    A Relativistically invariant 2-body phase space integral

    I encounter a function that I don‘t know in the calculation of Relativistically invariant 2-body phase space integral: in this equation, ##s##is the square of total energy of the system in the center-of-mass frame(I think) I don't know what the function ##\lambda^{\frac{1}{2}}## is. There are...

    I Solving 2-Body Problem w/ Lagrangian: What Substitutions?

    Hi, I was trying to solve the classical two body problem with Lagrangian Principle. I replaced the angular velocity before taking the partial derivatives (which respect to the distance to the virtual particle) and the result was completely different. I would like to ask, therefore, which...

    I Planetary orbits - the 2-body problem

    Hi I am confused about certain aspects of deriving the planetary orbit equation by considering it as 2-body problem. I will ask my first question now before i get to my other questions. In the David Tong notes on "Dynamics & Relativity" he states that a particle in central force potential...

    2-body problem - conservation of angular momentum

    Hi With the 2-body problem relating to planetary orbits i have encountered the following ; the gravitational force on the reduced mass acts towards the large mass(Sun) and since it is a central force it exerts no torque about the fixed centre(Sun) so angular momentum is conserved. Conservation...

    B Capture in a 2-body system (not)

    I'm having a ... "discussion" on another forum about capture and ejection of bodies. My opponents believe that, for one example, the sun can capture an object that has entered the SS from outside its g-well (i.e. on a hyperbolic trajectory) - without requiring a third body to steal its energy...

    2-body scattering and Mandelstam Variables

    Homework Statement In a 2-body scattering event, A + B → C + D, it is convenient to introduce the Mandelstam variables, s ≡ −(PA + PB)2 , t ≡ −(PA − PC) 2 , u ≡ −(PA − PD) 2 , where PA,...,D are the 4-momenta of the particles A, . . . , D respectively, (· · ·) 2 = (· · ·) · (· · ·) denotes a...

    I Is a 2-body elliptical orbit stable in GR?

    I understand that in a 2-body system a circular orbit is gravitationally stable in General Relativity. In Newtonian dynamics, an elliptical orbit is also stable, but is this also true in GR? I understand that the orbit precesses, but I do not intend that to change my meaning regarding stability...

    Experiments to distinguish 3-body and 2-body decays?

    I was wondering are there any experiments to distinguish between 2 and 3-body decays? For example, consider decay of the muon and the pion: The pion only emits 1 muon neutrino ("missing energy") and 1 muon. The muon however, emits 1 muon neutrino, 1 electron neutrino and 1 electron. How is...

    What do P, p(subscript r), and L represent in the 2-Body Lagrangian problem?

    I have been looking at the problem of 2 point masses connected by a spring in polar coordinates. The problem is solved using the center of mass coordinate R and the relative coordinate r where M=total mass and m=reduced mass. The Euler-Lagrange equations then give equations for P(a vector) and...

    Central force to 2-body problem: which values?

    Hi, I'm new to this forum and I've got a question. In all articles I've found about the two body problem, they first start off by writing the distances between the masses as one function r(t) and one function R(t) (which is just simple the position of the reference frame). *note: i use initial...

    2-body central force ( gravity ) problem

    Homework Statement A comet is released from rest at a distance r_max from the sun. Therefore it has no angular momentum. We can assume the sun is a point mass ( i.e. sun's radius is zero ). How long does it take for the comet to hit the sun? Let m = comet mass let M_s = sun's mass...

    Status of relativistic 2-body problem

    I'd like to get back into theoretical physics as a retiree. I last worked on the relativistic 2-body problem over 25 years ago. I've been reading Trump and Schieve's text on classical relativistic dynamics and I'm wondering has the classical 2-body relativistic problem been solved. I realize...

    Calculating Orbital Velocities in a Binary Star System

    I just have a quick question about a binary star system consisting of 2 starts of unequal masses. Is the period of rotation of the 2 masses about their centre of mass equal? Do they both take the same amount of time to complete 1 revolution about the centre of mass?

    What causes the squiggly orbit and how can it be eliminated?

    Well, my biggest q, isn't exactly about the 2-body, it's more like 3-body I guess. What I'm trying to accomplish here is to say that we can not ignore a small third mass orbiting around a sun-like object. I have the Sun-Like Object and another object (L) orbiting around it, now L is...

    How Does an Inverse Cube Law Affect the 2-Body Problem?

    Hello, everyone. Here is my question and my thoughts on it: Suppose we lived in a bizarre world in which gravitation, instead of being an inverse square law, were an inverse cube law. (a) In this world, show that the 2-body problem can be brought to a central force problem in a plane P by...

    Calculating the Centre of Mass in a 2-Body System

    A little question: as a planet (such as jupiter) orbits the sun, both the planet, and the sun orbit the same point of the centre of mass. how do you calculate where that centre of mass is? (2 body problem only) thanks DH
