Analytical method for perturbed frozen orbit around an asteroid in highly inhomogeneous gravitational fields [PDF]
This article provides a method for finding initial conditions for perturbed frozen orbits around inhomogeneous fast rotating asteroids. These orbits can be used as reference trajectories in missions that require close inspection of any rigid body.

Applications of celestial mechanics in natural objects and spacecrafts [PDF]
Studies related to Celestial Mechanics started long ago, and it is one of the oldest fields in Astronomy. It started to try to explain the motions of the stars in the sky, in particular the irregular motion of some of those of then, which were really the

Analytical perturbation method for frozen orbits around the asteroid 433 Eros [PDF]
In this paper a method for obtaining initial condition for frozen orbits around fast rotating, highly irregular bodies is presented. Such method is based on a general perturbative theory of motion, for inhomogeneous gravitational fields.
