VARIATION OF PARAMETERS BY POISSON'S METHOD

Abstract

A direct derivation for the variation of the elliptic elements is given, starting from the variational equation due to Poisson. The method is suitable for any integral from elliptic motion and gives the variation of an element by the use of a single equation.
