Scientific paper

The approach and methods introduced by McGill & Binney and Kaasalainen & Binney (Papers I and III), for the construction of phase-space tori that are approximate invariant tori of a given Hamiltonian, are generalized to include motion `trapped' around general closed orbits. This is accomplished by introducing point transformations that map the configuration space around a closed orbit in the target potential to one in a toy potential for which action-angle coordinates are known. This approach opens up the possibility of constructing tori for an arbitrary orbit family. The method is illustrated by applying it to the `banana' and `fish' minor-orbit families in the planar logarithmic potential.
