Autonomous formation flight using solar radiation pressure [PDF]
CEAS Space Journal, 2021 AbstractAutonomous formation flight enables new satellite missions for novel applications. The cost and limits of propulsion systems can be overcome if environmental resources are being benefitted of. Currently, atmospheric drag is used in low Earth orbit to this end.

Advancing the Solar Radiation Pressure Model for BeiDou-3 IGSO Satellites
Remote Sensing, 2022 In the absence of detailed surface information, empirical solar radiation pressure (SRP) models, such as the five-parameter Empirical CODE Orbit Model (ECOM1) and its extended version-ECOM2, are widely used for modeling SRP forces acting on GNSS ...

Theory of radiation pressure on a diffractive solar sail [PDF]
Journal of the Optical Society of America B, 2022 Solar sails propelled by radiation pressure enable space missions that cannot be achieved using chemical rockets alone. Significant in-space propulsion for missions such as a solar polar orbiter may be achieved with a sail that deviates sunlight at a large average angular direction.

Improving solar radiation pressure modeling for GLONASS satellites [PDF]
Journal of Geodesy, 2020 AbstractThe Russian Global Navigation Satellite System (GLONASS) satellites have a stretched body shape and take a specific attitude mode inside the eclipse. Based on previous studies, the new Empirical CODE orbit model (ECOM2) performs better than the classical ECOM model if a satellite has elongated shape or does not maintain yaw-steering mode, and ...

Balancing the effects of solar radiation pressure on the orbital elements of a spacecraft using Lorentz force [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 In this work, orbits of Lorentz spacecrafts and satellites are investigated under the perturbation of solar radiation pressure. An attempt is made to control the perturbation of the solar radiation pressure using the effect of Lorentz force that affects ...

Sailing with solar and planetary radiation pressure [PDF]
Advances in Space Research, 2021 Literature on solar sailing has thus far mostly considered solar radiation pressure (SRP) as the only contribution to sail force. However, considering a sail in a planetary mission scenario, a new contribution can be added. Since the planet itself emits radiation, this generates a radial planetary radiation pressure (PRP) that is also exerted on the ...

Controlling the Perturbations of Solar Radiation Pressure on the Lorentz Spacecraft [PDF]
Symmetry, 2020 The aim of the present paper is to analyze the viability of using Lorentz Force (LF) acting on a charged spacecraft to neutralize the effects of Solar Radiation Pressure (SRP) on the longitude of the ascending node and the argument of perigee of the spacecraft’s orbit.

Could Solar Radiation Pressure Explain ‘Oumuamua’s Peculiar Acceleration? [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2018 Abstract ‘Oumuamua (1I/2017 U1) is the first object of interstellar origin observed in the solar system. Recently, Micheli et al. reported that ‘Oumuamua showed deviations from a Keplerian orbit at a high statistical significance. The observed trajectory is best explained by an excess radial acceleration Δa ∝ r −2 ...
