A novel conjunction filter based on the minimum distance between perturbed trajectories
Ana S. Rivero, Giulio Baù, Rafael Vazquez +1
The increasing congestion in the near-Earth space environment has amplified the need for robust and efficient conjunction analysis techniques including the computation of the minim…
Numerical behavior of the Keplerian Integral methods for initial orbit determination
Óscar Rodríguez, Giovanni F. Gronchi, Giulio Baù +1
We investigate the behaviour of two recent methods for the computation of preliminary orbits. These methods are based on the conservation laws of Kepler's problem, and enable the l…
Linking tracklets over the years in large datasets
Óscar Rodríguez, Giovanni F. Gronchi, Giulio Baù +1
We present a new procedure to identify observations of known objects in large data sets of unlinked detections. It begins with a Keplerian integrals method that allows us to link t…
Orbit determination from one position vector and a very short arc of optical observations
Erica Scantamburlo, Giovanni F. Gronchi, Giulio Baù
In this paper we address the problem of computing a preliminary orbit of a celestial body from one topocentric position vector and a very short arc (VSA) of optical observations. U…
Revisiting the computation of the critical points of the Keplerian distance
Giovanni F. Gronchi, Giulio Baù, Clara Grassi
We consider the Keplerian distance in the case of two elliptic orbits, i.e. the distance between one point on the first ellipse and one point on the second one, assuming they h…
A dynamical definition of the sphere of influence of the Earth
Irene Cavallari, Clara Grassi, Giovanni F. Gronchi +2
The concept of sphere of influence of a planet is useful in both the context of impact monitoring of asteroids with the Earth and of the design of interplanetary trajectories for s…
