how to use variables and gawk in a script?

Hi,

I want to define variables in a shell script and make gawk use them to make some operations

Code:
    Mfn = $(grep " 1 " $fitxer | gawk '{print $2}')
    Xfn = $(grep " 1 " $fitxer | gawk '{print $3}')
    Yfn = $(grep " 1 " $fitxer | gawk '{print $4}')
    Zfn = $(grep " 1 " $fitxer | gawk '{print $5}')

# Calculem l'eix semimajor del sistema 1-particula

   cat $fitxer | gawk -v NAME=$num_part '
         /AS/ {TIME=$4}
         $1==NAME {print TIME,(sqrt(($3-$Xfn)^2+($4-$Yfn)^2+($5-$Zfn))*$Mfn/(2*$Mfn-$11*($6^2+$7^2+$8^2))); exit}
    '
done

But gawk doesn't understand that $Xfn, $Yfn, $Zfn and $Mfn are not fields but values defined before

How to do this??

ZGREP(1)						      General Commands Manual							  ZGREP(1)

NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename... DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code: (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked. EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified. AUTHOR
