Orbital elements for motion of real particle under the action of electromagnetic radiation
نویسنده
چکیده
Discussion of different types of osculating orbital elements for motion of real dust particle under the action of electromagnetic radiation in the central gravitational field is presented. It is shown that physically correct access is based on gravitational acceleration as the only radial acceleration – " radiation pressure " is not included in the radial acceleration.

Electromagnetic Radiation and Motion of Dust Particle – A Simple Model
A simple model for motion of dust particle (meteoroid) under the action of (solar) electromagnetic radiation is presented. The particle of the form of plane mirror is taken into account and exact analytical results are presented. As for long-term orbital evolution, particle may spiral outwards the central body (Sun); initial conditions are important. As a consequence, motion of real dust partic...
متن کاملElectromagnetic Radiation and Motion of a Particle
We consider the motion of uncharged dust grains of arbitrary shape including the effects of electromagnetic radiation and thermal emission. The resulting relativistically covariant equation of motion is expressed in terms of standard optical parameters. Explicit expressions for secular changes of osculating orbital elements are derived in detail for the special case of the Poynting-Robertson ef...
متن کاملOn Equation of Motion for Arbitrarily Shaped Particle under Action of Electromagnetic Radiation
Arguments of astronomers against equation of motion for arbitrarily shaped particle under action of electromagnetic radiation are discussed. Each of the arguments is commented in detail from the point of view of the required physics. It is shown that the arguments of astronomers, including referees in several astronomical and astrophysical journals, are unacceptable from the physical point of v...
متن کاملOn Radiation Pressure and the Poynting- Robertson Effect for Fluffy Dust Particles
Equation of motion for real dust particle under the action of electromagnetic radiation is more general than equation of motion corresponding to standardly used Poynting-Robertson effect (P-R effect). As a consequence, orbital evolution of particles may significantly differ from that corresponding to the P-R effect. The paper discusses recently published (Icarus, June 2002) derivation of equati...
متن کاملElectromagnetic Radiation and Equation of Motion for Really Shaped Particle – New Covariant Formulation
Relativistically covariant form of equation of motion for real particle (body) under the action of electromagnetic radiation is derived. Equation of motion in the proper frame of the particle uses the radiation pressure cross section 3 × 3 matrix. Obtained covariant equation of motion is compared with another covariant equation of motion which was presented more than one year ago.
