The Conley–Zehnder indices of the spatial Hill three-body problem

C Aydin - Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy, 2023 - Springer
We explore the interaction between the Conley–Zehnder index and bifurcation points of
symmetric planar as well as spatial periodic orbits in the spatial Hill three-body problem. We …

Contact geometry of Hill's approximation in a spatial restricted four-body problem

C Aydin - arXiv preprint arXiv:2407.06927, 2024 - arxiv.org
It is well-known that the planar and spatial circular restricted three-body problem (CR3BP) is
of contact type for all energy values below the first critical value. Burgos-Garc\'ia and Gidea …

From Babylonian lunar observations to Floquet multipliers and Conley–Zehnder indices

C Aydin - Journal of Mathematical Physics, 2023 - pubs.aip.org
In 1878, Hill found numerically, in his limiting case of the restricted three-body problem, the
so-called Hill's lunar problem, a planar direct periodic orbit with a period of one synodic …

Studying network of symmetric periodic orbit families of the Hill problem via symplectic invariants

C Aydin, A Batkhin - arXiv preprint arXiv:2410.21245, 2024 - arxiv.org
In the framework of the spatial circular Hill three-body problem we illustrate the application of
symplectic invariants to analyze the network structure of symmetric periodic orbit families …

[PDF][PDF] A study of the Hill three-body problem by modern symplectic geometry.

C Aydin - 2023 - researchgate.net
The Hill three-body problem is a limiting case of the restricted three-body problem, which
was first proposed by Hill in 1878. His motivation was to describe the motion of the Moon-the …
