ON A PAIR OF DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS IN THE LUNAR THEORY. [483
and
v 3 = sin 2D { k( I m 2 + ^-m 3 + f| m 4 + m 5 + $£££■ m 6 )
+ j ( | m 2 + m 3 + to 4 + m 5 + ^ff 1 m 6 )},
which for j = A; is = A; ( m 2 + ff m 3 + m 4 + m 5 + 4 ¿4^- m 6 ) .
I have, not in general, but for the value j = k, calculated p 2 and v 2 as far as m 6 :
I have not made the calculation for p 3 and v 3 , but their values may be deduced from
the foregoing values of p, v; the final expressions (when j=k) of p, = 1 + p 2 + p 2 + p 3 + ...
and v, = t + v 1 +v 2 +v 3 ... are

present formulae exhibit the manner in which the expressions depend on the several
powers of the disturbing force.
