Orbital and escape dynamics in barred galaxies - II. The 3D system: Exploring the role of the normally hyperbolic invariant manifolds
Christof Jung, Euaggelos E. Zotos
A three degrees of freedom (3-dof) barred galaxy model composed of a spherically symmetric nucleus, a bar, a flat disc and a spherically symmetric dark matter halo is used for inve…
Fractal basin boundaries and escape dynamics in a multiwell potential
Euaggelos E. Zotos
The escape dynamics in a two-dimensional multiwell potential is explored. A thorough numerical investigation is conducted in several types of two-dimensional planes and also in a t…
Escape and collision dynamics in the planar equilateral restricted four-body problem
Euaggelos E. Zotos
We consider the planar circular equilateral restricted four body-problem where a test particle of infinitesimal mass is moving under the gravitational attraction of three primary b…
Fractal basins of attraction in the planar circular restricted three-body problem with oblateness and radiation pressure
Euaggelos E. Zotos
In this paper we use the planar circular restricted three-body problem where one of the primary bodies is an oblate spheroid or an emitter of radiation in order to determine the ba…
Classifying orbits of low and high energy stars in axisymmetric disk galaxies
Euaggelos E. Zotos
The ordered or chaotic character of orbits of stars moving in the meridional plane of an analytic axisymmetric time-independent disk galaxy model with an additional spheric…
Revealing the network of periodic orbits in galaxy models with a prolate or an oblate dark matter halo component
Euaggelos E. Zotos
Locating the position of periodic orbits in galaxies is undoubtedly an issue of paramount importance. We reveal the position and the stability of periodic orbits of stars moving in…
