�Current research importance
� Development of some NASA mission trajectories, suchas the recently launched Genesis Discovery Mission,and the upcoming Europa Orbiter Mission
� Of current astrophysical interest for understandingthe transport of solar system material (eg, how ejectafrom Mars gets to Earth, etc.)
2
Genesis Discovery Mission� Genesis will collect solar wind samples at the Sun-Earth
L1 and return them to Earth.
� It was the first mission designed start to finish usingdynamical systems theory.

Three-Body Problem
�Circular restricted 3-body problem
� the two primary bodies move in circles; the muchsmaller third body moves in the gravitational field ofthe primaries, without affecting them

Three-Body Problem
�Circular restricted 3-body problem
� the two primary bodies move in circles; the muchsmaller third body moves in the gravitational field ofthe primaries, without affecting them
� the two primaries could be the Sun and Earth, theEarth and Moon, or Jupiter and Europa, etc.
� the smaller body could be a spacecraft or asteroid

� the two primaries could be the Sun and Earth, theEarth and Moon, or Jupiter and Europa, etc.
� the smaller body could be a spacecraft or asteroid
� we consider the planar and spatial problems
� there are five equilibrium points in the rotating frame,places of balance which generate interesting dynamics

Three-Body Problem• 3 unstable points on line joining two main bodies – L1, L2, L3
• 2 stable points at ±60◦ along the circular orbit – L4, L5

Three-Body Problem� orbits exist around L1 and L2; both periodic and quasi-
periodic
• Lyapunov, halo and Lissajous orbits
� one can draw the invariant manifolds assoicated to L1
(and L2) and the orbits surrounding them
� these invariant manifolds play a key role in what follows

� Energy manifolds are 3-dimensional surfaces foliatingthe 4-dimensional phase space.
� This is for the planar problem, but the spatial problemis similar.

Regions of Possible Motion
�Effective potential
� In a rotating frame, the equations of motion describea particle moving in an effective potential plus a mag-netic field (goes back to work of Jacobi, Hill, etc).

Transport Between Regions• These manifold tubes play an important role in governing what
orbits approach or depart from a moon (transit orbits)
• and orbits which do not (non-transit orbits)
• transit possible for objects “inside” the tube, otherwise notransit — this is important for transport issues

Construction of Trajectories� One can systematically construct new trajectories, which
use little fuel.
• by linking stable and unstable manifold tubes in the right order
• and using Poincare sections to find trajectories “inside” thetubes
� One can construct trajectories involving multiple 3-bodysystems.
17
Construction of Trajectories• For a single 3-body system, we wish to link invariant manifold
tubes to construct an orbit with a desired itinerary

Construction of Trajectories• Spatial: Invariant manifold tubes (S3 × I)
• Poincare cut is a topological 3-sphere S3 in R4.
◦ S3 looks like disk × disk: ξ2 + ξ2 + η2 + η2 = r2 = r2ξ + r2

• If z = c, z = 0, its projection on (y, y) plane is a curve.
• For unstable manifold: any point inside this curve is a (X ; M)orbit.

Construction of Trajectories• Similarly, while the cut of the stable manifold tube is S3, its
projection on (y, y) plane is a curve for z = c, z = 0.
• Any point inside this curve is a (M, I) orbit.
• Hence, any point inside the intersection region ∆M is a(X ; M, I) orbit.
