Simple control laws for continuous-thrust escape or capture and their use in optimisation
Abstract
Interplanetary missions which use low-thrust, high specific impulse propulsion can further capitalise on the capabilities of the propulsion system by using it to effect escape from the launch body or capture at a target body.
