chaos in celestial mechanics, or nonlinear ODE's.
Most journals don't have a minimum length for papers. Is that 1.5-2 pages manuscript (ie 12 pt font, double-line spaced)? If so, that's short. If it doesn't have sufficient content to stand as a fully-fledged paper, then, yes, perhaps publication as a letter. Not all journals accept such, but they should say whether they do on their web pages. Obvious candidate journals would be Nonlinearity, Celestial Mechanics, or Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy (the same journal as the previous?). Perhaps other astro journals, or even a maths or computational journal?
Most will accept submissions in MS Word format. Just check out their web pages. Just go to a major publisher's journal website, and look for likely titles. Springer and Elsevier (sciencedirect.com.au) are good starting points, being perhaps the biggest publishers.
