to Commission 7 about the work accomplished in the USSR in
1958 - 1960.
No attempt is made either to give a complete bibliography
of published papers (especially of those pertaining also
to the Commission 4, 17, 20 and 22 ) or to describe theo-
retical work in detail.
PROBL OF THREE BODIES
At the Institute of Theoretical Astronomy at Leningrad
the investigations on the final motion in this problem was
continued and some interesting results for the case when the
constant of energy is negative were obtained by G.A.Merman
C13. He has obtained also [23 a new general solution of the
problem of three bodies in the form of convergent series,quite
different from that of sandman. V.A.iirumberg [33 has studied
the relativistic problem of three bodies and has found{ 43
the corresponding corrections for the motion of the loon with
a completeness not yet attained. some particular cases of the
problem of three bodies related to the study of the Trojan
group of minor planets and to the Rabe's hypothesis on their
origin were investigated by t.*.A. Chebotarev and his collaborat-
ore [5,6,7, . dome cases of temporal capture in the elliptical
restricted .problem were found.by V.F.Froskurin and L. I.
itumianceva [93 .
At Sternberg Astronomical Institute, Moscow University,
some special aspects of the restricted problem were considered
by late N.D.Noiseiev 410J 13.K.shohigolev { 11j investigated
the "second Hill's intermediate orbit? as- a possible starting
