 Gravitational Harmonics

-Here, we show how to use Swiftest's Gravitational Harmonics capabilities. 
-Swiftest uses `SHTOOLS <https://shtools.github.io/SHTOOLS/>`__ to compute the gravitational harmonics coefficients for a given body and calculate it's associated acceleration kick. 
+Here, we show how to use Swiftest's Gravitational Harmonics capabilities. This is based on ``/spherical_harmonics_cb`` 
+in ``swiftest/examples``. Swiftest uses `SHTOOLS <https://shtools.github.io/SHTOOLS/>`__ to compute the gravitational 
+harmonics coefficients for a given body and calculate it's associated acceleration kick. The additional acceleration 
+kick is based on the gravitaional potential described `here <https://sseh.uchicago.edu/doc/Weiczorek_2015.pdf>`__.

+Gravitational Harmonics coefficients
+=====================================
+
+Swiftest adopts the :math:`4\pi` or geodesy normalization for the gravitational harmonics coefficients.
 The coefficients can be computed in a number of ways: 
 
 - Using the axes measurements of the body ( :func:`clm_from_ellipsoid <swiftest.shgrav.clm_from_ellipsoid>`)
   
 - Using a surface relief grid ( :func:`clm_from_relief <swiftest.shgrav.clm_from_relief>`). 
   
-   * This function is still in development and may not work as expected.
+   - This function is still in development and may not work as expected.
   
 - Manually entering the coefficients when adding the central body ( :func:`add_body <swiftest.Simulation.add_body>`)
 
-This is based on ``/spherical_harmonics_cb`` in ``swiftest/examples``.
