Mapping, Dissipative Forces

Scientific paper

We present a method to construct a mapping for perturbed systems, in which the perturbations do not need to be conservative. We use a variation of Wisdom and Holman's method, where the dissipative term is placed together with the other perturbative terms. The method is applied for two dissipative systems: one including gas drag and the other including Poynting-Robertson drag. We compare the results with those obtained by Malhotra's mapping. Because the dissipative part in our method is treated as a regular perturbative term, there is no need for analytical developments of the nonconservative terms. This is a great advantage in itself and this also allows for a fast performance of the integrator.
