摘要
Since the concept of Nongravitational Force (hereafter NF) was first proposed a century and a half ago, different models of it have been suggested and being modified. Its effect on the orbital motions of comets has been studied. Especially, some researchers have attempted to draw some inclues of the physical nature of the cometary nucleus from the NF parameters. In this paper, we try to give a concise review about the different models of NF and their effects on orbit computation. And then, we will try to detect whether there is nongravitational effect on Comet Hale-Bopp’s orbital motion using Style II NF model.
