Dynamics and Mission Design Near Libration Points - Vol I: Fundamentals: The Case of Collinear Libration Points (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9789810242855)

In this book the problem of station keeping is studied for orbits near libration points in the solar system. The main focus is on orbits near halo ones in the (Earth+Moon)-Sun system. Taking as starting point the restricted three-body problem, the motion in the full solar system is considered as a perturbation of this simplified model. All the study is done with enough generality to allow easy application to other primary-secondary systems as a simple extension of the analytical and numerical computations.
