Scientific paper
A potential function is presented for the force by which the atmospheric tide bulge acts on orbits of artificial earth satellites. The tidal bulge is assumed to result from the fact that the earth rotates within the field of lunar mass attraction, the latter being inhomogeneous across the terrestrial globe. Only the main term of the semidiurnal tide is considered in this report. The perturbing acceleration associated with the tide potential is also specified. The latter is intended for use with computer programs for satellite geodesy.
