Abstract

In this paper the relation between the planetary distance law and the resonant structures is shown, in that the resonance relation has been expressed in terms of Roche’s constant (Rawal 1984,1986,1989). This brings forth a coherent, elegant and unified picture of the Solar System and satellite systems.
