What is Planetary and Figure-figure Effects on the Moon's Rotational Motion about?

An accurate theory of the rotation of the Moon has been constructed by numerical integration. All direct perturbations on the Moon's rotational motion have been analysed. The requirements of the current observational accuracy are such that some improvements had to be added to the theoretical models. First, the gravitational figure of the Moon has been developed up to the fifth degree harmonics. Second, mutual potential effects between the figure of the Moon and the figure of the Earth have been expanded farther up. The direct action of planets must be taken into account, its effects being very small but not always negligible. The physical librafions resulting of planetary effects and Earth-Moon figure-figure interactions are presented in this paper.
