TLDR
In this paper, the two-body problem and the restricted three body problem are considered. And the disturbing function is extended to include the spin-orbit coupling and the resonance perturbations.

Secular evolution of hierarchical planetary systems

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the dynamical evolution of coplanar, hierarchical, two-planet systems where the ratio of the orbital semimajor axes α = a 1/a2 is small.

Tidal locking of habitable exoplanets

TL;DR: In this article, a systematic survey of the rotational evolution of potentially habitable exoplanets using classic equilibrium tide theories has been undertaken, and it is shown that the process of tidal locking is a major factor in the evolution of most of the potentially habitable planets to be discovered in the near future.

Debris disc stirring by secular perturbations from giant planets

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate the effects of the perturbations of a planet, which may lie at a significant distance from the planetesimal disc, to see if these perturbation can stir the disc, and if so over what time-scale.

Satellite dynamics on the laplace surface

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the properties of Laplace surfaces and showed that if the planetary obliquity exceeds 68.875, there is a range of semimajor axes in which the classical Laplace surface is unstable.
