I'm trying to read more into the Lagrange-Gibbs F and G solutions for orbit determinations, but I just can't seem to find anything on it. It's in the lecture slides and in the textbook, but when I do a simple google search, I am not getting anything. The theory is correct and all, so I'm pretty sure it's an official technique, but I can't seem to find any more information on it.

What's the reason behind this? Is it because it's not widely used / and is obscure?

And what can I do if I'm trying to read more into a topic and I'm not finding anything through a simple google search?

The reason why you might not be finding much information on the Lagrange-Gibbs F and G solutions for orbit determinations is because it is a relatively obscure topic. It is not widely used and most researchers do not have a need to learn about it. If you're trying to read more into a topic and you're not finding anything through a simple Google search, there are a few different things you can do. You can try searching in more specialized databases like NASA's Astrophysics Data System or the Institute of Physics' Inspec database. You can also look up papers written by experts in the field or try looking through research papers that cite the original papers where the topic was first discussed. Additionally, you can reach out to experts in the field through professional networks or email to ask them questions about the topic.
