Dynamics of planets in retrograde mean motion resonance

Julie Gayon, Eric Bois, Hans Scholl

In a previous paper (Gayon & Bois 2008a), we have shown the general efficiency of retrograde resonances for stabilizing compact planetary systems. Such retrograde resonances can be…

Are retrograde resonances possible in multi-planet systems?

Julie Gayon, Eric Bois

Most multi-planetary systems are characterized by hot-Jupiters close to their central star, moving on eccentric orbits. From a dynamical point of view, compact multi-planetary syst…

On the oscillations in Mercury's obliquity

E. Bois, N. Rambaux

One major objective of MESSENGER and BepiColombo spatial missions is to accurately measure Mercury's rotation and its obliquity in order to obtain constraints on internal structure…

Mercury's spin-orbit model and signature of its dynamical parameters

Nicolas Rambaux, Eric Bois

The 3:2 spin-orbit resonance between the rotational and orbital motions of Mercury results from a functional dependance on a tidal friction adding to a non-zero eccentricity with a…

Theory of the Mercury's spin-orbit motion and analysis of its main librations

Nicolas Rambaux, Eric Bois

The upcoming space missions, MESSENGER and BepiColombo with onboard instrumentation capable of measuring the rotational parameters stimulate the objective to reach an accurate theo…

The Impact of the Chrono-geometrical Structure of Spacetime on Causality

Eric Bois, Eric Trelut

We discuss the usual account of causal structure that relies on the temporal precedence constraint between cause-effect pairs. In particular, we consider the subtle interplay betwe…
