Solar Radiation Pressure Effects on Stability of Periodic Orbits in Restricted Four-Body Problem

In this work, the Hamiltonian of the four-body problem is considered under the effects of solar radiation pressure. The equations of motion of the infinitesimal body are obtained in the Hamiltonian canonical form. The libration points and the corresponding Jacobi constants are obtained with different values of the solar radiation pressure coefficient. The motion and its stability about each point are studied. A family of periodic orbits under the effects of the gravitational forces of the primaries and the solar radiation pressure are obtained depending on the pure numerical method. This purpose is applied to the Sun-Earth-Moon-Space craft system, and the results obtained are in a good agreement with the previous work such as (Kumari and Papadouris, 2013).

Periodic Orbits of the First Kind in the Autonomous Four-body Problem with the Case of Collision

In this manuscript, the existence of periodic orbits of collision of the first kind has been discussed on the model of Autonomous Four-body Problem by the method of analytic continuation given by Giacaglia [1] and Bhatnagar [2] [3]. For the existence of periodic orbits, Duboshin’s criterion [4] has been satisfied and it has been confirmed by analyzing the Poincare surfaces of section (PSS) [5]. Also it has been shown that the case of collision given by Levi-Civita [6] [7] is conserved by the method analytic continuation. In all sections of this manuscript, equilateral triangular configuration given by Ceccaroni and Biggs [8] has been considered. In this model, third primary of L4 inferior mass (in comparison of the other primaries) is placed at the equilibrium point of the R3BP.

Parametric stability analysis for planar bicircular restricted four-body problem

Stability for the notn-autonomous bicircular four-body model is analytically investigated in this study.The gowerning equation is derived from Newton's law of gravity.When the distance between the infnitesimal mass and the third primary is expanded as Taylor expansions,the governing equation can be regarded 3 two parts:the unperturbed conservative system and the small periodically parametric excitations.The unperturbed system's natural frequency and paramettic frequency are analyzed for the posibility of principal parametric resonances.The method of multiple scales is applied directly to the governing equation.The stability conditions are obtained analytically for the principal pararmetric resonance.Numerical method demonstrates the efflciency of the analytical results.

We study the four-body decays of neutral flavored mesons,including■,and■.These processes,which could be induced by a hypothetical doubly-charged scalar particle,do not conserve the lepton number.Assuming,as an example,that the mass of the doubly-charged particle is 1000 Ge V,and using the upper bounds of the couplings,we calculate the branching ratios of different channels.For■,and,it is of the order of 10^(-30),10^(-32)–10^(-29),and 10^(-33)–10^(-28),respectively.Based on the experimental results for the■channels,we also find the upper limit for the

Research on the phase space of three-and four-body final states processes

Analytical formulae for the phase space factors and three-momenta of three-and four-body final states are derived for all sets of independent kinematic variables containing invariant mass variables.These formulae will help experimental physicists to perform data analysis.As an example,we show how to use these formulae to distinguish the different mechanisms of the e+p→e+J/ψ+p process when searching the signals of P_(c) states in the energy region of the Electron-Ion collider at China(EicC).

Electron correlation in fast ion-impact single ionization of helium atoms

A four-body distorted-wave approximation is applied for theoretical analysis of the fully differential cross sections（FDCS） for proton-impact single ionization of helium atoms in their ground states. The nine-dimensional integrals for the partial amplitudes are analytically reduced to closed-form expressions or some one-dimensional integrals which can be easily calculated numerically. Calculations are performed in the scattering and perpendicular planes. The influence of the target static electron correlations on the process is investigated using a number of different bound-state wave functions for the ground state of the helium targets. An illustrative computation is performed for 75-ke V proton–helium collisions and the obtained results are compared with experimental data and other theoretical predictions. Although for small momentum transfers, the comparison shows a reasonable agreement with experiments in the scattering and perpendicular planes, some significant discrepancies are still present at large momentum transfers in these planes. However, our results are compatible and for some cases, better than those of the other sophisticated calculations.

Theoretical analysis on fully differential cross sections for C^(6+)impact ionization of helium

Fully differential cross sections （FDCS） are calculated within a four-body model for single ionization of helium by C6＋ impact at the incident energy of 100 MeV/a.u. （atomic unit）. The results are compared with experimental data and other theoretical predictions. It is shown that our results are in very good agreement with experiment for three small momentum transfers in the scattering plane; however, some significant discrepancies are still present at the largest momentum transfer in both the scattering plane and the perpendicular plane. In actuality, the problem has not been explained by the theory during the last decade. Accordingly, the contributions of different scattering amplitudes to FDCS are analyzed. It is found that for the largest momentum transfer the cross section arising from a destructive interference of the three amplitudes is much smaller than the experimental data. However, the cross section due to the constructive interference of two scattering amplitudes between projectile-ionized electron interaction and projectile-passive electron interaction almost approaches the experimental data.

Single ionization of helium atoms by energetic fully stripped carbon ions

A four-body distorted wave approximation is presented for theoretical investigations of the single ionization of groundstate helium atoms by fully stripped carbon ions at impact energies of 2 MeV/amu and 100 MeV/amu. The nine-dimensional integrals for the partial quantum-mechanical transition amplitudes of the specified reaction are reduced to some analytical expressions or one-dimensional integrals over real variables. Fully differential cross sections（FDCSs） are calculated and compared with their experimental values as well as the results obtained from other theories. Despite the simplicity and quickness of the proposed quadrature, the comparison shows that the obtained results are in reasonable agreement with the experiment and are compatible with those of other complicated theories.

Periodic Orbits of the First Kind in the CR4BP When the Second Primary Is a Triaxial Rigid Body

The present paper deals with the existence of periodic orbits in the Circular Restricted Four-Body Problem (CR4BP) in two-dimensional co-ordinate system when the second primary is a triaxial rigid body and the third primary of inferior mass (in comparison of the other primaries) is placed at triangular libration point L4 of the Circular Restricted Three-Body Problem (CR3BP). With the help of generating solutions, we formed a basis for the existence of periodic orbits, then an analytical approach given by Hassan et al. [1], was applied to our model of equilateral triangular configuration. It is found that in general solution also;the character of periodic orbits is conserved. For verification of the existence of periodic orbits, we have applied the criterion of Duboshin [2] and found satisfied.

Projectile angular-differential cross sections for single electron transfer in fast He^+-He collisions

The four-body Coulomb–Born distorted wave approximation is applied to investigate the integral as well as projectile angular-differential cross sections for single-electron capture in the collision of energetic singly positive charged helium ions with helium atoms in their ground states. The formalism satisfies the correct boundary conditions. The influence of the dynamic electron correlations on the cross sections is studied by considering the inter electronic interactions in the complete perturbation potentials in post form. Also, the sensitivity of the cross sections to the static electronic correlations is studied by using the single-zeta and the highly correlated Byron–Joachain wave functions to describe the initial bound state of the active electrons. The obtained results for the energy range of 40–5000 ke V/amu are reported and compared with other three- and four-body theoretical data and available experimental measurements. The comparison leads us to discuss the validity of the applied approach and survey the interaction effects on the cross sections by recognizing the electron–electron interaction. Particularly, for differential cross sections, the comparison of the present four-body method with the experiment shows that the agreement is not as good as that for its three-body version.
