Convergence of a Periodic Orbit Family Close to Asteroids During a Continuation
Haokun Kang, Yu Jiang, Hengnian Li
In this work, we study the continuation of a periodic orbit on a relatively large scale and discover the existence of convergence under certain conditions, which has profound signi…

Orbital Stability Close to Asteroid 624 Hektor using the Polyhedral Model
Yu Jiang, Hexi Baoyin, Hengnian Li
We investigate the orbital stability close to the unique L4-point Jupiter binary Trojan asteroid 624 Hektor. The gravitational potential of 624 Hektor is calculated using the polyh…
