caused by varying the mass ratio of the primaries and the eccentricity of their orbits, upon periodic orbits of the infinitesimal mass that are numerical continuations of circular orbits in the ordinary problem of two bodies. A recursive-power-series technique is used to integrate numerically the equations of motion as well as the first variational equations to generate a two-parameter family of periodic orbits and to identify the linear stability characteristics thereof. Seven such families (comprised of a total of more than 2000 orbits) with equally spaced mass ratios from 0.0 to 1.0 and eccentricities of the orbits of the primaries in a range 0.0 to 0.6 are investigated. Stable orbits are associated with large distances of the infinitesimal mass from the perturbing primary, with nearly circular motion of the primaries, and, to a slightly lesser extent, with small mass ratios of the primaries.Conversely, unstable orbits for the infinitesimal mass are associated with small distances from the perturbing primary, with highly elliptic orbits of the primaries, and with large mass ratios. 相似文献

We locate members of an important category of periodic orbits in the Newtonian four-body problem. These systems perform an interplay motion similar to that of the periodic three-body orbit discovered by Schubart. Such orbits, when stable, have been shown to be a key feature and influence on the dynamics of few-body systems. We consider the restricted case where the masses are collinear and are distributed symmetrically about their centre of mass. A family of orbits is generated from the known (three-dimensionally) unstable equal masses case by varying the mass ratio, whilst maintaining the symmetry. The stability of these orbits to perturbation is studied using linear stability analysis, analytical approximation of limiting cases and nonlinear simulation. We answer the natural question: are there any stable periodic orbits of this kind? Three ranges of the mass ratio are found to have stable orbits and three ranges have unstable orbits for three-dimensional motion. The systems closely resemble their three-body counterparts. Here the family of interplay orbits is simpler requiring just one parameter to characterise the mass ratio. Our results provide a further insight into three-body orbits studied previously. 相似文献

We use a composite galaxy model consisting of a disk-halo, bulge, nucleus and dark-halo components in order to investigate the motion of stars in ther-z plane. It is observed that high angular momentum stars move in regular orbits. The majority of orbits are box orbits. There are also banana-like orbits. For a given value of energy, only a fraction of the low angular momentum stars — those going near the nucleus — show chaotic motion while the rest move in regular orbits. Again one observes the above two kinds of orbits. In addition to the above one can also see orbits with the characteristics of the 2/3 and 3/4 resonance. It is also shown that, in the absence of the bulge component, the area of chaotic motion in the surface of section increases, significantly. This suggests that a larger number of low angular momentum stars are in chaotic orbits in galaxies with massive nuclei and no bulge components. 相似文献

We tested four criteria used for discrimination between asteroidal and cometary type of orbits: Whipple criterion K, Kresak
criterion Pe, Tisserand invariant T and aphelion distance Q. To estimate their reliability, all criteria were applied to classify
the 2225 orbits of NEAs and 582 orbits of comets, for several epochs spanning the time interval of 40 thousands years. The
Q-criterion produced the smallest number of exceptions and has shown the best stability. The biggest number of exceptions
and the biggest variations are obtained for the K-criterion. We applied the Q-criterion to classify meteor orbits from the
IAU Meteor Data Center and the video meteor orbits available on the Web sites. Among the sporadic radar orbits, as well as
among the mean orbits of meteor streams a strong preponderance of asteroid-type orbits was observed. In case of the photographic
and video meteors a weak preponderance of cometary and asteroidal orbits was found, respectively. 相似文献

We study the distribution of regular and irregular periodic orbits on a Poincaré surface of section of a simple Hamiltonian system of 2 degrees of freedom. We explain the appearance of many lines of periodic orbits that form Farey trees. There are also lines that are very close to the asymptotic curves of the unstable periodic orbits. Some regular orbits, sometimes stable, are found inside the homoclinic tangle. We explain this phenomenon, which shows that the homoclinic tangle does not cover the whole area around an unstable orbit, but has gaps. Inside the lobes only irregular orbits appear, and some of them are stable. We conjecture that the opposite is also true, i.e. all irregular orbits are inside lobes. 相似文献

We study the role of asymptotic curves in supporting the spiral structure of a N-body model simulating a barred spiral galaxy. Chaotic orbits with initial conditions on the unstable asymptotic manifolds of the main unstable periodic orbits follow the shape of the periodic orbits for an initial interval of time and then they are diffused outwards along the spiral structure of the galaxy. Chaotic orbits having small deviations from the unstable periodic orbits, stay close and along the corresponding unstable asymptotic manifolds, supporting the spiral structure for more than 10 rotations of the bar. Chaotic orbits of different Jacobi constants support different parts of the spiral structure. We also study the diffusion rate of chaotic orbits outwards and find that the orbits that support the outer parts of the galaxy are diffused outwards more slowly than the orbits supporting the inner parts of the spiral structure. 相似文献

Transit orbits are defined as the trajectories that can pass through the neck region of the zero velocity surface in the circular restricted three-body problem (CR3BP). The low-energy transfers in the CR3BP or between two CR3BPs are always through the instrumentality of the transit orbits. In this paper, the distribution of the transit orbits in the six-dimensional phase space is explored by using numerical methods. The necessary and sufficient condition of transition is introduced, which defines the distribution of the transit orbits by using the manifolds of the vertical and horizontal Lyapunov orbits and the transit cones. The relationship between the manifolds of the libration point orbits and the boundary of the transit orbits is discovered. By using this relationship, a fast algorithm for detecting the boundary of the transit orbits is developed. Moreover, this boundary is parametrized by using Fourier series, which makes easy to use the conclusions of this paper in future trajectory optimization and mission design. All the analyses in this paper are based on the Sun?CEarth CR3BP, but the methods introduced here can be extended to any CR3BPs. 相似文献

We show by a general argument that periodic solutions of the planar problem of three bodies (with given masses) form one-parameter families. This result is confirmed by numerical investigations: two orbits found earlier by Standish and Szebehely are shown to belong to continuous one-parameter families of periodic orbits. In general these orbits have a non-zero angular momentum, and the configuration after one period is rotated with respect to the initial configuration. Similar general arguments whow that in the three-dimensional problem, periodic orbits form also one-parameter families; in the one-dimensional problem, periodic orbits are isolated. 相似文献

In this paper, distant quasi-periodic orbits around Mercury are studied for future Mercury missions. All of these orbits have relatively large sizes, with their altitudes near or above the Mercury sphere of influence. The research is carried out in the framework of the elliptic restricted three-body problem (ER3BP) to account for the planet’s non-negligible orbital eccentricity. Retrograde and prograde quasi-periodic trajectories in the planar ER3BP are generalized from periodic orbits in the CR3BP by the homotopy algorithm, and the shape evolution of such quasi-periodic trajectories around Mercury is investigated. Numerical simulations are performed to evaluate the stability of these distant orbits in the long term. These two classes of orbits present different characteristics: retrograde orbits can maintain shape stability with a large size, although the trajectories in some regions may oscillate with larger amplitudes; for prograde orbits, the range of existence is much smaller, and their trajectories easily move away from the vicinity of Mercury when the orbits become larger. Distant orbits can be used to explore the space environment in the vicinity of Mercury, and some orbits can be taken as transfer orbits for low-cost Mercury return missions or other programs for their high maneuverability. 相似文献

This paper proposes the use of doubly-symmetric, eight-shaped orbits in the circular restricted three-body problem for continuous coverage of the high-latitude regions of the Earth. These orbits, for a range of amplitudes, spend a large fraction of their period above either pole of the Earth. It is shown that they complement Sun-synchronous polar and highly eccentric Molniya orbits, and present a possible alternative to low thrust pole-sitter orbits. Both natural and solar-sail displaced orbits are considered. Continuation methods are described and used to generate families of these orbits. Starting from ballistic orbits, other families are created either by increasing the sail lightness number, varying the period or changing the sail attitude. Some representative orbits are then chosen to demonstrate the visibility of high-latitude regions throughout the year. A stability analysis is also performed, revealing that the orbits are unstable: it is found that for particular orbits, a solar sail can reduce their instability. A preliminary design of a linear quadratic regulator is presented as a solution to stabilize the system by using the solar sail only. Finally, invariant manifolds are exploited to identify orbits that present the opportunity of a ballistic transfer directly from low Earth orbit. 相似文献

A systematic approach to generate periodic orbits in the elliptic restricted problem of three bodies in introduced. The approach is based on (numerical) continuation from periodic orbits of the first and second kind in the circular restricted problem to periodic orbits in the elliptic restricted problem. Two families of periodic orbits of the elliptic restricted problem are found by this approach. The mass ratio of the primaries of these orbits is equal to that of the Sun-Jupiter system. The sidereal mean motions between the infinitesimal body and the smaller primary are in a 2:5 resonance, so as to approximate the Sun-Jupiter-Saturn system. The linear stability of these periodic orbits are studied as functions of the eccentricities of the primaries and of the infinitesimal body. The results show that both stable and unstable periodic orbits exist in the elliptic restricted problem that are close to the actual Sun-Jupiter-Saturn system. However, the periodic orbit closest to the actual Sun-Jupiter-Saturn system is (linearly) stable. 相似文献
