In this paper three results on the linearized mapping associated with the plane three body problem near a periodic orbit are established. It is first shown that linear stability of such an orbit is independent of initial position on the orbit and of coordinate system. Second, the relation of Hénon connecting the rates of change of rotation angle and period on an isoenergetic family of periodic orbits is proved, together with a similar relation for families of orbits closing exactly in a rotating coordinate system. Finally, a condition for a critical orbit is given which is applicable to any family of periodic orbits. 相似文献

Most existing satellite relative motion theories utilize mean elements, and therefore cannot be used for calculating long-term bounded perturbed relative orbits. The goal of the current paper is to find an integrable approximation for the relative motion problem under the J 2 perturbation, which is adequate for long-term prediction of bounded relative orbits with arbitrary inclinations. To that end, a radial intermediary Hamiltonian is utilized. The intermediary Hamiltonian retains the original structure of the full J 2 Hamiltonian, excluding the latitude dependence. This formalism provides integrability via separation, a fact that is utilized for finding periodic relative orbits in a local-vertical local-horizontal frame and determine an initialization scheme that yields long-term boundedness of the relative distance. Numerical experiments show that the intermediary-based computation of orbits provides long-term bounded orbits in the full J 2 problem for various inclinations. In addition, a test case is shown in which the radial intermediary-based initial conditions of the chief and deputy satellites yield bounded relative distance in a high-precision orbit propagator. 相似文献

Generally, any initially-close satellites—chief and deputy—moving on orbits with slightly different orbital elements, will depart each other on locally unbounded relative trajectories. Thus, constraints on the initial conditions must be imposed to mitigate the chief-deputy mutual departure. In this paper, it is analytically proven that choosing the chief’s orbit to be a frozen orbit can mitigate the natural relative drift of the satellites. Using mean orbital element variations, it is proven that if the chief’s orbit is frozen, then the mean differential eccentricity is periodic, leading to a periodic variation of the differential mean argument of latitude. On the other hand, if the chief’s orbit is non-frozen, a secular growth in the differential mean argument of latitude leads to a concomitant along-track separation of the deputy from the chief, thereby considerably increasing the relative distance evolution over time. Long-term orbital simulation results indicate that the effect of choosing a frozen orbit vis-à-vis a non-frozen orbit can reduce the relative distance drift by hundreds of meters per day. 相似文献

We locate members of a one-parameter family of equal-mass four-body periodic orbits in the plane. The family begins and ends with the rectilinear four-body equal-mass Schubart interplay orbit and passes through a double choreography orbit. The first-order stability of these orbits is computed. Some members of this symmetric family are stable to symmetric perturbations; however, they are unstable when all perturbations are allowed. 相似文献

We study the change of phase space structure of the rectilinear three-body problem when the mass combination is changed. Generally,
periodic orbits bifurcate from the stable Schubart periodic orbit and move radially outward. Among these periodic orbits there
are dominant periodic orbits having rotation number (n − 2)/n with n ≥ 3. We find that the number of dominant periodic orbits is two when n is odd and four when n is even. Dominant periodic orbits have large stable regions in and out of the stability region of the Schubart orbit (Schubart
region), and so they determine the size of the Schubart region and influence the structure of the Poincaré section out of
the Schubart region. Indeed, with the movement of the dominant periodic orbits, part of complicated structure of the Poincaré
section follows these orbits. We find stable periodic orbits which do not bifurcate from the Schubart orbit. 相似文献

We analyze nearly periodic solutions in the plane problem of three equal-mass bodies by numerically simulating the dynamics of triple systems. We identify families of orbits in which all three points are on one straight line (syzygy) at the initial time. In this case, at fixed total energy of a triple system, the set of initial conditions is a bounded region in four-dimensional parameter space. We scan this region and identify sets of trajectories in which the coordinates and velocities of all bodies are close to their initial values at certain times (which are approximately multiples of the period). We classify the nearly periodic orbits by the structure of trajectory loops over one period. We have found the families of orbits generated by von Schubart’s stable periodic orbit revealed in the rectilinear three-body problem. We have also found families of hierarchical, nearly periodic trajectories with prograde and retrograde motions. In the orbits with prograde motions, the trajectory loops of two close bodies form looplike structures. The trajectories with retrograde motions are characterized by leafed structures. Orbits with central and axial symmetries are identified among the families found. 相似文献

This paper presents rich new families of relative orbits for spacecraft formation flight generated through the application of continuous thrust with only minimal intervention into the dynamics of the problem. Such simplicity facilitates implementation for small, low-cost spacecraft with only position state feedback, and yet permits interesting and novel relative orbits in both two- and three-body systems with potential future applications in space-based interferometry, hyperspectral sensing, and on-orbit inspection. Position feedback is used to modify the natural frequencies of the linearised relative dynamics through direct manipulation of the system eigenvalues, producing new families of stable relative orbits. Specifically, in the Hill–Clohessy–Wiltshire frame, simple adaptations of the linearised dynamics are used to produce a circular relative orbit, frequency-modulated out-of-plane motion, and a novel doubly periodic cylindrical relative trajectory for the purposes of on-orbit inspection. Within the circular restricted three-body problem, a similar minimal approach with position feedback is used to generate new families of stable, frequency-modulated relative orbits in the vicinity of a Lagrange point, culminating in the derivation of the gain requirements for synchronisation of the in-plane and out-of-plane frequencies to yield a singly periodic tilted elliptical relative orbit with potential use as a Lunar far-side communications relay. The \(\Delta v\) requirements for the cylindrical relative orbit and singly periodic Lagrange point orbit are analysed, and it is shown that these requirements are modest and feasible for existing low-thrust propulsion technology. 相似文献

The multi-sun-synchronous orbits allow cycles of observation of the same area in which solar illumination repetitively changes according to the value of the orbit elements and returns to the initial condition after a temporal interval multiple of the repetition of observation. This paper generalizes the concept of multi-sun-synchronous orbits, whose classical sun-synchronous orbits represent particular solutions, taking into consideration the elliptical case. The feasibility of using this typology of orbits, referred to as elliptical periodic multi-sun-synchronous orbits, has been investigated for the exploration of Mars and particular solutions have been selected. Such solutions considerably reduce the manoeuvre of velocity variation at the end of the interplanetary transfer with respect to the case of a target circular orbit around Mars. They are based on the use of quasi-critical inclinations in order to minimize the apsidal line motion and thus reduce orbit maintenance costs. Moreover, in the case of high eccentricities, the argument of pericentre may be set in order to obtain, around the apocentre, a condition of quasi-synchronism with the planet (the footprint of the probe on the surface presents a small shift with respect to a fixed point on the Martian surface). The low altitude of pericentre allows observation of the planet at a higher spatial resolution, while the orbit arc around the apocentre may be used to observe Mars with a wide spatial coverage in quasi-stationary conditions. This latter characteristic is useful for analysing atmospheric and meteorological phenomena and it allows for most of the orbital period a link between a rover on the surface of Mars and a probe orbiting around the planet. 相似文献

Special solutions of the planar rectilinear elliptic restricted 3-body problem are investigated for the limiting case e=1. Numerical integration is performed for primaries of equal masses. Starting values which define circular orbit solutions lead to bounded solutions if the initial radius a0 is larger than 3.74 in units of the primaries' semimajor axis a. A comparison with the Eulerian two-fixedcentre problem is presented in order to understand qualitatively the characteristic features of bounded orbits and the transition to escape orbits. 相似文献

In the general three-body problem, in a rotating frame of reference, a symmetric periodic solution with a binary collision is determined by the abscissa of one body and the energy of the system. For different values of the masses of the three bodies, the symmetric periodic collision orbits form a two-parametric family. In the case of equal masses of the two bodies and small mass of the third body, we found several symmetric periodic collision orbits similar to the corresponding orbits in the restricted three-body problem. Starting with one symmetric periodic collision orbit we obtained two families of such orbits. Also starting with one collision orbit in the Sun-Jupiter-Saturn system we obtained, for a constant value of the mass ratio of two bodies, a family of symmetric periodic collision orbits. 相似文献

A periodic orbit of the restricted circular three-body problem, selected arbitrarily, is used to generate a family of periodic motions in the general three-body problem in a rotating frame of reference, by varying the massm 3 of the third body. This family is continued numerically up to a maximum value of the mass of the originally small body, which corresponds to a mass ratiom 1:m 2:m 3?5:5:3. From that point on the family continues for decreasing massesm 3 until this mass becomes again equal to zero. It turns out that this final orbit of the family is a periodic orbit of the elliptic restricted three body problem. These results indicate clearly that families of periodic motions of the three-body problem exist for fixed values of the three masses, since this continuation can be applied to all members of a family of periodic orbits of the restricted three-body problem. It is also indicated that the periodic orbits of the circular restricted problem can be linked with the periodic orbits of the elliptic three-body problem through periodic orbits of the general three-body problem. 相似文献

We distinguish between regular orbits, that bifurcate from the main families of periodic orbits (those that exist also in the unperturbed case) and irregular periodic orbits, that are independent of the above. The genuine irregular families cannot be made to join the regular families by changing some parameters. We present evidence that all irregular families appear inside lobes formed by the asymptotic curves of the unstable periodic orbits. We study in particular a dynamical system of two degrees of freedom, that is symmetric with respect to the x-axis, and has also a triple resonance in its unperturbed form. The distribution of the periodic orbits (points on a Poincaré surface of section) shows some conspicuous lines composed of points of different multiplicities. The regular periodic orbits along these lines belong to Farey trees. But there are also lines composed mainly of irregular orbits. These are images of the x-axis in the map defined on the Poincaré surface of section. Higher order iterations of this map , close to the unstable triple periodic orbit, produce lines that are close to the asymptotic curves of this unstable orbit. The homoclinic tangle, formed by these asymptotic curves, contains many regular orbits, that were generated by bifurcation from the central orbit, but were trapped inside the tangle as the perturbation increased. We found some stable periodic orbits inside the homoclinic tangle, both regular and irregular. This proves that the homoclinic tangle is not completely chaotic, but contains gaps (islands of stability) filled with KAM curves. 相似文献

This paper presents a method to construct optimal transfers between unstable periodic orbits of differing energies using invariant
manifolds. The transfers constructed in this method asymptotically depart the initial orbit on a trajectory contained within
the unstable manifold of the initial orbit and later, asymptotically arrive at the final orbit on a trajectory contained within
the stable manifold of the final orbit. Primer vector theory is applied to a transfer to determine the optimal maneuvers required
to create the bridging trajectory that connects the unstable and stable manifold trajectories. Transfers are constructed between
unstable periodic orbits in the Sun–Earth, Earth–Moon, and Jupiter-Europa three-body systems. Multiple solutions are found
between the same initial and final orbits, where certain solutions retrace interior portions of the trajectory. All transfers
created satisfy the conditions for optimality. The costs of transfers constructed using manifolds are compared to the costs
of transfers constructed without the use of manifolds. In all cases, the total cost of the transfer is significantly lower
when invariant manifolds are used in the transfer construction. In many cases, the transfers that employ invariant manifolds
are three times more efficient, in terms of fuel expenditure, than the transfer that do not. The decrease in transfer cost
is accompanied by an increase in transfer time of flight. 相似文献

In the framework of the planar restricted three-body problem we study a considerable number of resonances associated to the basic dynamical features of Kuiper belt and located between 30 and 48 a.u. Our study is based on the computation of resonant periodic orbits and their stability. Stable periodic orbits are surrounded by regular librations in phase space and in such domains the capture of trans-Neptunian object is possible. All the periodic orbits found are symmetric and there is an indication of the existence of asymmetric ones only in a few cases. In the present work first, second and third order resonances are under consideration. In the planar circular case we found that most of the periodic orbits are stable. The families of periodic orbits are temporarily interrupted by collisions but they continue up to relatively large values of the Jacobi constant and highly eccentric regular motion exists for all cases. In the elliptic problem and for a particular eccentricity value of the primary bodies, the periodic orbits are isolated. The corresponding families, where they belong to, bifurcate from specific periodic orbits of the circular problem and seem to continue up to the rectilinear problem. Both stable and unstable orbits are obtained for each case. In the elliptic problem, the unstable orbits found are associated with narrow chaotic domains in phase space. The evolution of the orbits, which are located in such chaotic domains, seems to be practically regular and bounded for long time intervals. 相似文献

We demonstrate the remarkable effectiveness of boundary value formulations coupled to numerical continuation for the computation of stable and unstable manifolds in systems of ordinary differential equations. Specifically, we consider the circular restricted three-body problem (CR3BP), which models the motion of a satellite in an Earth–Moon-like system. The CR3BP has many well-known families of periodic orbits, such as the planar Lyapunov orbits and the non-planar vertical and halo orbits. We compute the unstable manifolds of selected vertical and halo orbits, which in several cases leads to the detection of heteroclinic connections from such a periodic orbit to invariant tori. Subsequent continuation of these connecting orbits with a suitable end point condition and allowing the energy level to vary leads to the further detection of apparent homoclinic connections from the base periodic orbit to itself, or the detection of heteroclinic connections from the base periodic orbit to other periodic orbits. Some of these connecting orbits are of potential interest in space mission design. 相似文献

The dynamic evolution of sun-synchronous orbits at a time interval of 20 years is considered. The numerical motion simulation has been carried out using the Celestial Mechanics software package developed at the Institute of Astronomy of the University of Bern. The dependence of the dynamic evolution on the initial value of the ascending node longitude is examined for two families of sun-synchronous orbits with altitudes of 751 and 1191 km. Variations of the semimajor axis and orbit inclination are obtained depending on the initial value of the ascending node longitude. Recommendations on the selection of orbits, in which spent sun-synchronous satellites can be moved, are formulated. Minimal changes of elements over a time interval of 20 years have been observed for orbits in which at the initial time the angle between the orbit ascending node and the direction of the Sun measured along the equator have been close to 90° or 270°. In this case, the semimajor axis of the orbit is not experiencing secular perturbations arising from the satellite’s passage through the Earth’s shadow. 相似文献

The second species periodic solutions of the restricted three body problem are investigated in the limiting case of μ=0. These orbits, called consecutive collision orbits by Hénon and generating orbits by Perko, form an infinite number of continuous one-parameter families and are the true limit, for μ→0, of second species periodic solutions for μ>0. By combining a periodicity condition with an analytic relation, for criticality, isolated members of several families are obtained which possess the unique property that the stability indexk jumps from ±∞ to ?∞ at that particular orbit. These orbits are of great interest since, for small μ>0, ‘neighboring’ orbits will then have a finite (but small) region of stability. 相似文献

This paper studies the relative motion of satellite formation flying in arbitrary elliptical orbits with no perturbation.
The trajectories of the leader and follower satellites are projected onto the celestial sphere. These two projections and
celestial equator intersect each other to form a spherical triangle, in which the vertex angles and arc-distances are used
to describe the relative motion equations. This method is entitled the reference orbital element approach. Here the dimensionless
distance is defined as the ratio of the maximal distance between the leader and follower satellites to the semi-major axis
of the leader satellite. In close formations, this dimensionless distance, as well as some vertex angles and arc-distances
of this spherical triangle, and the orbital element differences are small quantities. A series of order-of-magnitude analyses
about these quantities are conducted. Consequently, the relative motion equations are approximated by expansions truncated
to the second order, i.e. square of the dimensionless distance. In order to study the problem of periodicity of relative motion,
the semi-major axis of the follower is expanded as Taylor series around that of the leader, by regarding relative position
and velocity as small quantities. Using this expansion, it is proved that the periodicity condition derived from Lawden’s
equations is equivalent to the condition that the Taylor series of order one is zero. The first-order relative motion equations,
simplified from the second-order ones, possess the same forms as the periodic solutions of Lawden’s equations. It is presented
that the latter are further first-order approximations to the former; and moreover, compared with the latter more suitable
to research spacecraft rendezvous and docking, the former are more suitable to research relative orbit configurations. The
first-order relative motion equations are expanded as trigonometric series with eccentric anomaly as the angle variable. Except
the terms of order one, the trigonometric series’ amplitudes are geometric series, and corresponding phases are constant both
in the radial and in-track directions. When the trajectory of the in-plane relative motion is similar to an ellipse, a method
to seek this ellipse is presented. The advantage of this method is shown by an example. 相似文献

We study symmetric relative periodic orbits in the isosceles three-body problem using theoretical and numerical approaches.
We first prove that another family of symmetric relative periodic orbits is born from the circular Euler solution besides
the elliptic Euler solutions. Previous studies also showed that there exist infinitely many families of symmetric relative
periodic orbits which are born from heteroclinic connections between triple collisions as well as planar periodic orbits with
binary collisions. We carry out numerical continuation analyses of symmetric relative periodic orbits, and observe abundant
families of symmetric relative periodic orbits bifurcating from the two families born from the circular Euler solution. As
the angular momentum tends to zero, many of the numerically observed families converge to heteroclinic connections between
triple collisions or planar periodic orbits with binary collisions described in the previous results, while some of them converge
to “previously unknown” periodic orbits in the planar problem. 相似文献

The accurate computation of families of periodic orbits is very important in the analysis of various celestial mechanics systems. The main difficulty for the computation of a family of periodic orbits of a given period is the determination within a given region of an individual member of this family which corresponds to a periodic orbit. To compute with certainty accurate individual members of a specific family we apply an efficient method using the Poincaré map on a surface of section of the considered problem. This method converges rapidly, within relatively large regions of the initial conditions. It is also independent of the local dynamics near periodic orbits which is especially useful in the case of conservative dynamical systems that possess many periodic orbits, often of the same period, close to each other in phase space. The only computable information required by this method is the signs of various function evaluations carried out during the integration of the equations of motion. This method can be applied to any system of celestial mechanics. In this contribution we apply it to the photogravitational problem. 相似文献
