The Chinese Dream: A Society Under Construction
Relocating public buildings (of which there are over 400 in Beijing) to the
pericenter will have two major impacts. Firstly, as trips related to official business
account for a large proportion of single to low occupancy vehicles, the move will
pull a ...

Chaos in Astronomy: Conference 2007
The behavior of ξ during the second and subsequent pericenter passages, until a
merger is complete, is very sensitive to the phase of the oscillations of the dwarf
at the times of those pericenter passages. That sensitivity is illustrated in Fig.3 ...

Gravitation and Inertia
However. in the next section we review a famous classical test of general
relativity: the precession of the perihelion of Mercury and. in generaL the
precession of the pericenter of an orbiting test particle and its relativistic
dynamics. At the end of ...
Ignazio Ciufolini, John Archibald Wheeler, 1995
At this point, self-gravity creates a positive eccentricity gradient across the ring,
which then forces the pinch to move towards pericenter. In equilibrium, collisions
at pericenter maintain the state of uniform precession, with zero apsidal shift, and
...

The Dynamics of Satellite and Dark Matter Halo Interactions ...
Due to this additional decay effect, the satellite happens to be located at its
pericenter and produces a stalling the decay. This argument is clearly
demonstrated in Figure 1.16. The top left panel shows the decaying of satellite's
orbit, pericenter, ...

Transiting Planets (IAU S253)
The difficulty is to achieve such a small pericenter distance during the Kozai
cycles that the tidal dissipation significantly drains the orbital energy from the
planet. Thus these dynamical models require very large initial relative inclination
angles, ...

Mechanics: From Newton's Laws to Deterministic Chaos
(A.7) As φ(rA )−φ(rP) = π, one confirms that the pericenter, force center, and
apocen- ter lie on a straight line. Two succeeding pericenter constellations have
azimuths differing by 2π, i.e. they coincide. There is no precession of the
pericenter.

Periodic, Quasi-Periodic and Chaotic Motions in Celestial ...
This value of K of the equilibrium can be slightly changed by introducing a
constant precession rate for the node (ho) and for the pericenter (go). The
variation is of the order of 1.6 Arcmin, using the present orbit of Mercury. This
value coincides ...

The Measurement of Gravitomagnetism: A Challenging Enterprise
The relation (7.50) determines the period with respect to the line joining the
central body with the pericenter. For an inertial observer, this line is not fixed but
preeesses both due to the pericenter motion and the motion of the orbital plane, ...
