Orbit-averaged perturbation equations of celestial mechanics with applications to Saturn’s E ring particles
Following Burns 1976, we study the effect of a variety of perturbing forces on a set of orbital elements—semi-major axis a, eccentricity e, inclination i, the longitude of pericenter π, the longitude of the ascending node Ω, and the time of pericenter passage τ. Using elementary dynamics, we can der...
