Eccentricity or eccentric may refer to:

Astronomical orbits

  • Orbital eccentricity, in astrodynamics, a measure of the non-circularity of an orbit
  • Eccentric anomaly, the angle between the direction of periapsis and the current position of an object on its orbit
  • Eccentric, a type of deferent, a circle or sphere used in obsolete epicyclical systems to carry a planet around the Earth or Sun
