Resumo
A compreensão do universo é um dos grandes desejos da humanidade desde o princípio, e o estudo do movimento dos corpos celestes é uma parte deste todo. Dentro deste contexto está nosso trabalho, que tem como meta o estudo da dinâmica de asteróides múltiplos do nosso sistema solar, sendo este composto pelo movimento de translação dos asteróides satélites (asteróides menores que orbitam um de maior porte) e o movimento de atitude do asteróide central (asteróide de maior porte). O estudo dos asteróides múltiplos é uma grande chave para o conhecimento do passado de nosso sistema solar, visto que os mesmos são remanescentes da formação dos planetas. Partindo dessa motivação, realizamos um trabalho sobre a dinâmica do sistema (87) Sylvia no qual estudamos por meio de simulações numéricas a dinâmica dos satélites de Sylvia perturbados por Sol e Júpiter (Winter et al, 2009). Neste estudo foi mostrado que Rômulo e Remo sofrem fortes perturbações seculares provenientes de Sol e Júpiter, que poderiam desestabilizá-los. Descobrimos também que o achatamento (J2) do corpo central é de extrema importância na estabilidade dos satélites. Partindo desse resultado, para este trabalho, decidimos fazer uma análise mais minuciosa do problema em questão. Para isso, nós realizamos simulações considerando o movimento de atitude do asteróide central, algo até agora não considerado por nós. Este movimento de atitude é perturbado pelos torques causados por seus satélites, Sol e planetas. Apresentaremos neste trabalho uma sucinta abordagem teórica de nosso modelo juntamente com uma revisão bibliográfica de alguns modelos analítico aproximados encontrados na literatura, alguns testes de nossa ferramenta computacional e um estudo de dois sistemas triplos de asteróides conhecidos. Os sistemas estudados foram (87) Sylvia e (45) Eugenia. Os resultados nos mostrou que...
The understanding of the universe is one of the greats desires of humanity since the beginning, and the study of movement of celestial bodies is a part of it. Inside this context lies our work, which has as goal the study of the dynamics of multiple asteroids from our solar system, being this one compound of the movement of translation of the satellite asteroids (smaller asteroids which orbit one of larger size) and the movement of attitude of the central asteroid (largest size asteroid). The study of multiple asteroids is a great key for knowledge of our solar system past, since they are remaining objects of the formation of planets. Starting from that motivation, we developed a work about the dynamics of the system (87) Sylvia, in which we studied through numerical simulations the dynamics of Sylvia’s satellites perturbed by Sun and Jupiter (Winter et al, 2009). In this study, it has been shown that Romulus and Remus experience strong secular perturbations from Sun and Jupiter, which could destabilize them. We also found out that the flatness (J2) of the central body is of extreme importance in the stability of the satellites. Based on this result, for this work, we decided to do a closer analysis of the problem concerned. To do so, we developed simulations considering the movement of attitude of the central asteroid, which, so far, has not been considered by us. This movement of attitude is perturbed by torques caused by their satellites, Sun and planets. We will present in this work a brief theoretical approach of our model along with a bibliographic review of some approximate analytical models found in the literature, some tests of our computational tool and a study of two familiar triple systems of asteroids. The studied systems was (87) Sylvia and (45) Eugenia. The results has shown us that the movement of attitude of the central body experience great perturbation due to the Sun...
