it must therefore necessarily follow, that if we substitute Rz=R^ m [7849], we shall, by

Hence the first member of [7981^], depending on these terms, becomes as in [7982^] ;
and by putting sin.^M=l — cos.^m, we get the first expression [7982m]; then by
successive reductions, using a?, r [7981g', s], we get the last form of [7982m] ;

Connecting this last expression with the factor ruldy' [7982g'], it becomes 3 /i . 2 ' r7982»l
as in the second member of [7981^]. From what has been said it appears that the second
member of [7981^] is equivalent to the first member of the same equation. Hence it
follows that the equation [7981] is equivalent to that in [7977].

[7983al * (3797) The differentials of the equations [7982], taken relative to the characteristic
8, give the expressions [7983, 7984].
t (3798) Substituting the values [7825, 7827] in the numerator of [7983], and
reducing by means of the value of cf [7982], it becomes,
[7986a] ^ m'. (xdz-{-xdz — zdx — zdx)-\-m'. {xd2^-{-x*dz — zdx' — z^dx)

[79S66] substituting this in [7983] we get [7986]. In like manner we get from [7984], by using
[7826, 7827], the value of 8d' [7987] ; or it is more easily derived from [7986] by
[7986c] changing x into y and y into x; for by this means Sc' [7983] changes into 5c" [7984],
and 8c' [7986] into Sc" [1981].

t (3799) The quantities z, — [7846'J, are of the order m' ; therefore c', c" [7982]
are of the same order ; and by neglecting terms of the order m'^, we may reject
["98851 '"'^' ^'^'' m'.x'dz, m'.zdx, m'.y'dz, m'.zdy', from [7986, 7987] ; by this means they
will become as in [7989, 7990] respectively.

8. We can obtain the variations of the elements of the orbit, relative to
the part R' of R, by the formulas in [7872—7920], by changing R
1 [7991]
into R' [7838], in the expressions of dh, dl, d. - , dc', dc",
[7849, 7850, 7875, 7888, 7889], and integrating them by means of
quadratures. In the upper portion of the orbit, R' being very small, the
values of these integrals vs^ill also be very small ; but in this portion, w^here
it is so advantageous to divide R into two parts, we may determine without
quadratures, by means of converging series, the variations of the elements of
the orbit corresponding to R'. For this purpose we shall resume the [7992]
expression of R' [7838] ; and by developing it in a series, we shall have,*
R' = -—3 1 m'. ^ — ^^^ ' ^—^ f m', L-^^-Lj !_J &c. [7993]
Now we have,t

[7817c], we shall have, from [78155],
/2 = (x'—xf-\-{y'—yY'}-{s/—zf = r^—2w. [79936 ]
Substituting this in the second term of R [7802], we obtain [7993c] ; and by development
by the binomial theorem, it becomes as in [7993£Z]. If we substitute in the second term of
w
this development — , the second expression of w [7993a], we shall get, by making a
slight reduction, the expression of R [7993e] ;

Substituting this last expression of R in the value of R' [7838], we easily obtain,
and by re-substituting the second value of w [7993a], it becomes as in [7993].
t (3802) If we put, as in [7851e], -orrrO, the expression of a?, y [7861] will become
as in [7994] ; we may also put 2;=0, by neglecting the square of z, as in [7846']. The [7995a]

we have also a/, y, /, in functions of sines and cosines of t/ and its
multiples. We must substitute R' lor i?, in the differential expressions of
the elements of the orbit, and then develop them, using the following values
of r^Jy, r'^dv\ which are easily deduced from [1057], by putting
fx=l [7874];
[7996] r'^dv = dU\/a.{\ — e^) ;

and by this means we shall find that the part of each of these differential
expressions, corresponding to R\ will be expressed by a series of terms of
