Problem Set 5.3: For a near circular orbit with a potential: (r, z) = -GM[R² + {a + (z² + b²)¹/²3²]-1/² which is expressed in the cylindrical coordinates of r and z. Consider the orbit when z=0, calculate the epicycle frequency a and vertical frequency 3, and derive an expression for the azimuthal motion (orthogonal to r and z) with respect to orbital motion whose angular frequency is wc.
