hw95s
A data.frame
The columns are:
index
the index
body
body generating the potential
degree
degree of the spherical harmonic development
order
order of the spherical harmonic development, k1 = integer argument number for the mean local Moontime, period 24 hours 50 min.
k02
integer argument number for the mean longitude of the Moon, period 27.3 days.
K03
integer argument number for the mean longitude of the Sun, period 365.25 days.
K04
integer argument number for the mean longitude of the lunar perigee, period 8.8 years.
K05
integer argument number for the negate mean longitude of the lunar ascending node, period 18.6 years.
K06
integer argument number for the mean longitude of the solar perigee, period 20942 years.
K07
integer argument number for the mean longitude of Mercury, period 88 days.
K08
integer argument number for the mean longitude of Venus, period 225 days.
K09
integer argument number for the mean longitude of Mars, period 1.88 years.
K10
integer argument number for the mean longitude of Jupiter, period 11.86 years.
K11
integer argument number for the mean longitude of Saturn, period 29.4 years.
frequency
frequency of the tidal wave at J2000 in degree per hour.
C0
COS-coefficient of the tidal potential in 10^-10 m^2/s^2. The C0 coefficient has to be multiplied with the COS of the argument.
S0
SIN-coefficient of the tidal potential in 10^-10 m^2/s^2. The S0 coefficient has to be multiplied with the SIN of the argument.
C1
t*COS-coefficent of the tidal potential in 10^-10 m^2/s^2 per Julian century. The C1 coefficient has to be multiplied with the time difference between the epoch and J2000 (in Julian centuries) and with the COS of the argument.
S1
t*SIN-coefficent of the tidal potential in 10^-10 m^2/s^2 per Julian century. The S1 coefficient has to be multiplied with the time difference between the epoch and J2000 (in Julian centuries) and with the SIN of the argument.
name
Darwin name of the tidal wave (for very few main tidal waves available only)
frequency_cpd
frequency of the tidal wave at J2000 in cycles per day
amplitude
amplitude of the tidal wave at J2000
phase
phase of the tidal wave at J2000
