The paper deals with the stability of the solutions of Sitnikov's restricted problem of three bodies if the primaries are triaxial rigid bodies. The infinitesimal mass is moving in space and is being influenced by motion of two primaries (m1>m2). They move in circular orbits without rotation around their centre of mass. Both primaries are considered as axis symmetric bodies with one of the axes as axis of symmetry whose equatorial plane coincides with motion of the plane. The synodic system of co-ordinates initially coincides with inertial system of co-ordinates. It is also supposed that initially the principal axis of the body m1 is parallel to synodic axis and are of the axes of symmetry is perpendicular to plane of motion.Journal of Institute of Science and Technology, 2014, 19(2): 76-78

In this paper the joint effect of source of radiation and triaxial rigid body has been studied. The energy of Sitnikov's restricted three body problem when primaries are sources of radiation and energy of Sitnikov's restricted problem of three bodies when primaries are triaxial rigid bodies have been studied to calculate the joint effect. Equation of motion of the third body of infitesimal mass, if primaries are sources of radiation and triaxial rigid bodies,  are calculated.    DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/bibechana.v12i0.11707BIBECHANA 12 (2015) 53-58

The paper presents a summary of the results obtained by C. J. Cohen and E. C. Hubbard, who established by numerical integration that a resonance relation exists between the orbits of Neptune and Pluto. The problem may be explored further by approximating the motion of Pluto by that of a particle with negligible mass in the three-dimensional (circular) restricted problem. The mass of Pluto and the eccentricity of Neptune's orbit are ignored in this approximation. Significant features of the problem appear to be the presence of two critical arguments and the possibility that the orbit may be related to a periodic orbit of the third kind.

An analytical discussion of that case of motion in the restricted problem, in which the mean motions of the infinitesimal, and smaller-massed, bodies about the larger one are nearly in the ratio of two small integers displays the existence of a series of periodic solutions which, for commensurabilities of the typep+ 1:p, includes solutions of Poincaré'sdeuxième sortewhen the commensurability is very close, and of thepremière sortewhen it is less close. A linear treatment of the long-period variations of the elements, valid for motions in which the elements remain close to a particular periodic solution of this type, shows the continuity of near-commensurable motion with other motion, and some of the properties of long-period librations of small amplitude.To extend the investigation to other types of motion near commensurability, numerical integrations of the equations for the long-period variations of the elements were carried out for the 2:1 interior case (of which the planet 108 “Hecuba” is an example) to survey those motions in which the eccentricity takes values less than 0·1. An investigation of the effect of the large amplitude perturbations near commensurability on a distribution of minor planets, which is originally uniform over mean motion, shows a “draining off” effect from the vicinity of exact commensurability of a magnitude large enough to account for the observed gap in the distribution at the 2:1 commensurability.
