Dinámica no lineal y Atrofísica

Abstract

Concepts and techniques from Nonlinear Dynamics, also known as Chaos Theory, have been applied successfully to several astrophysical fields such as orbital motion, time series analysis or galactic dynamics, providing answers to old questions but also opening a few new ones. Some of these topics are described in this review article, sowing the basis of Nonlinear Dynamics and how it is applied to Astrophysics
