Celestial Mechanics: A Survey Of The Status Of The Determination Of The General Perturbations Of The Minor Planets (1922) (Hardcover)

Celestial Mechanics: A Survey Of The Status Of The Determination Of The General Perturbations Of The Minor Planets is a book written by Armin Otto Leuschner, first published in 1922. The book is a comprehensive survey of the study of celestial mechanics, specifically focusing on the perturbations of minor planets. Leuschner provides a detailed analysis of the methods and techniques used to determine the general perturbations of these planets, which are caused by the gravitational influence of other celestial bodies in the solar system. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the history of celestial mechanics, the mathematical principles underlying the study of perturbations, and the practical applications of this knowledge in the field of astronomy. Leuschner's work is considered a seminal contribution to the study of celestial mechanics and remains an important reference for scholars in the field.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
