Abstract
AbstractIn this paper we examine, in their historical context, some approximate solutions for Kepler's equation. These explicit formulae, obtained by Trembley, Pacassi, Fergola, and Horrebow, had not a great diffusion and were thus often rediscovered by other astronomers. We will prove that the formulae are equivalent and, moreover, we will give an evaluation of the error. (© 2015 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
