Scientific paper

Three series of periodic terms are presented which make it possible to calculate the heliocentric coordinates of Pluto (longitude, latitude, radius vector) during a time interval of more than two centuries. The terms and coefficients have been derived indirectly by least-square approximation of a numerical integration of the motion of Pluto. For the years 1885 to 2099, the maximum error is 0.5 arcsec in longitude, 0.1 arcsec in latitude, and 0.00002 AU in radius vector as compared to the numerical integration.
