On Eulerian equilibria in K-order approximation of the gyrostat in the three-body problem

We consider the noncanonical Hamiltonian dynamics of a gyrostat in the three-body problem. By means of geometric-mechanics methods we study the approximate Poisson dynamics that arises when we develop the potential in series of Legendre and truncate this in an arbitrary order k. Working in the reduc...
