The continuation of triple collision orbits for the three-body system with unequal masses
The triple collision represents a fundamental singularity in the equations of motion for the three-body problem. Building upon previously identified triple collision orbits with equal masses, we employ the Clean Numerical Simulation (CNS) and the numerical continuation method to compute triple collision orbits for the free-fall three-body system with unequal masses. We first identify triple collision orbits for the three-body system where two bodies have unit mass, while the third body has various masses. Additionally, we extend our computation to obtain the triple collision orbits for the three-body problem with different masses. Numerical evidence is presented to demonstrate the asymptotic behavior of triple collision orbits with unequal masses. Our findings have potential inspiration for the study of the dynamical characteristic around the singularity of three-body systems.
期刊介绍:
Astrophysics and Space Science publishes original contributions and invited reviews covering the entire range of astronomy, astrophysics, astrophysical cosmology, planetary and space science and the astrophysical aspects of astrobiology. This includes both observational and theoretical research, the techniques of astronomical instrumentation and data analysis and astronomical space instrumentation. We particularly welcome papers in the general fields of high-energy astrophysics, astrophysical and astrochemical studies of the interstellar medium including star formation, planetary astrophysics, the formation and evolution of galaxies and the evolution of large scale structure in the Universe. Papers in mathematical physics or in general relativity which do not establish clear astrophysical applications will no longer be considered.
The journal also publishes topically selected special issues in research fields of particular scientific interest. These consist of both invited reviews and original research papers. Conference proceedings will not be considered. All papers published in the journal are subject to thorough and strict peer-reviewing.
Astrophysics and Space Science features short publication times after acceptance and colour printing free of charge.
