Ion dynamic characterization using phase-resolved laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy in a Hall effect thruster
Y. Dancheva, P. Coniglio, M. Da Valle +1
Significant information on the dynamics of the plasma constituents in Hall effect thrusters can be obtained using minimally-intrusive techniques such as laser-induced fluorescence…
Optimal Low-Thrust Orbit Transfers Made Easy: A Direct Approach
Mirko Leomanni, Gianni Bianchini, Andrea Garulli +1
The optimization of low-thrust, multi-revolution orbit transfer trajectories is often regarded as a difficult problem in modern astrodynamics. In this paper, a flexible and computa…
An Adaptive Groundtrack Maintenance Scheme for Spacecraft with Electric Propulsion
Mirko Leomanni, Andrea Garulli, Antonio Giannitrapani +1
In this paper, the repeat-groundtrack orbit maintenance problem is addressed for spacecraft driven by electric propulsion. An adaptive solution is proposed, which combines an hyste…
