MEAN MOTION AND SECULAR RESONANCES IN THE MOTION OF NEAR-EARTH ASTEROIDS

Abstract

The paper deals with mean motion and secular resonances in the near-Earth asteroids’ (NEA) dynamics. It is considered main resonance characteristics of mean motion and apsidal-nodal resonances, tech-nique of them determination is presented. We showed the mutual influence of resonances and close approaches on some asteroid motion examples. It is presented a brief review of recent studies of NEA dynamics near mean-motion and secular resonances.
