Abstract
Asteroid 216-Kleopatra presents a ham-bone shape, that is to say, it is quite elongated body with two protuberances on its end-points, which makes of it the perfect candidate to model its shape and mass distribution by a Dipole-Segment, consisting on a massive segment with two spherical masses at the end-points of the rod and that is rotating about its center of mass with uniform velocity. Once obtained an approximation of the actual values of the involved parameters from recent results of Burov and coworkers, we obtain the complete map of families of symmetric periodic orbits, and describe the orbits of the different families, its parametric evolution, stability and also we compute the heteroclinic orbits connecting unstable isosceles equilibria.
期刊介绍:
The COSPAR publication Advances in Space Research (ASR) is an open journal covering all areas of space research including: space studies of the Earth''s surface, meteorology, climate, the Earth-Moon system, planets and small bodies of the solar system, upper atmospheres, ionospheres and magnetospheres of the Earth and planets including reference atmospheres, space plasmas in the solar system, astrophysics from space, materials sciences in space, fundamental physics in space, space debris, space weather, Earth observations of space phenomena, etc.
NB: Please note that manuscripts related to life sciences as related to space are no more accepted for submission to Advances in Space Research. Such manuscripts should now be submitted to the new COSPAR Journal Life Sciences in Space Research (LSSR).
All submissions are reviewed by two scientists in the field. COSPAR is an interdisciplinary scientific organization concerned with the progress of space research on an international scale. Operating under the rules of ICSU, COSPAR ignores political considerations and considers all questions solely from the scientific viewpoint.
