The kinematical mechanism for the perturbation of the rotational axis in the rotation of the elastic Earth
Description: Kubo (Celest Mech Dyn Astron 110:143-168, 2011) investigated the kinematical structure of the perturbation in the rotation of the elastic Earth due to the deformation caused by the outer bodies. In that paper, while the mechanism for the perturbation of the figure axis was made clear, that for the rotational axis was not shown explicitly. In this study, following the same method, the structure of the perturbation of the rotational axis is investigated. [Source: Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy]
