Textbook on Planetary Dynamics


I am also writing a graduate-level textbook on planetary dynamics, to be published by Wiley, selected chapters provided below.

Sample chapters:

Table of contents (only 2 more chapters to write and then done!)

Chapter 1 is a review of classical mechanics.

Chapter 6 is on the motion of a body orbiting at a mean-motion aka Lindblad resonance.

Chapter 11 is on the viscous evolution of a circumstellar disk.

Chapter 12 is on spiral density wave theory.
