| Title | Satellite Orbits : Models, Methods and Applications |
| Author(s) | Montenbruck, Oliver;Gill, Eberhard |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2000. |
| Description | XI, 369 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This is a modern textbook that guides the reader through the theory and practice of satellite orbit prediction and determination. Starting from basic principles of orbital mechanics, it covers elaborate force models as well as precise methods of satellite tracking. Emphasis is on numerical treatment and a multitude of algorithms adopted in modern satellite trajectory computation are described in detail. Numerous exercises and applications are provided and supplemented by a unique collection of computer programs with associated C++ source codes. The CD-ROM that was provided with previous printings of this edition has been replaced by a zip-archive made available on Springer???s ExtraMaterials server http://extras.springer.com/. These programs are built around a powerful spaceflight dynamics library well suited to the development of individual applications. " to="" the="" development="" of="" individual="" applications. An extensive collection of Internet resources is provided through WWW hyperlinks to detailed and frequently updated online information on spaceflight dynamics. The book addresses students and scientists working in the field of navigation, geodesy and spaceflight technology, as well as satellite engineers and operators focusing on spaceflight dynamics |

| Title | Astronomy on the Personal Computer |
| Author(s) | Montenbruck, Oliver;Pfleger, Thomas |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2000. |
| Description | XV, 300 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Astronomy on the Personal Computer provides the reader with a thorough introduction to the computation of celestial mechanics, which is of particular significance to astronomical observation. Covering everything from astronomical and computational theory to the construction of rapid and accurate applications programs, this book supplies the necessary knowledge and software solutions for determining and predicting the positions of the Sun, Moon, planets, minor planets and comets, solar eclipses, stellar occultations by the Moon, phases of the Moon and much more. This completely revised edition makes use of the widely implemented programming language C++, and individual applications may be efficiently realized through the use of a powerful module library. The material previously available on an accompanying CD-ROM, now at extras.springer.com, contains, in addition to the complete, fully documented and commented source codes, the executable programs for use with the Windows 98/2000/XP and LINUX operating systems |

| Title | Astronomy on the Personal Computer |
| Author(s) | Montenbruck, Oliver;Pfleger, Thomas |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 1994. |
| Description | XIII, 313 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | It is said that a typical astronomer of the 19th century spent seven hours working at a desk for every hour spent at the telescope. That 's how long the routine analysis of data took with pencil, paper, and logarithmic tables. Thus when Wilhelm Olbers discovered the minor planet Vesta in 1807 and gathered the necessary observations, his friend Gauss needed almost 10 hours to hand?? calculate its orbit. That achievement astonished many less gifted astronomers of the time, who might have labored days to work out the orbit of a newfound comet. How different things are today! Gauss's method of orbit determination, presented in Chap. 11 of this book, runs to completion on a horne computer in a few seconds at most. The machine will issue its accurate results in less time than it takes to key in the observations. In this book, alandmark in the youthfulliterature of astronomical com?? puter algorithms, Oliver Montenbruck and Thomas Pfleger cover many topics of keen interest to the practical ob server. For me its most remarkable feature is the library of interrelated program modules, aIl elegantly written in PAS?? CAL. Anyone who has tried to create such modules in interpreted BASIC soon runs into trouble: too few letters for variable names, not enough signifi?? cant digits, and so on. These PASCAL routines are invoked one after another in coordinate transformations and calendar conversions |

| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 1998. |
| Description | XIII, 313 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Astronomy on the PC provides practical solutions to a variety of astronomical problems. The book includes both astronomical fundamentals and the technical know-how for an implementation of high-quality software. Efficient and precise computer programs help the user to calculate and predict - positions of the Sun, Moon, and the planets - rising and setting times - physical ephemerides of the Sun and the major planets - positions of comets and minor planets (with perturbations) - the central line and local conditions of solar eclipses - stellar occultations - orbits in the solar system from three observations - coordinates from sky photographs Software developers will find a comprehensive collection of efficient Pascal routines. The extensive documentation and selfcontained structure facilitate a fast and reliable development of individual programs. The enclosed diskette contains source texts of all programs for Turbo Pascal on IBM-compatible PCs or Pure Pascal on Atari ST/TT computers. For the new edition the programs have also been made accessible using Windows. Furthermore, an input file for the OCCULT program is now included on the diskette containing the stars of the Zodiacal Catalogue by Robertson |
