Linear and Regular Celestial Mechanics: Perturbed Two-Body Motion Numerical Methods Canonical Theory

by Eduard L. Stiefel, Gerhard Scheifele, Gerhard Scheifele Eduard L. Stiefel

Book Overview

Our presentation of some fundamental domains of celestial mechanics requires no special preliminary knowledge; however, the chosen mathe- matical method is new in so far as the pure two-body motion is described by linear differential equations, which even have constant coefficients. In other words an equivalence between the Keplerian motion and a harmonic oscillation is established; this approach to celestial mechanics will be referred to as the linear...
