Kepler's Equation

释义

Kepler's Equation

Let be the mean anomaly and the Eccentric Anomaly of a body orbiting on anEllipse with Eccentricity , then

(1)

For

not a multiple of

, Kepler's equation has a unique solution, but is a Transcendental Equation and socannot be inverted and solved directly for

given an arbitrary

. However, many algorithms have been derived forsolving the equation as a result of its importance in celestial mechanics.

Writing a as a Power Series in gives

(2)

where the coefficients are given by the Lagrange Inversion Theorem as

(3)

(Wintner 1941, Moulton 1970, Henrici 1974, Finch). Surprisingly, this series diverges for

(4)

a value known as the Laplace Limit. In fact,

converges as a Geometric Series with ratio

(5)

(Finch).

There is also a series solution in Bessel Functions of the First Kind,

(6)

This series converges for all

like a Geometric Series with ratio

(7)

The equation can also be solved by letting be the Angle between the planet's motion and thedirection Perpendicular to the Radius Vector. Then

(8)

Alternatively, we can define

in terms of an intermediate variable

(9)

then

(10)

(11)

Iterative methods such as the simple

(12)

with

work well, as does Newton's Method,

(13)

In solving Kepler's equation, Stieltjes required the solution to

(14)

which is 1.1996678640257734... (Goursat 1959, Le Lionnais 1983).
