GYROTHEORY OF A SPINNING ROTATIONALLY SYMMETRIC SATELLITE. A NEW INTEGRAL OF THE EQUATIONS OF MOTION

Abstract

Without restriction to plane or infinitesimally small motions, the differential equations for a spinning rotationally symmetric satellite have been established, using new methods, in the form of two second-order differential equations. An integral of these equations has been found.
