Study of the Influence of Some NEA Orbit Elements on Sizes of Chaotic Zones of Resonances with the Earth and Jupiter

详细

Results of investigation of regular and chaotic motions of near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) in the vicinity of the 1:2 mean motion resonance with the Earth and 2:1 mean motion resonance with Jupiter are discussed in the present work. The resonant zones, constructed from the set of initial values of the semimajor axis and the mean anomaly at some fixed values of other orbital elements, are numerically simulated. By means of the MEGNO parameter, the vicinities of the boundaries of these zones are investigated. Chaotic zones are represented graphically, and the widths of these zones are numerically estimated. The behavior of the resonant and chaotic zones is demonstrated for different values of the eccentricity and inclination.
