Scientific paper

Measurements of the trajectories of the Luna probes were used to investigate the global structure of the lunar gravitational field, reflecting large-scale deviations of the field from centrality. These deviations are described by the lower harmonics of the expansion of the lunar gravitational potential in a spherical-function series. The construction of a model of the global structure of the lunar gravitational field involves the reliable determination from satellite trajectory measurements of numerical values of the lower-harmonic expansion coefficients. A global-structure model is constructed here.
