Scientific paper

The accuracy of first-order perturbation theory for long-period comets
in a galactic tidal field is examined by comparing the theoretical
predictions for changes in perihelion distance to the results of direct
numerical integrations. It is found that the first-order theory agrees
well with the integrations.
