THE INFLUENCE OF LAPLACIAN CONSTRAINT OVER A MOTION LIKE THE THREE FIRST GALILEAN SATELLITES OF JUPITER

 Roberto Artur Cornetti SILVA[1]

§    ABSTRACT: The influence of Laplacian constraint studied by SILVA(1990) is taken into account over a motion like the three first Galilean Satellites of Jupiter. A better understanding about the variables associated with the Laplacian critical angle is now obtained for the model developed by SILVA (1986).

§    KEYWORDS: Laplacian resonance; Galilean Satellites of Jupiter.
