Mean-motion resonances in satellite–disc interactions
Mean-motion resonances between a Keplerian disc and an orbiting companion are analysed within a Hamiltonian formulation using complex canonical Poincaré variables, which are ideally suited to the description of eccentricity and inclination dynamics. Irreversibility is introduced by allowing for dissipation within the disc. A method is given for determining the rates of change of eccentricity an...
متن کاملExtrasolar Planets and Mean-Motion Resonances
The 2:1 orbital resonances of the GJ 876 system can be easily established by the differential planet migration due to planet-nebula interaction. Significant eccentricity damping is required to produce the observed orbital eccentricities. The geometry of the GJ 876 resonance configuration differs from that of the Io-Europa pair, and this difference is due to the magnitudes of the eccentricities ...
متن کاملMean Motion Resonances from Planet-planet Scattering
Planet-planet scattering is the leading mechanism to explain the large eccentricities of the observed exoplanet population. However, scattering has not been considered important to the production of pairs of planets in mean motion resonances (MMRs). We present results from a large number of numerical simulations of dynamical instabilities in 3-planet systems. We show that MMRs arise naturally i...
متن کاملDiffusion of Asteroids in Mean Motion Resonances
We study transport in the action space of the planar elliptic restricted three-body problem, for values of the semi-major axis, a, corresponding to the outer asteroid belt (3:45AU a 3:90AU). Numerical estimates of the local diffusion coefficient, D, are made and the results are presented in the form of ‘diffusion maps’. For resonances of order q 5 the functional dependence of D on the free ecce...
متن کاملMean Motion Resonances in the Transneptunian RegionPart II: The 1 : 2, 3 : 4, and Weaker Resonances
The stability of orbits in the transneptunian region is numerically computed. It is found that, in analogy to the asteroid belt, there exist many chaotic layers associated with thin mean-motion resonances. These are either moderateand high-order resonances with Neptune or three-body resonances with Neptune and Uranus. The orbital eccentricity chaotically increases at the thin resonances, allowi...
