The course starts with the formulation and resolution of the two-body problem. In this framework, we will apply these results to the dynamics of small bodies perturbed by stellar winds, introducting the idea of perturbations. We will then extend to a third body. We will develop further the notion of perturbations to look for approximate solutions to the three-body problem. Using averaging methods, we will study solutions over very long timescales (the so-called secular perturbations). We will also study mean-motion resonances.
The exam consists in the preparing the study of a research article linked to notions that we studied in the course, mostly concerninn secular and resonant perturbations.
