Dynamical properties of the Molniya satellite constellation: long-term evolution of the semi-major axis
Jerome Daquin, Elisa Maria Alessi, Joseph O'Leary +2
We describe the phase space structures related to the semi-major axis of Molniya-like satellites subject to tesseral and lunisolar resonances. In particular, the questions answered…
Effective resonant stability of Mercury
M. Sansottera, C. Lhotka, A. Lemaître
Mercury is the unique known planet that is situated in a 3:2 spin-orbit resonance nowadays. Observations and models converge to the same conclusion: the planet is presently deeply…
Effective stability around the Cassini state in the spin-orbit problem
Marco Sansottera, Christoph Lhotka, Anne Lemaître
We investigate the long-time stability in the neighborhood of the Cassini state in the conservative spin-orbit problem. Starting with an expansion of the Hamiltonian in the canonic…
A numerical exploration of Miranda's dynamical history
Emilie Verheylewegen, Benoit Noyelles, Anne Lemaitre
The Uranian satellite Miranda presents a high inclination (4.338°) and evidences of resurfacing. It is accepted since 20 years (e.g. Tittemore and Wisdom 1989, Malhotra and Dermott…
Symplectic integration of space debris motion considering several Earth's shadowing models
Ch. Hubaux, A. Lemaître, N. Delsate +1
In this work, we present a symplectic integration scheme to numerically compute space debris motion. Such an integrator is particularly suitable to obtain reliable trajectories of…
Core-mantle interactions for Mercury
B. Noyelles, J. Dufey, A. Lemaitre
Mercury is the target of two space missions: MESSENGER (NASA) which orbit insertion is planned for March 2011, and ESA/JAXA BepiColombo, that should be launched in 2014. Their inst…
