Abstract
This paper contains an investigation of the way in which the determination of the apsidal motion may be affected by a change in the orbital period. The following cases are presented: a) the orbital period undergoes an abrupt change, b) the orbital period has a continuous variation, and c) the apsidal motion is affected by the presence of a third component.
In order to determine the apsidal motion from T2− T1differences or O − C diagrams, two methods are presented.
Finally, a new program for observations of primary and secondary minima is proposed.
