A Mapping Model for the Coorbital Problem

  • Conference paper

Abstract

In this work we developed a symplectic mapping to study the phase space structure of the coorbital region in the restricted three-body problem (RTBP). This was constructed using the method suggested by Hadjidemetriou (1991), in which the averaged Hamiltonian is the generating function of the mapping. Although this mapping technique has been applied widely for several cases of different mean motion resonances, no application has ever been done for the 1: 1 resonance, which is the main feature of the coorbital dynamics. However, the 1: 1 resonance is an outstanding problem (see Érdi (1997) for a recent overview) and it deserves continuous attention.
