A comprehensive textbook encompassing the analytical methods of classical celestial mechanics, the recent numerical experiments into the orbital evolution of gravitating masses, and the astrodynamics of artificial satellites and interplanetary…

De zon komt 's ochtend op en gaat 's avonds weer onder. Dat is een ding dat zeker is. Of niet? Er zijn streken waar de zon maandenlang op is en er zijn plekken op de wereld waar de zon op speciale dagen volgens de plaatselijke klokken pas rond 2 uur…

This textbook provides the basic theoretical and practical knowledge of astronomy and astrophysics. It provides an overview from classical astronomy and observational methods to solar physics and astrophysics of stars and galaxies. It concludes with…

A definitive and authoritative treatment of astrometric measurement and fills the gap between relativistic treatises or research papers and the practical requirements of observational astronomers, astrophysicists and graduates.

The force of gravity acting over eons has provided the solar system with an intricate dynamical structure, much of it revealed by recent space missions. This comprehensive introduction to the dynamical features of the solar system also provides all…

Science is based not only on observation and experiment, but on theory as well. As Einstein said, "Theory tells us what to measure." And theories are often crystallized into succinct calculations, like those made using Einstein's famous E = mc2. This…

This textbook treats Celestial Mechanics as well as Stellar Dynamics from the common point of view of orbit theory making use of the concepts and techniques from modern geometric mechanics. It starts with elementary Newtonian Mechanics and ends with…
