Long-Term Stability of Planets in Binary Systems
- M. Holman, P. Wiegert
- Physics, Geology
- 1 September 1996
A simple question of celestial mechanics is investigated: in what regions of phase space near a binary system can planets persist for long times? The planets are taken to be test particles moving in…
The Evolution of Long-Period Comets
- P. Wiegert, S. Tremaine
- Physics, Geology
- 20 May 1997
We study the evolution of long-period comets by numerical integration of their orbits, a more realistic dynamical approach than the Monte Carlo and analytic methods previously used to study this…

Asteroid 2002 VE68, a quasi-satellite of Venus
- S. Mikkola, R. Brasser, P. Wiegert, K. Innanen
- Physics, Geology
- 1 July 2004
The asteroid 2002 VE68 is currently a quasi-satellite of Venus, the first object of this dynamical class to be discovered, and is also the first known co-orbital companion to Venus. Our computations…
The Stability of Planets in the Alpha Centauri System
- P. Wiegert, M. Holman
- Physics, Geology
- 16 September 1996
This paper investigates the long-term orbital stability of small bodies near the central binary of the Alpha Centauri system. Test particles on circular orbits are integrated in the field of this…
