A Dynamical Systems Approach to the Theory of Circumbinary Orbits in the Circular Restricted Problem

To better understand the orbital dynamics of exoplanets around close binary stars, i.e., circumbinary planets (CBPs), we applied techniques from dynamical systems theory to a physically motivated set of solutions in the Circular Restricted Three-Body Problem (CR3BP). We applied Floquet theory to cha...
