Abstract:
In this talk, I will survey recent advances in the classical (circular, restricted) three-body problem, from the perspective of symplectic geometry, and discuss applications to trajectory design. Based on joint work with several authors: Otto van Koert, Urs Frauenfelder, Dan Scheeres, Cengiz Aydin, Dayung Koh, Gavin Brown.
