Scientific paper

An expansion of the external gravitational potential of a homogeneous ellipsoid of revolution with a large flattening is constructed in the form of a series of spherical harmonics, which converges at any point of external space and at the surface of the ellipsoid. The expansion obtained can be used to represent the external potentials of elliptical galaxies.
