| Abstract |
We construct efficient estimates of the balanced gyro drift
due to nutation oscillations. We show that, for oscillation amplitudes not exceeding one degree and for a majority of gyro motions, the relative error in the drift rate calculations on the basis of the obtained estimates does not exceed tenths of one percent. The numerical results show that the accuracy of the Magnus formula is not worse than predicted by these estimates. |
