dc.description.abstractPines’ and Gottlieb’s Formulations for the gravitational potential provides expressions for the gravitational potential, U, and its derivatives in a co-ordinate system that produces non-singular values. This report summarizes the origin of the singularities due to the spherical co-ordinate system and a discussion of the methods by which the singularity produced by the conventional representation of the gravitational potential is removed by the implementations described in this report.en
