# gst: isles of regularity (depending on the initial setup) in a sea of chaos amid the gravitational three-body problem.

AA << study probes the presence of regular (i.e. non-chaotic) trajectories within the 3BP (three-body problem) and assesses their impact on statistical escape theories. >>

AA << analysis reveals that regular trajectories occupy a significant fraction of the phase space, ranging from 28% to 84% depending on the initial setup, and their outcomes defy the predictions of statistical escape theories. The coexistence of regular and chaotic regions at all scales is characterized by a multi-fractal behaviour. >>
