Galactic tide and secular orbital evolution
P. Pastor, J. Klacka, L. Komar
Equation of motion for the galactic tide is treated for the case of a comet situated in the Oort cloud of comets. We take into account that galactic potential and mass density depe…
Galactic tide and orbital evolution of comets
L. Komar, J. Klacka, P. Pastor
Equation of motion for a comet in the Oort cloud is numerically solved. Orbital evolution of the comet under the action of the gravity of the Sun and the Galaxy is presented for va…
Relation between various formulations of perturbation equations of celestial mechanics
P. Pastor
Orbital motion of a body can be found from Newtonian equation of motion. However, it is useful to express the motion through time derivatives of Keplerian orbital elements, mainly…
Solar wind and motion of dust grains
J. Klacka, J. Petrzala, P. Pastor +1
Action of solar wind on arbitrarily shaped interplanetary dust particle is investigated. The final relativistically covariant equation of motion of the particle contains both orbit…
Are explanations of the Poynting-Robertson effect correct?
J. Klacka, J. Petrzala, P. Pastor +1
Physics of the Poynting-Robertson (P-R) effect is discussed and compared with the statements published in the past thirty years. Relativistically covariant formulation reveals the…
