Linking Averaged and Unaveraged Three-Body Dynamics Near Smaller Primaries: Symmetric Periodic Orbits
Beom Park, Kathleen C. Howell
Within a three-body system comprised of two celestial bodies and a spacecraft, the dynamical environment near a smaller primary is significantly perturbed, motivating a balance bet…

A Frequency-Domain Differential Corrector for Quasi-Periodic Trajectory Design and Analysis
Beom Park, Kathleen C. Howell, Shaun Stewart
This paper introduces the Frequency-Domain Differential Corrector (FDDC), a model-agnostic approach for constructing quasi-periodic orbits (QPOs) across a range of dynamical regime…
