� Hill’s Realm
I Energy integral: E(x, y, x, y) = (x2 + y2)/2 + U(x, y).
I E can be used to determine (Hill’s ) realm in position spacewhere SC is energetically permitted to move.
I Effective potential: U(x, y) = −x2+y2

� Hill’s Realm
I To fix energy value E is to fix height of plot of U(x, y).Contour plots give 5 cases of Hill’s realm.

I Asymptotic orbits form 2D invariant manifold tubesin 3D energy surface.
I They separate transit and non-transit orbits:

•Non-transit orbits are those outside the tubes.

� Existence of Transitional Orbits
I Main Theorem: For any admissible itinerary,e.g., (. . . ,X,J;S,J,X, . . .), there exists an orbit whosewhereabouts matches this itinerary.
I Can even specify number of revolutions the comet makesaround Sun & Jupiter (plus L1 & L2).
I 3-Body trajectories much richer than 2-body trajectories.

� Look for Natural Pathways to Bridge the Gap
I Tubes of two 3-body systems may not intersect for awhile.May need large ∆V to “jump” from one tube to another.
I Look for natural pathways to bridge the gap
• between z0 where tube of one system (Ganymede) entersand z2 where tube of another system exits (into Europa realm)by “hopping” through phase space (z1).

� Transport between Regions via Lobe Dynamics
I Segments of unstable and stable manifoldsform partial barriers between regions R1 and R2.
I L1,2(1), L2,1(1) are lobes; they form a turnstile.
• In one iteration, only points from R1 to R2 are in L1,2(1)
• only points from R2 to R1 are in L2,1(1).
I By studying pre-images of L1,2(1),one can find efficient way from R1 to R2.
