Summary:

"The book presents very recent advances in understanding dark matter, dark energy effects, orbital dynamics of exoplanets around binary stars in non-planar configurations, the orbital dynamics of a moon in the star-planet systems, the orbital dynamics of interstellar interlopers around binary stars, the mechanisms of stellar flares, parameters of white dwarfs atmospheres. For achieving this purpose, the presentation covers a brief history of each topic (including a large number of references), provides detailed derivations of the recent advanced results, and illuminates the physics behind these advanced results"-- Provided by publisher.
