On the Oscillations of the Maclaurin Spheroid Belonging to the Third Harmonics.
Abstract
The characteristic frequencies of oscillation of the Maclaurin spheroid belonging to the third harmonics are found Two further points of neutral stability, beyond the first at eccentricity e = 0.81267, are isolated They occur at e = 0.89926 and e = 0.96937; it is the second of these that is the analogue of the point of bifurcation along the Jacobian sequence.
