  • Beschreibung: <jats:title>ABSTRACT</jats:title> <jats:p>The conventional approach to orbit trapping at Lindblad resonances via a pendulum equation fails when the parent of the trapped orbits is too circular. The problem is explained and resolved in the context of the Torus Mapper and a realistic Galaxy model. Tori are computed for orbits trapped at both the inner and outer Lindblad resonances of our Galaxy. At the outer Lindblad resonance, orbits are quasi-periodic and can be accurately fitted by torus mapping. At the inner Lindblad resonance, orbits are significantly chaotic although far from ergodic, and each orbit explores a small range of tori obtained by torus mapping.</jats:p>
