概要 Orbital motion is a vital subject which has engaged the greatest minds in mathematics and physics from Kepler to Einstein. It has gained in importance in the space age and touches every scientist in a...y field of space science. Still, there is almost a total dearth of books in this important field at the elementary and intermediate levels - at best a chapter in an undergraduate or graduate mechanics course.
Orbital motion is a vital subject which has engaged the greatest minds in mathematics and physics from Kepler to Einstein. It has gained in importance in the space age and touches every scientist in any field of space science. Still, there is almost a total dearth of books in this important field at the elementary and intermediate levels - at best a chapter in an undergraduate or graduate mechanics course.
Keppler puzzled over it. So did Einstein. In fact, most of the greatest theorists had at least a thought or two about orbital motion, especially in the rise and growth of space science. Tan (physics, Alabama A&M U.) brings the concepts to the introductory and intermediate undergraduate levels, working primarily from first principles and beginning with Kepler's laws of planetary motion and Newton's law of gravitation. Thus armed, he explains the average and extremum values of variables, the central force problem, vector hodographs in planetary motion, planetary motion in Cartesian coordinates, the planetary problem in complex coordinates, Keplerian motion in the solar system, and planetary motion in three-dimensional space. He concludes with analyses of the motion of artificial earth satellites and the perturbations of satellite orbits, providing a fine treatment of the ellipse and its properties in an appendix.
