(a) The initial system angular momentum, Lo, (assuming an initial near circular orbit of the Moon at three Earth radii) that would result in evection resonance location ares. Also shown (dashed curve) is the Earth spin, s′res, at resonance encounter. The current Earth-Moon angular momentum, LEM, as well as twice its value are shown for comparison (dotted lines).
