Souchay, Jean J.
Dvorak, Rudolf
This book offers an up-to-date overview of current research on Dynamics of Small Solar System Bodies and Exoplanets. In course-tested extensive chapters the authors cover topics of theoretical celestial mechanics, physics and dynamics of asteroids, comets, stability of exoplanets and numerical integration codes applied in dynamical astronomy. INDICE: Resonances: Models and Captures.- The Lyapounov Characteristic Exponents and Their computation.- Asteroid Families.- The Dynamics of the Troyan Asteroids.- The GAIA Mission: Expected Results for Asteroid Studies.- The Physics of Asteroids and Their Junction With Dynamics.- Comet Dynamics.- DyanmicalFeatures of the Oort Cloud Comets.- An Introduction to Common Numerical Integration Codes Used in Dynamical Astronomy.- Dynamic Stability of Extra-Solar Planets.
