Solving the Three Body Problem: An Electromagnetic Approach

This paper presents a novel, physics-based solution to the classical three-body problem by introducing an electromagnetic framework grounded in plasma cosmology. Building on the foundational models from our earlier work Revisiting Titius-Bode—most notably the Jupiter Mass Limit (JML) and Jupiter Orbital Speed Limit (JOSL)—we derive a deterministic approach that replaces chaotic approximations with stability through electromagnetic constraints.

By incorporating axial magnetic field strength, disk plasma density and orbital mass relationships, the resulting model accurately predicts orbital plane stability, eccentricity evolution and apsidal precession for known multi-body systems in our solar system. Tested for the Jupiter-Saturn-Sun and Mercury-Venus-Sun systems, including a comparison for the Great Inequality.

The proposed Electromagnetic Solution to the Three-Body Problem extends naturally to exoplanetary and retrograde systems, offering new tools for system classification and formation history analysis.

All models are supported by reproducible Python code and empirical tests.
