Application of MACSYMA to first order perturbation theory in celestial mechanicsThe application of MACSYMA to general first order perturbation theory in celestial mechanics is explored. Methods of derivation of small variations in the Keplerian orbital elements are developed. As an example of the methods, the small general relativistic perturbations on the two-body Newtonian motion, resulting from the rotation of the central body, are developed in detail.
