✦ Synopsis

The secular Love numbers of planets and of the Moon have been computed by use of the recent satellite data. It has been demonstrated that Venus, Mercury, and the Moon are far from the ideal hydrostatic equilibrium; the anguIar velocities (rotation periods) which correspond to the hydrostatic equilibrium have been computed.

In the IERS Standards (1989), for the Moon the adopted value of the tide Love number, k2, is equal to 0.0222. In this paper using the latest geodetic parameters of the Moon a group of internal structure models are constructed for this celestial body (see Table ), then the dependence of the Moon's co

A dynamic homogeneous model of Phobos is used: its boundary is an equipotential surface specified by the second zonal and the second sectorial harmonics plus the constant part of the tidal potential due to Mars. The principal moments of inertia, the hydrostatic second zonal harmonic and the secular
