Abstract

The authors' purpose is to generalize in this paper the symplectic character of the particle motions in the three-dimensional magnetic-binary problem. By adopting the classical electrodynamical formulation they find out the general form of the symplectic matrix as well as some relations between the variations of an orbit, which way be used to check the accuracy of any numerical work related to the orbits investigation.
