Description - Orbital Motion by A.E. Roy

This is a comprehensive mathematically detailed textbook on classical celestial mechanics, including numerical methods, astrodynamics of artificial satellites and interplanetary craft. This revised edition involves updates to all chapters and the addition of a new chapter on The Caledonian Symmetrical N-Body Problem, explaining the principles and applications from first principles. This will be the first time this new method has appeared in a text book. The contents have been reorganised and extended to encompass new methods and teaching demands and to cover more modern applied areas such as satellite dynamics. A long established course text for advanced undergraduates and graduate students in a range of disciplines from physics to astronomy this new edition extends the use to cover the needs of the growing number of students in aerospace and satellite engineering and the growing number of planetary scientists who now need to cover this material in more detail.
