Analytical study of chaos and applications
G. Contopoulos, M. Harsoula, C. Efthymiopoulos
We summarize various cases where chaotic orbits can be described analytically. First we consider the case of a magnetic bottle where we have non-resonant and resonant ordered and c…

Orbits in a non-Kerr Dynamical System
G. Contopoulos, G. Lukes-Gerakopoulos, T. A. Apostolatos
We study the orbits in a Manko-Novikov type metric (MN) which is a perturbed Kerr metric. There are periodic, quasi-periodic, and chaotic orbits, which are found in configuration s…

Stickiness in Chaos
G. Contopoulos, M. Harsoula
We distinguish two types of stickiness in systems of two degrees of freedom (a) stickiness around an island of stability and (b) stickiness in chaos, along the unstable asymptotic…
