Orbital resonances amongst planetary satellites
Description
Work devoted in the past 15 years to the construction of formal theories of the motion of resonant satellites is summed up. The importance of formal theories and fundamental concepts are also discussed. The kernels derived by Jefferys and Ries, Sessin and Hori for the construction of formal theories for mutually perturbing satellites are considered. Some recent results concerning the determinations of the parameters of libration of several systems as well as the accelerations of the Galilean satellites and of Mimas are also presented.
