Resonant-argument libration is bounded oscillation of a resonant argument about a stable equilibrium value instead of circulation through all angles.
The libration amplitude is the maximum angular displacement of a librating resonant argument from its equilibrium value.
Resonance protection confines conjunctions to orbital phases that avoid close encounters even when the osculating orbits geometrically cross.
