THE USE OF HIGH-SPEED COMPUTERS FOR THE SOLUTION OF THE RESTRICTED THREE- BODY PROBLEM BY THE HILL-BROWN METHOD. PART I. CALCULATION OF THE RIGHT-HAND MEMBERS OF NON-HOMOGENEOUS EQUATIONS
The development of the Hill-Brown method for the theory of motion of irregular Jovian satellites with the use of high-speed computers is described. As a first attempt, equations in non-homogeneous form were used, although they are not so accurate as homogeneous equations, because of the lesser labor consumption. The sequence of calculations was chosen so that it should best be fitted to the operation of a "Strela"'computer which has 2,047 cells in the operational memory plus a magnetic tape storage and whose calculation speed amounts to 2000 operations per second. In the expansions of perturbation function derivatives, the terms were retained which are not higher than alpha / sup 2/e', alpha e'/sup 2/, e'/sup 3/, alpha /sup 2/z/sup 2/, since this proc edure is sufficient to ensure the accuracy of 0.1" in geocentric longitude as was estimated by Tokmalayeva in 1956.
