Application of the Radiating Orbital Equation
Please read my previous blog post, Deriving Kepler's Laws for Radiating Stars. In this blog post, we take the previously mentioned ideas and apply them to see if it would ever be necessary in calculation. Read about it here.
Deriving Kepler's Laws for Radiating Stars
In this next blog, I examine how Kepler's Laws (well, just the first one at least) changes when we look at a variable-mass system. Read about it here.

Eccentricity given mass, distance, and relative velocity
Suppose we have two stars; we know their masses, distance from each other, and relative velocity between them. We seek to predict the eccentricity of their orbit.
