Gauge Freedom in the N-body Problem of Celestial Mechanics
The goal of this paper is to demonstrate how the internal symmetry of the N-body celestial-mechanics problem can be exploited in orbit calculation.We start with summarising research reported in (Efroimsky 2002(Efroimsky , 2003;;Newman & Efroimsky 2003;Efroimsky & Goldreich 2003) and develop its application to planetary equations in non-inertial frames.This class …
