The evolution of the orbit of the second satellite of Neptune (Nereid) on time intervals up to 500 thousand years is investigated. The methods used by authors earlier are supplemented with the possibility of considering the influence of the attraction of the internal satellite Triton on the evolutio...

Description
Summary:The evolution of the orbit of the second satellite of Neptune (Nereid) on time intervals up to 500 thousand years is investigated. The methods used by authors earlier are supplemented with the possibility of considering the influence of the attraction of the internal satellite Triton on the evolution of the orbit of the external satellite Nereid.
