Editorial for the Special Issue “Relativistic Astrophysics”
Universe, 2022 Relativistic Astrophysics is the branch of astrophysics that studies astronomical phenomena and celestial bodies, for which classical mechanics and Newton’s law of gravitation are inapplicable to creation of suitable models and we have to generalize ...

Tying celestial mechanics to Earth’s ice ages
Physics today, 2020 Gradual falls and sharp rises in temperature for millions of years have profoundly affected living conditions on the planet and, consequently, our own evolution.

Ephemerides and Celestial Mechanics [PDF]
Highlights of Astronomy, 1986 When solving some abstract problems in mechanics related to the dynamics of bodies and systems, the notion of an inertial frame of reference is introduced in an apparently clear and natural way by simply drawing its coordinate axes and then paying no further attention to the system of reference which is then taken for granted.

Applications of KS - variables in celestial mechanics
Bibechana, 2010 This paper deals with the transformation of KS-Variables and canonically conjugate variables from sideral (inertial) to synodic (rotating) form and their applications in "the circular restricted problem of three bodies in three-dimensional coordinate ...

The proximities of asteroids and critical points of the distance function [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2010 The proximities are important for different purposes, for example to evaluate the risk of collisions of asteroids or comets with the Solar-System planets.

Open Astronomy, 2015 A new approach to determining the solar galactocentric distance, R0, from the geometry of spiral-arm segments is proposed. Geometric aspects of the problem are analyzed and a simplified three-point method for estimating R0 from objects in a spiral ...

The Relative Inertiality - The Relative Mechanical Movement of Bodies in Outer Space [PDF]
INCAS BulletinEven though classical mechanics states that it is not possible to find an inertial reference frame, relative measurements are used to determine the mechanical behaviour of celestial bodies with very small dimensions compared to the distances between them.

On the Proper Treatment of Dynamics in Cognitive Science
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract This essay examines the relevance of dynamical ideas for cognitive science. On its own, the mere mathematical idea of a dynamical system is too weak to serve as a scientific theory of anything, and dynamical approaches within cognitive science are too rich and varied to be subsumed under a single “dynamical hypothesis.” Instead, after first ...

Gamification in studying celestial mechanics using Kerbal Space Program
Авіаційно-космічна техніка та технологіяThe rapid development of technologies and their implementation in the educational process provide an opportunity to apply gamification, that is, the use of game mechanics and elements for in-depth study of a complex technical discipline.
