Managing resonant-trapped orbits in our Galaxy
Galaxy modelling is greatly simplified by assuming the existence of a global system of angleaction coordinates. Unfortunately, global angle-action coordinates do not exist because some orbits become trapped by resonances, especially where the radial and vertical frequencies coincide.We show that in...
