Gauge Freedom in the N-body problem of Celestial Mechanics

preprint2003arXivOpen access

Abstract

We summarise research reported in (Efroimsky 2002, 2003; Efroimsky and Goldreich 2003a,b) and develop its application to planetary equations in non-inertial frames. We provide a practical example illustrating how the gauge formalism considerably simplifies the calculation of satellite motion about an oblate precessing planet.
