Abstract: | Summary The investigation of the onset of chaos for a dynamical system which models the nonlinear dynamics of particles in anharmonic
potential is analytically performed. It is shown that, in the solutions of the ordinary differential equation which describes
this system, a range of parameter values exists for which the system has in its dynamics the so-called Smale horseshoe, which
is the source of the unstable chaotic motion observed. Furthermore, using the averaging theorem, the stability of the subharmonics
is studied. |
