Rotational Dynamics of Janus and Epimetheus
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
We investigate simplified models of flat rotational motion of the coorbital satellites of Saturn, Janus and Epimetheus. We try to verify the hypothesis of chaotic rotation of the moons, caused by gravitational interaction between them. The possibility of parametric resonance in the librations of Janus is also investigated.
