Elliptic_orbit:
In a gravitational two-body problem with negative energy, both bodies follow similar elliptic orbits with the same orbital period around their common barycenter. Examples of elliptic orbits include: Hohmann transfer orbit, Molniya orbit, and tundra orbit. Conclusions: The orbital period is equal to that for a circular orbit with the orbital radius equal to the semi-major axis, For a given semi-major axis the orbital period does not depend on the eccentricity. If the eccentricity is less than 1 then the equation of motion describes an elliptical orbit. Closed-form time-independent path equations of an elliptic orbit with respect to a central body can be determined from just an initial position and velocity. Because at least six variables are absolutely required to completely represent an elliptic orbit with this set of parameters, then six variables are required to represent an orbit with any set of parameters. The following chart of the perihelion and aphelion of the planets, dwarf planets and Halley's Comet demonstrates the variation of the eccentricity of their elliptical orbits.
