Summary

After remarking that the homogeneous hemisphere might be adopted as a model to represent various geological bodies in the quantitative interpretation of gravity anomalies, a finite expression for its gravitational potential is derived.

Riassunto

Dopo aver rilevato che la semisfera omogenea potrebbe essere adottata quale modello per rappresentare var corpi geologici nell'interpretazione quantitativa di anomalie di gravità, si deriva una espressione finita per il potenziale gravitazionale di tale figura.
