| Abstract: | The major contribution of Kepler was in discovering his laws of planetary motion, one of which states that planets move in
elliptical orbits around the Sun which is located at one of the foci of the ellipse. The motion of a test particle in an inverse
square force law is usually called the Kepler problem. We will examine several aspects of this motion in this last installment
of Snippets in Physics. |
