Research subjects of the Group for Dynamics of Planetary and Stellar Systems:

  • Studying the dynamics of small bodies of the Solar System (asteroids and comets)using numerical methods.
  • Dynamical mapping of the Solar System.
  • Study of the long-term motion of resonant asteroids in the Main asteroid belt, as well as the study of their dynamical evolution under the influence the Yarkovsky effect.
  • Observation of radio sources visible in the optical domain at large international observing projects such as Gaia CRF, Gaia-FUN-TO, WEBT and obtaining data for the study of photometry and morphology of celestial objects.
  • Within the group, observations are made from the Astronomical Station Vidojevica.

Group members:

  • Nataša Todorović (PI), senior research associate
  • Goran Damljanović, principal research fellow
