Research on gravitational theories involves several contemporary modifed models that predict the existence of a non-Newtonian Yukawa-type correction to the classical gravitational potential. In this paper we consider a Yukawa potential and we calculate the time rate of change of the orbital energy as a function of the orbital mean motion for circular and elliptical . In both cases we fnd that there is a logarithmic dependence of the orbital energy on the mean motion. Using that, we derive an expression for the mean motion as a function of the Yukawa orbital energy, as well as specifc Yukawa potential parameters. Furthermore, various special cases are examined. Lastly, expressions for the Yukawa range � and � are also derived. Finally, an expression for the mass of the graviton ��� mediating the interaction is calculated using the expression its Compton wavelength (i.e., the potential range �). Numerical estimates for the mass of the graviton mediating the interaction are fnally obtained at various eccentricity values and in particular at the perihelion and aphelion points of ’s around the sun.

Terefore, the experimental and observational search for such deviation Any scientist will agree that Einstein’s general relativity theory might result in new type of physics [3].

In this contribution, we examine the time rate of a paper by Chan [2], the authors put forward the idea that the Yukawa orbital energy of circular and elliptical orbits, observational evidence for the existence of cold dark matter and from that we derive relations for the orbital energy as a particles in the cores of dwarf galaxies could be explained function of mean motion � of the orbiting body.
