Abstract

Yan (1991 J.Phys. A: Math. Gen. 24 4731) has drawn the conclusion that, for central fields, there exists another vector constant of motion T, in addition to the angular momentum L. It is proved here that T is in fact only equal to zero 'almost everywhere'; T is not, therefore, rigorously a constant of motion.
