The non-linearities of the dynamics of Earth artificial satellites are encapsulated by two formal integrals that are customarily computed by perturbation methods. Standard procedures begin with a Hamiltonian simplification that removes…
A popular intermediary in the theory of artificial satellites is obtained after the elimination of parallactic terms from the J2-problem Hamiltonian. The resulting quasi-Keplerian system is in turn converted into the Kepler problem by a…

A Kepler solver is an analytical method used to solve a two-body problem. In this paper, we propose a new correction method by slightly modifying the Kepler solver. The only change to the analytical solutions is that the obtainment of the…
The main effects of the Earth's oblateness on the motion of artificial satellites are usually derived from the variation of parameters equations of an average representation of the oblateness disturbing function. Rather, we approach their…
