Abstract

AbstractIn the present paper we analyse the motion of a massless particle during the capture process in an exterior mean-motion resonance under the effects of an external dissipative force. In particular, we study the orbital evolution from its initial approach to the commensurability up to the final nesting place in the periodic orbit around the equilibrium solution.
