Relativistic Lidov-Kozai resonance in binaries

preprint2008arXivOpen access

Abstract

We consider the secular dynamics of a binary and a planet in terms of non-restricted, hierarchical three-body problem, including the general relativity corrections to the Newtonian gravity. We determine regions in the parameter space where the relativistic corrections may be important for the long-term dynamics. We try to constrain the inclinations of putative Jovian planets in recently announced binary systems of HD 4113 and HD 156846.
