Abstract

Let us consider a fixed electrical charge \(Q_1\) placed at the origin of the real line and a point particle with charge \(Q_2\) moving on \({\mathbb R}^+\) and subjected to an external \(T\)-periodic excitation \(h(t)\). The main objective of this chapter is to unveil the main dynamical aspects of this model.
