The GAP homepage recently got new sections where the GAP bibliography may be browsed by year and by MSC2010 subjects.

It happens that there is one publication using GAP in the category "Mechanics of particles and systems". Secondary MSC codes and the list of citations point that it is relevant to celestial mechanics:

  • Ferrario, D. L. and Terracini, S., On the existence of collisionless equivariant minimizers for the classical $n$-body problem, Invent. Math., 155 (2) (2004), 305--362.
