We survey the methods proposed in the literature for detecting moons of extrasolar planets in terms of their ability to distinguish between prograde and retrograde moon orbits, an important tracer of moon formation channel. We find that most moon detection methods, in particular, sensitive methods ...

Planets rotate by spinning on their axes. Earth's rotation gives us nights and days. Revolution, on the other hand, refers to the movement of the planets around the Sun. The planets revolve around the Sun while rotating on their respective axes.Answer and Explanation: ...
it should be understood that the specific angles selected for the prograde and retrograde orbits can be varied between about 30° to 70° and 110° to 150° respectively within the scope of the invention. The constellation can include a plurality of satellites equally spaced in each of the orb...
In extending the analysis of the four secular resonances between close orbits in Li and Christou (Celest Mech Dyn Astron 125:133-160, 2016) (Paper I), we generalise the semianalytical model so that it applies to both prograde and retrograde orbits with a one-to-one map between the ...
Our expression properly takes into account possible rotation of the satellite. We verified our predictions against simulations and obtained satisfactory agreement.Grzegorz GajdaEwa L. LokasInternational Astronomical Union., Symposium
Let T > 0 and be fixed, and consider the rotating frame which rotates the inertia frame about the origin with angular velocity . In a recent work of K.-C.Chen [5], the existence of action-minimizing retrograde orbits which are T-periodic on this rotation frame were proved to exist for...
In particular, we investigate the inclination and the shape (eccentricity) of these orbits. We show the importance of the higher-order terms in changing the inversion times of the flip, i.e., the times where the inclination of the inner planet flips from prograde to retrograde trajectories. ...
