Abstract

For a binary star system with equal masses the transition from regular

to stochastic motion has been determined by means of the Lyapunov

Characteristic Numbers (LCN) in a paper of Gonczi and Froeschle (1981),

where the initial distance of the massless body to the second primary

was used as parameter of integration. This time we analyse the Fourier

spectra of the local LCNs (alphaik of this system

for different intervals of time.
