    Author(s): Borisov A. V., Mamaev I. S.

    The paper considers two new integrable systems due to Chaplygin, which describe the rolling of a spherical shell on a plane, with a ball or Lagrange’s gyroscope inside. All necessary first integrals and an invariant measure are found. The reduction to quadratures is given.
    Keywords: non-holonomic constraint, integrability, invariant measure, gyroscope, quadrature, coupled rigid bodies
