James Croll, celestial mechanics and climate change
James Croll was a pioneer in studies of the impact of the slowly changing orbital dynamics of the Earth on climate change. His book Climate and Time in their Geological Relations (1875) was far ahead of its time in seeking correlations between climate ...

Satellite orbit under influence of a drag - analytical approach [PDF]
The report studies some changes in orbital elements of the artificial satellites of Earth under influence of atmospheric drag. In order to develop possibilities of applying the results in many future cases, an analytical interpretation of the ...

Five new methods of celestial mechanics
The last volume of the book “Les méthods nouvelles de la mécanique céleste” by Poincaré [28] was published more than 120 years ago. Since then, the following methods have arisen. 1.

Hyperbolic normal forms and invariant manifolds: Astronomical applications [PDF]
In recent years, the study of the dynamics induced by the invariant manifolds of unstable periodic orbits in nonlinear Hamiltonian dynamical systems has led to a number of applications in celestial mechanics and dynamical astronomy.

DYNAMICAL EVOLUTION NEAR-PARABOLIC COMETS TO HALLEY-TYPE ORBITS
The capture of comet from the near parabolic flux of the Oort cloud to Halley-type orbits (P < 200 yr, perihelion distanses q < 1,5 AU, and Tisserand parametr T < 2) is investigated Two types of capture into Halley-type orbits are found.

Celestial mechanics and polarization optics of the Kordylewski dust cloud in the Earth–Moon Lagrange point L5 – I. Three-dimensional celestial mechanical modelling of dust cloud formation [PDF]
Since the discovery in 1772 of the triangular Lagrange points L4 and L5 in the gravitational field of two bodies moving under the sole influence of mutual gravitational forces, astronomers found a large number of minor celestial bodies around these ...

Symmetries in central-force problems [PDF]
The two-body problem in central fields (reducible to a central-force problem) models a lot of concrete astronomical situations. The corresponding vector fields (in Cartesian and polar coordinates, extended via collision-blow-up and infinity-blow-up ...
