N-body problem of first-order differential equations, with initial conditions as initial position coordinates and initial momentum values. Symmetries in the -body problem yield global integrals of motion that simplify the problem. Translational symmetry of the problem results in the center of mass moving with constant velocity, so that , where is the linear velocity and is the initial position. The constants of motion and represent six integrals of the motion. Rotational symmetry results in the total angular momentum being constant where × is the cross product. The three components of the total angular momentum yield three more constants of the motion. The
Canon of the Mass in all liturgical texts. Fortescue remarked that the medieval explanations are interesting as showing with what reverence people studied the text of the Canon and how, when every one had forgotten the original reasons for its forms, they still kept the conviction that the Mass is full of venerable mysteries and that all its clauses mean more than common expressions. He added that in this conviction the sometimes naive medieval interpreters were eminently right. Canon of the Mass Canon of the Mass (Latin: "Canon Missæ", "Canon Actionis") is the name given in the Roman Missal, from the first typical edition
