• TITLE: Analytical Third Order Solution for Coupling Effects of Earth Oblateness and Direct Solar Radiation Pressure on the Motion of Artificial Satellites

  AUTHORS: Hadia Hassan Selim

  KEYWORDS: Earth Oblateness-Solar Radiation Pressure-Artificial Satellites

  JOURNAL NAME: International Journal of Astronomy and Astrophysics, Vol.4 No.3, September 16, 2014

  ABSTRACT: Coupling effects of Earth oblateness and direct solar radiation pressure on the motion of an artificial satellite are evaluated. Secular and periodic terms are retained up to order three and two respectively, where the coefficient of the second zonal harmonic of the geopotential is considered of first order. The solution revealed the existence of secular terms at order three that arises from the couplings between terms, of lower orders, resulting from the solar radiation pressure.
