Hipparcos preliminary astrometric masses for the two close-in companions to HD 131664 and HD 43848. A brown dwarf and a low mass star

open access: yes, 2009
[abridged] We attempt to improve on the characterization of the properties (orbital elements, masses) of two Doppler-detected sub-stellar companions to the nearby G dwarfs HD 131664 and HD 43848. We carry out orbital fits to the Hipparcos IAD for the two

Multiconfigurational nature of 5f orbitals in uranium and plutonium intermetallics

open access: yes, 2012
Uranium and plutonium's 5f electrons are tenuously poised between strongly bonding with ligand spd-states and residing close to the nucleus. The unusual properties of these elements and their compounds (eg.

New Symbiotic Stars Monitored with the Hermes Spectrograph: A Case Study of Orbital Hα Modulation

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2012
We present new orbital elements for two symbiotic systems involving a giant of spectral type S, namely V420 Hya and ER Del. These orbital elements are compared with existing elements for S-type binaries and for symbiotic binaries with M-giant primaries ...

Orbital elements of barium stars formed through a wind accretion scenario [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Taking the total angular momentum conservation in place of the tangential momentum conservation, and considering the square and higher power terms of orbital eccentricity e, the changes of orbital elements of binaries are calculated for wind accretion ...

Orbital flips in hierarchical triple systems: relativistic effects and third-body effects to hexadecapole order

open access: yes, 2017
We analyze the secular evolution of hierarchical triple systems in the post-Newtonian approximation to general relativity. We expand the Newtonian three-body equations of motion in powers of the ratio $a/A$, where $a$ and $A$ are the semimajor axis of ...

Orbital Elements Ephemerides and Interfaces Design of LEO Satellites [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geodesy and Geoinformation Science, 2019
Low earth orbit satellites, with unique advantages, are prosperous types of navigation augmentation satellites for the GNSS satellites constellations. The broadcast ephemeris element needs to be designed as an important index of the augmented LEOs.

Automatic correction of orbital elements using continuous thrust controlled in closed loop

open access: yes, 2013
This work aims to study and simulate the control of a spacecraft trajectory in order to correct automatically and simultaneously the orbital elements that define the orbit: semi-major axis, eccentricity, periapse argument, inclination and right ascension

Orbital Optimization in the Active Space Decomposition Model

open access: yes, 2015
We report the derivation and implementation of orbital optimization algorithms for the active space decomposition (ASD) model, which are extensions of complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) and its occupation-restricted variants in the ...

The theory of canonical perturbations applied to attitude dynamics and to the Earth rotation. Osculating and nonosculating Andoyer variables

open access: yes, 2007
The Hamiltonian theory of Earth rotation, known as the Kinoshita-Souchay theory, operates with nonosculating Andoyer elements. This situation parallels a similar phenomenon that often happens (but seldom gets noticed) in orbital dynamics, when the ...

Phase Functions and Light Curves of Wide Separation Extrasolar Giant Planets

open access: yes, 2005
We calculate self-consistent extrasolar giant planet (EGP) phase functions and light curves for orbital distances ranging from 0.2 AU to 15 AU. We explore the dependence on wavelength, cloud condensation, and Keplerian orbital elements.
