The solution is useful in approximately describing the position vectors of three spherically symmetric masses, one of which has a much smaller mass than the other two. These masses perform free motion under each others gravitational influence. The set of solutions is found using the lamberts wave function.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2004-02-08T07:22:47.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "00A69" ], "keywords": [ "closed form approximation solutions", "body problem", "restricted circular", "masses perform free motion", "lamberts wave function" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
