Abstract:Previous works on the divergence of first-order mean-motion resonances (MMRs) have studied in detail the extent of the pericentric and apocentric libration zones of adjacent first-order MMRs, highlighting possible bridges between them in the low-eccentricity circular restricted three-body problem. Here, we describe the previous results in the context of periodic orbits and show that the so-called circular family of periodic orbits is the path that can drive the passage between neighbouring resonances under dis… Show more
