What are the equations of motion of classical physics?
Carmen Chicone
Action at a distance in Newtonian physics is replaced by finite propagation speeds in classical physics, the physics defined by the field theories of Maxwell and Einstein. As a res…

Delay Equations and Radiation Damping
C. Chicone, S. M. Kopeikin, B. Mashhoon +1
Starting from delay equations that model field retardation effects, we study the origin of runaway modes that appear in the solutions of the classical equations of motion involving…

Chaos in the Hill system
C. Chicone, B. Mashhoon, D. G. Retzloff
We define the general Hill system and briefly analyze its dynamical behavior. A particular Hill system representing the interaction of a Keplerian binary system with a normally inc…
