Spheroidal Oscillations of the Moon

PERIODS of natural vibration of three spherical gravitating models of the Moon have been calculated on an IBM 7090 electronic computer. The values provide basic information for lunar space-research concerned with the design of experiments to investigate the structure of the Moon.
