Discovery of an M4 Spectroscopic Binary in Upper Scorpius: A Calibration Point for Young Low-Mass Evolutionary Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We report the discovery of a new low-mass spectroscopic (SB2) stellar binary system in the star-forming region of Upper Scorpius. This object, UScoCTIO5, was discovered by Ardila (2000), who assigned it a spectral class of M4.

Bistatic Radar Observations Correlation of LEO Satellites Considering J2 Perturbation

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
Space debris near Earth severely interferes with the development of space, and cataloging space objects is increasingly important. Since optical telescopes and radars used to detect space debris only provide short-arc observations, mathematical ...

Geostationary Orbit Surveillance Using the Unscented Kalman Filter and the Analytical Orbit Model [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2011
A strategy for geostationary orbit (or geostationary earth orbit [GEO]) surveillance based on optical angular observations is presented in this study. For the dynamic model, precise analytical orbit model developed by Lee et al.

Initial Orbit Determination from Only Heading Measurements

open access: yesJournal of Spacecraft and Rockets, 2023
This work introduces the problem of initial orbit determination (IOD) from only heading measurements. Such a problem occurs in practice when estimating the orbit of a spacecraft using visual odometry measurements from an optical camera. After reviewing the problem geometry, a simple solution is developed in the form of an iterative scheme on the ...

A More Reliable Orbit Initialization Method for LEO Precise Orbit Determination Using GNSS [PDF]

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Precise orbit determination (POD) using GNSS has been rapidly developed and is the mainstream technology for the navigation of low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites. The initialization of orbit parameters is a key prerequisite for LEO POD processing. For a LEO satellite equipped with a GNSS receiver, sufficient discrete kinematic positions can be obtained ...

Shadowing Lemma and Chaotic Orbit Determination

open access: yes, 2015
Orbit determination is possible for a chaotic orbit of a dynamical system, given a finite set of observations, provided the initial conditions are at the central time.

Precise Orbit Determination for BeiDou GEO/IGSO Satellites during Orbit Maneuvering with Pseudo-Stochastic Pulses

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2019
In order to provide better service for the Asia-Pacific region, the BeiDou navigation satellite system (BDS) is designed as a constellation containing medium earth orbit (MEO), geostationary earth orbit (GEO), and inclined geosynchronous orbit (IGSO ...
