Scientific paper

A largely neglected secular perturbation that changes the effective mean motion is noted to occur on the osculating longitude at epoch, due to periodic close encounters between arc particles of Neptune and Galatea. This perturbation is here examined both analytically and numerically. It is shown that the confinement mechanism, based on single-satellite shepherding by Galatea, remains in force at the new position of the arc-confining resonances.
