Next: Matching terms in the Up: Appendix II Power series Previous: Expanding Lthe distance

Expanding R as a Taylor series of an analytic function.

So expanding R as a Taylor series in tex2html_wrap_inline1377...

Now our boundary condition constraints are tex2html_wrap_inline1289 and tex2html_wrap_inline1291. Where L is the distance along the central meridian from the equator. Which translates to tex2html_wrap_inline1293. Placing this in the Taylor expansion...
