TORRES DEL CASTILLO, G.F  y  CALVARIO ACOCAL, J.L. Making hidden symmetries obvious. Rev. mex. fis. [online]. 2008, vol.54, n.2, pp.127-129. ISSN 0035-001X.

It is shown that the Hamiltonian of a particle in a uniform gravitational field which possesses a constant of motion not related to transformations in the configuration space, can be expressed in a system of canonical coordinates such that a maximal set of independent constants of motion follows from the existence of ignorable coordinates.

Palabras llave : Hidden symmetries; Hamiltonian formalism.
