Study of the surface shape of Pageos from photoelectric observations.
Abstract
The paper deals with the application of photoelectric photometry to the measurement of the deformation of the Pageos balloon satellite surface. The determination of the spin dynamics of Pageos by photoelectric photometry is discussed.
