Period-Multiplying Bifurcations in the Gravitational Field of Asteroids
Periodic orbit families around asteroids serve as potential trajectories for space probes, mining facilities, and deep space stations. Bifurcations of these families provide additional candidate orbits for efficient trajectory design around asteroids ...

AVAST Survey 0.4-1.0 {\mu}m Spectroscopy of Igneous Asteroids in the Inner and Middle Main Belt
We present the spectra of 60 asteroids, including 47 V-types observed during the first phase of the Adler V-Type Asteroid (AVAST) Survey. SDSS photometry was used to select candidate V-type asteroids for follow up by nature of their very blue $i-z$ color.

Research of resonant motion of Apollo asteroids with inner planets
We study the resonant motion of Apollo asteroids with inner planets (Venus, Earth, Mars). It is shown that 1760 among 2026 Apollo asteroids move in resonance with one, two or three inner planets.

At present, approximately 1500 asteroids are known to evolve inside or sticked to the exterior 1:2 resonance with Mars at a = 2.418 AU, being (142) Polana the largest member of this group.

Near-Earth Asteroids as Possible Parent Bodies of Meteor Streams [PDF]
The genetic relationship of meteor streams with near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) is being actively studied. A genetic link with the asteroid is possible only for streams in which meteoroids have the geocentric speed smaller than 50 km/s, thereby meaning the ...

Distribution of spin-axes longitudes and shape elongations of main-belt asteroids
Context: Large all-sky surveys provide us with a lot of photometric data that are sparse in time (typically few measurements per night) and can be potentially used for the determination of shapes and rotational states of asteroids.

Third derivatives of the integrable part of an asteroid Hamiltonian [PDF]
To apply the theorem of Nekhoroshev (1977) to asteroids, one first has to check whether a necessary geometrical condition is fulfilled: either convexity, or quasi-convexity, or only a 3-jet non-degeneracy.

Dynamics of Polar Resonances and Their Effects on Kozai–Lidov Mechanism
The research on highly inclined mean motion resonances (MMRs), even retrograde resonances, has drawn more attention in recent years. However, the dynamics of polar resonance with inclination i≈90∘ have received much less attention.
