Abstract

In Chap. 5 we solved the problem of the origin of the rings by studying the behaviour of particles in the field of a planet and two gravitating bodies. However, one can also use the same method to study a series of other problems and we shall do that in the present chapter.

“What is your substance, whereof are you made, That millions of strange shadows on you tend? Since every one hath, every one, one shade, And you, but one, can every shadow lend.”

W. Shakespeare, Sonnet 53.
