Abstract

In the problem of motion of the Kowalevski top in a double force field the new case of reduction to a Hamiltonian system with two degrees of freedom was pointed out by Kharlamov [Kharlamov, M.P., 2004. Mekh. Tverd. Tela 34, 47–58]. We show that the equations of motion in this case can be separated by the appropriate change of variables, the new variables U , V being hyperelliptic functions of time. The natural phase variables (components of the angular velocity and the direction vectors of the forces with respect to the movable basis) are expressed via U , V explicitly in elementary algebraic functions.
