THE INFLUENCE OF THE LAPLACIAN COMMENSURABILITY OVER A MOTION LIKE THE THREE FIRST GALILEAN SATELLITES OF JUPITER
Roberto Artur Cornetti SILVA[1]
§
ABSTRACT: This paper identifies a
constraint between the variables associated with the Laplacian critical angle
in the model developed by SILVA (1986). This constraint justifies why the
solution of the Hori’s auxiliary system (SILVA, 1986) does not give a better
understanding about these variables.

KEYWORDS: Laplacian resonance;
