The author discusses the dependence of the constants of nutation and precession upon the values of other fundamental constants such as the dynamical ellipticity of the Earth, the mass of the Moon and the solar parallax in the case of two different theoretical models of the Earth.

Résumé. — L'auteur discute l'influence sur les constantes de la nutation et de la précession, des valeurs d'autres constantes fondamentales, comme l'aplatissement dynamique de la Terre, la masse de la Lune et la parallaxe solaire, en prenant deux modèles théoriques différents de la Terre.

Zusammenfassung. — Ausgehend von zwei verschiedenen theoretischen Erdmodellen untersucht Verf. die Abhängigkeit der Präzessions- und Nutationskonstanten von den Werten anderer fundamentaler Konstanten wie der dynamischen Erdabplattung, der Mondmasse und der Sonnenparallaxe.

Резюме. — Пользуясь двумя разными теоретическими моделями Земли автор обсуждает влияние значений основных постоянных (как динамическое сжатие Земли, масса Луны и солнечный параллакс) на постоянных нутации и прецессии.
