Abstract
The problem of equilibrium figures of two liquid masses in a state of tidal mutual capture is posed and solved. The condition of complete synchronous (orbital plus spin) rotation is satisfied in the system, and both bodies have the same masses and congruent ellipsoidal surfaces. For each figure, besides its own gravity and centrifugal forces, the attraction from the second body is taken into account in the tidal approximation. The spatial form of equilibrium figures as triaxial ellipsoids is found by an analytical and numerical method. The spin rotation of ellipsoidal equilibrium figures is established to occur not around small axes, as is usually assumed, but around the middle axes of the ellipsoids. This method is used to study the binary asteroid (190166) 2005 UP156, which approximately satisfies the initial conditions of the problem. The study showed that with the parameters known today, the system of two asteroids (190166) 2005 UP156 is nonequilibrium.
