Cyclic coordinates in a two body central force problem

By accident I posted a wrong (copyright-violating!) link from another thread first. I corrected my posting with the correct link pointing to the standard drawing of the spherical coordinates in Wikipedia. Please erase the wrong link in the quote and substitute it with the right one in order not to spread the bad link further!
Done.
