Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Originally published in 1900, this book presents a collection of fascinating lectures collated from the manuscripts of Professor John Couch Adams. The lectures, which were taught at the University of Cambridge between the years 1860-89, aimed 'to illustrate geometrically the analytical processes' of the Lunar Theory and 'render them more comprehensible'. The book contains a total of eighteen lectures, ranging from accelerations of the Moon relative to the Earth to the parallactic inequality, all presenting the principal theorems from the turn of the century as well as in turn highlighting the tangible array of challenges still faced by physicists in the field. This book will serve as a useful reference tool for researchers and students investigating the history of the Lunar Theory and will be of considerable value to anyone interested in physics, cosmology and astronomy.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of the Moon's motion, tracing the history of scientific inquiry into its complex and seemingly erratic path across the sky. From the ancient Greeks to the early modern era, astronomers have sought to understand the forces that govern the Moon's orbit. The author, building on the work of giants like Newton and Clairaut, examines the key inequalities that influence the Moon's position, including the Variation, the Parallactic Inequality, the Annual Equation, and the Evection. The text explores these concepts through a combination of geometrical and analytical methods, breaking down the intricate mathematical calculations involved and revealing the elegant interplay of gravitational forces. The book also illuminates the evolution of astronomical theory, illustrating how earlier approximations gave way to increasingly accurate and sophisticated models that sought to account for all the observed discrepancies in the Moon's movement. Ultimately, this book provides a rich and detailed exploration of the lunar theory, offering insights into the intricate mechanics of celestial motion and showcasing the remarkable ingenuity of astronomers throughout history in their quest to understand the universe around us. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
