Review text

The spectral coefficients of the selenoid have been obtained by inverting the potential series for lunar gravity. The reference value of the lunar level surface has been determined on the base of the mean radius of lunar topography. This enables to evaluate the parameters of the tri-axial reference ellipsoid best fitted to the lunar level surface.
