High-eccentricity asteroidal librations are modelled using the high-eccentricity non-planar asymmetric expansion (Roig et al 1997). This second-degree expansion gives us the potential of the perturbing forces acting on a resonant asteroid in a first order resonance in explicit form, as a quadratic polynomial in the canonical non-singular variables. Secular and short periodic perturbations are introduced in the model, giving a more realistic description of the dynamics.

The reducing Sessin’s transformation (Sessin, 1981; Sessin & Ferraz-Mello, 1984) is used to include the main effect of Jupiter’s ecc entricity in the main part of the Hamiltonian. It leads to an integrable first-order approximation known as the second fundamental model for resonance (Henrard & Lemaitre 1983) or Andoyer Hamiltonian (Andoyer 1903).
