(Abridged) We have numerically explored the stable planetary geometry for the multiple systems involved in a 2:1 mean motion resonance, and herein we mainly concentrate on the study of the HD 82943 system by employing two sets of the orbital parameters (Mayor et al. 2004). We find that all stable orbits are related to the 2:1 commensurability for $10^{7}$ yr, and the apsidal phase-locking between two orbits can further enhance the stability for this system. For HD 82943, there exist three possible stable configurations:(1) Type I, only $theta_{1} approx 0^{circ}$,(2) Type II, $theta_{1}approxtheta_{2}approxtheta_{3}approx 0^{circ}$ (aligned case), and (3) Type III, $theta_{1}approx 180^{circ}$, $theta_{2}approx0^{circ}$, $theta_{3}approx180^{circ}$ (antialigned case), here the lowest eccentricity-type mean motion resonant arguments are $theta_{1} = lambda_{1} - 2lambda_{2} + varpi_{1}$ and $theta_{2} = lambda_{1} - 2lambda_{2} + varpi_{2}$, the relative apsidal longitudes $theta_{3} = varpi_{1}-varpi_{2}=Deltavarpi$. In addition, we also propose a semi-analytical model to study $e_{i}-Deltavarpi$ Hamiltonian contours. With the updated fit, we examine the dependence of the stability of this system on the orbital parameters. Moreover, we numerically show that the assumed terrestrial bodies cannot survive near the habitable zones for HD 82943 and low-mass planets can be dynamically habitable in the GJ 876 system at $sim 1$ AU in the numerical surveys.

We integrate the orbital solutions of the planets orbiting 55 Cnc. In the simulations, we find that not only three resonant arguments $theta_{1}=lambda_{1}-3lambda_{2}+2tildeomega_{1}$, $theta_{2}=lambda_{1}-3lambda_{2}+2tildeomega_{2}$ and $theta_{3}=lambda_{1}-3lambda_{2}+(tildeomega_{1}+tildeomega_{2})$ librate respectively, but the relative apsidal longitudes $Deltaomega$ also librates about $250^{circ}$ for millions of years. The results imply the existence of the 3:1 resonance and the apsidal resonance for the studied system. We emphasize that the mean motion resonance and apsidal locking can act as two important mechanisms of stabilizing the system. In addition, we further investigate the secular dynamics of this system by comparing the numerical results with those given by Laplace-Lagrange secular theory.
Asteroids in mean motion resonances with giant planets are common in the solar system, but it was not until recently that several asteroids in retrograde mean motion resonances with Jupiter and Saturn were discovered. A retrograde co-orbital asteroid of Jupiter, 2015 BZ509 is confirmed to be in a long-term stable retrograde 1:1 mean motion resonance with Jupiter, which gives rise to our interests in its unique resonant dynamics. In this paper, we investigate the phase-space structure of the retrograde 1:1 resonance in detail within the framework of the circular restricted three-body problem. We construct a simple integrable approximation for the planar retrograde resonance using canonical contact transformation and numerically employ the averaging procedure in closed form. The phase portrait of the retrograde 1:1 resonance is depicted with the level curves of the averaged Hamiltonian. We thoroughly analyze all possible librations in the co-orbital region and uncover a new apocentric libration for the retrograde 1:1 resonance inside the planets orbit. We also observe the significant jumps in orbital elements for outer and inner apocentric librations, which are caused by close encounters with the perturber.
We study the capture and crossing probabilities into the 3:1 mean motion resonance with Jupiter for a small asteroid that migrates from the inner to the middle Main Belt under the action of the Yarkovsky effect. We use an algebraic mapping of the averaged planar restricted three-body problem based on the symplectic mapping of Hadjidemetriou (1993), adding the secular variations of the orbit of Jupiter and non-symplectic terms to simulate the migration. We found that, for fast migration rates, the captures occur at discrete windows of initial eccentricities whose specific locations depend on the initial resonant angles, indicating that the capture phenomenon is not probabilistic. For slow migration rates, these windows become narrower and start to accumulate at low eccentricities, generating a region of mutual overlap where the capture probability tends to 100%, in agreement with the theoretical predictions for the adiabatic regime. Our simulations allow to predict the capture probabilities in both the adiabatic and non-adiabatic cases, in good agreement with results of Gomes (1995) and Quillen (2006). We apply our model to the case of the Vesta asteroid family in the same context as Roig et al. (2008), and found results indicating that the high capture probability of Vesta family members into the 3:1 mean motion resonance is basically governed by the eccentricity of Jupiter and its secular variations.
We present an analysis of the HD 82943 planetary system based on a radial velocity data set that combines new measurements obtained with the Keck telescope and the CORALIE measurements published in graphical form. We examine simultaneously the goodness of fit and the dynamical properties of the best-fit double-Keplerian model as a function of the poorly constrained eccentricity and argument of periapse of the outer planets orbit. The fit with the minimum chi_{nu}^2 is dynamically unstable if the orbits are assumed to be coplanar. However, the minimum is relatively shallow, and there is a wide range of fits outside the minimum with reasonable chi_{nu}^2. For an assumed coplanar inclination i = 30 deg. (sin i = 0.5), only good fits with both of the lowest order, eccentricity-type mean-motion resonance variables at the 2:1 commensurability, theta_1 and theta_2, librating about 0 deg. are stable. For sin i = 1, there are also some good fits with only theta_1 (involving the inner planets periapse longitude) librating that are stable for at least 10^8 years. The libration semiamplitudes are about 6 deg. for theta_1 and 10 deg. for theta_2 for the stable good fit with the smallest libration amplitudes of both theta_1 and theta_2. We do not find any good fits that are non-resonant and stable. Thus the two planets in the HD 82943 system are almost certainly in 2:1 mean-motion resonance, with at least theta_1 librating, and the observations may even be consistent with small-amplitude librations of both theta_1 and theta_2.
The paper analyses possible transfers of bodies from the main asteroid belt (MBA) to the Centaur region. The orbits of asteroids in the 2:1 mean motion resonance (MMR) with Jupiter are analysed. We selected the asteroids that are in resonant orbits with e > 0.3 whose absolute magnitudes H do not exceed 16m. The total number of the orbits amounts to 152. Numerical calculations were performed to evaluate the evolution of the orbits over 100,000-year time interval with projects for the future. Six bodies are found to have moved from the 2:1 commensurability zone to the Centaur population. The transfer time of these bodies to the Centaur zone ranges from 4,600 to 70,000 yr. Such transfers occur after orbits leave the resonance and the bodies approach Jupiter. Where after reaching sufficient orbital eccentricities bodies approach a terrestrial planet, their orbits go out of the MMR. Accuracy estimations are carried out to confirm the possible asteroid transfers to the Centaur region.
