The angle $$v$$, measured from perihelion to the planet, is the true anomaly of the planet at some time. We imagine, in addition to the true planet, a “mean” planet, which moves at constant angular speed $$2π/P$$, so that the angle from perihelion to the mean planet at time $$t$$ is $$M = \frac{2π(t − T)}{P}$$, which is called the mean anomaly at time $$t$$. The words “true” and “mean” preceding the word “anomaly” refer to the “true” planet and the “mean” planet.
The angle $$θ = ω + v$$, measured from FIND SYMBOL, is the argument of latitude of the planet at time $$t$$.
The angle $$l = Ω + θ = Ω + ω + v = ϖ + v$$ measured in two planes, is the true longitude of the planet. This is a rather curious term, since, being measured in two planes, it is not really the true longitude at all. The word “true” refers to the “true” planet rather than to the longitude.
Likewise the angle $$L = Ω + ω + M = ϖ + M$$ is the mean longitude (i.e. the “longitude” of the “mean” planet.).
