Scientific paper

The main components of the light pressure exerted on a geostationary satellite are examined. The vector of the pressure of sunlight and the earth's IR emission is calculated on the basis of photometric and spectral observations of geostationary satellites. Formulas are derived for each component, which make it possible to calculate the components of the disturbing force in geocentric coordinates as well as in the orbital coordinate system. Calculations are presented for two observed geostationary satellites.
