Title in Portuguese
Aspectos dinâmicos de um potencial gravitacional com termo de quadrupolo
Keywords in Portuguese
Esferoide oblato
Órbita homoclínica
Potencial com momento quadrupolo
Abstract in Portuguese
Este trabalho é dividido em duas partes. No primeiro capítulo, calculamos o potencial gravitacional com termo de quadrupolo gerado por um esferoide oblato homogêneo e, em seguida, estudamos a dinâmica de uma partícula pontual orbitando tal objeto. Usando coordenadas cilíndricas, reduzimos o problema a um sistema hamiltoniano com dois graus de liberdade, cujas soluções analisamos por integração numérica para identificar aspectos qualitativos pertinentes. No segundo capítulo, aproveitamos o fato de que o referido sistema hamiltoniano possui um equilíbrio estável e outro do tipo centro-sela, assim como, no plano equatorial, uma órbita homoclínica ao último, e investigamos o comportamento das soluções próximas a esta.
Title in English
Dynamical aspects of a gravitational potential with a quadrupole term
Keywords in English
Homoclinic orbit
Oblate spheroid
Potential with quadrupole term
Abstract in English
This work is divided into two parts. In the first chapter, we calculate the gravitational potential with a quadrupole term generated by a homogeneous oblate spheroid and, in the sequel, study the dynamics of a point particle orbiting such an object. Using cyllindrical coordinates, we reduce the problem to a hamiltonian system with two degrees of freedom, whose solutions we analyze by numerical integration in order to identify pertinent qualitative aspects. In the second chapter, we take advantage of the fact that the same hamiltonian system has a stable equilibrium plus an equilibrium of saddle-center type, as well as an orbit homoclinic to the latter, and we investigate the behaviour of the solutions close to it.
