Abstract

This paper is primarily a review of work on the motions of artificial satellites carried out in the Department of Celestial Mechanics of Moscow University during 1957–62. The paper describes the formulation of problems and main results of work in the following areas:

  1. 1)

    Theory of translational rotational motions. Primary attention is devoted to the rotational motion of artificial satellites (Duboshin, Rybakov, Kondurar, Yarov-Yarovoi).

  2. 2)

    Construction of intermediate orbits based on averaging of the right-hand sides of two differential equations of motion and on the application of the probability theory (Shchigolev).

  3. 3)

    Analytical theory of the motion of artificial earth satellites. Perturbations through the fifth order are taken into account (Orlov).

  4. 4)

    An analytical theory of motion of lunar and outer space probes (YarovYarovoi).

  5. 5)

    Work on the region of convergence of Hill’s series in the restricted problem of three bodies (Ryabov).

  6. 6)

    Construction of an analytical theory of motion of artificial earth satellites subject to the following perturbations: Earth oblateness, triaxiality, atmospheric drag, influence of other planets (Grebenikov, Demin, Aks enov).

  7. 7)

    An analytical theory of motion of an artificial satellite in the gravitational field of the earth, based on a generalization of the problem of two fixed centers (Grebenikov, Demin, Aksenov).

The paper also mentions activities of scientists working at other institutes but having close working relations with the Department of Celestial Mechanics of the Moscow State University (Magnaradze, Elenevskaya, Reznikovsky, Kondurar, et al.). In conclusion, important results are mentioned which were obtained by mathematicians at the Moscow State University who are engaged in purely mathematical studies of certain problems in celestial mechanics (Arnold, Alexeev, et al.).

абстрактный

Настоящий доклад посвящен главным образом обзору научной работы по теории движения искусственных небесных тел (“астродинамика”), выполненной на кафедре небесной механики Московского Университета за последние пятывт (1957-1962 гг.). В докладе излагаются постановки задач и основные результаты в следующих направлениях:

  1. 1)

    Теория поступательно-вращательного движения небесных тел, в особенности теория вращательного движения искусственных небесных тел (работы Г.Н.Дубошина, А.И.Рыбакова, В.Т.Кондурарь, М.С.Яров-Ярового)

  2. 2)

    Проблема построения промежуточных орбит на принципе осреднения правых частей дифференциальных уравнений движения с применением методов теории вероятностей (работы Б.М. Щиголева)

  3. 3)

    Аналитическая теория движения спутников Земли в гравитационном поле планеты с учетом возмущений до пятого порядка включительно“(работы А.А.Орлова)

  4. 4)

    Аналитическая теория движения космического корабля к Луне и к другим планетам солнечной системы (работы М.С.ЯровЯрового)

  5. 5)

    Определение области сходимости рядов Хилла в ограниченной задаче трех тел (работы Ю.А.Рябова)

  6. 6)

    Построение аналитической теории движения искусственного спутника Земли с учетом сжатия Земли, трехосности,сопротивления земной атмосферы и возмущений других планет (работы Е.А.Гребеникова, В.Г.Демина, Е.П.Аксенова)

  7. 7)

    Построение аналитической теории движения искусственного спутника в гравитационном поле Земли на базе обобщенной задачи двух неподвижных центров (совместная работа Е.А. Гребеникова, В.Г.Демина и Е.П.Аксенова).

Кроме того, в докладе отмечаются работы ученых, работаю щих в других институтах и организациях, но поддерживающих тесные научные связи с кафедрой небесной механики МГУ (работы Н.Г.Магнарадзе, Н.Б.Еленовской, П.М.Резниковского, В.Т Кондурарь и др.). В заключение отмечаются важные результаты, полученные математиками МГУ, занимающимися некоторыми чисто математическими проблемами небесной механики (работы В.И.Арнольда, В.М.Алексеева и др.).
