THE SOLAR-RADIATION PRESSURE EFFECTS ON THE ORBITAL EVOLUTION OF ASTEROID MOONS
Journal Title: Odessa Astronomical Publications - Year 2015, Vol 28, Issue 1
Abstract
In the theory of motion, disturbances are divided into gravitational and non-gravitational ones. In this paper, we discuss the effects of solar-radiation pressure on the orbital evolution of asteroid moons. It is known from the laws of physics that the smaller an object is the more pressure is exerted on it by solar radiation. That is the reason why asteroid moons with their small sizes are exposed to the solar-radiation pressure so much.

IMPROVED EPHEMERIS OF POORLY STUDIED ECLIPSING BINARY GSC 3950-00707 = 2MASS J20355082+5242136
We made our CCD-observations of GSC 3950-00707 by using the telescope Celestron-14 of Vihorlat Observatory and Astronomical Observatory on Kolonica Saddle. The moments of minima were calculated by using the symme...
SPECTROSCOPICAL STUDY OF FAINT SOUTHERN CEPHEIDS WITH SOUTHERN AFRICAN LARGE TELESCOPE (SALT). FIRST RESULTS.
First Cepheids observations using echelle-spectrograph HRS fed by Southern African Large Telescope (SALT) were realized during 2016. All spectra have been obtained in the medium resoltion mode (R≈31000–41000) wth high S/...

ON THE ADVANTAGES OF PHOTOMETRIC OBSERVATIONS OF THE GEOSTATIONARYSATELLITES AT SMALL PHASE ANGLES
As a rule, to determine photometric and dynamic characteristics of geostationary satellites required for their identification, long-lasting (from a half of the yearto one year) photometricobservations are needed at GSS d...
DETERMINATION OF THE POSITION AND VELOCITY OF THE NATURAL SATELLITE’S SHADOW ON THE ILLUMINATED PART OF THE SPHERICAL PLANET’S VISIBLE DISK
This study introduces a simple analytical method for determination of the rectangular coordinates of the natural satellite’s (or the moon’s) shadow cast on the illuminated part of the spherical planet’s visible disk and...
