Abstract

A model of a physical experiment to estimate the speed of gravitational interaction from observations of the geocentric orbits of an artificial satellite in the framework of the consistent Lagrange formalism of the retarded-potential hypothesis is considered. It is shown that it is mathematically correct to postulate the corresponding inverse problem, and results are presented of its numerical investigation, including local estimates of the accuracy of the solution.
