Description
Stationkeeping for near halo orbits in the Earth-Moon-Sun system is studied. The full solar system is considered as a perturbation of the restricted three body problem. The families of halo orbits and the motion near them is studied. The general equations of motion are integrated to get the final nominal quasi-periodic orbit. The on/off stationkeeping is based on geometrical considerations using a dynamical systems approach. Software to perform analytical and numerical computations and to do simulations of the real behavior was produced. It is proved that the proposed method is very cheap in terms of fuel and it requires no computing time when the nominal orbit and projection factors are available. The feasibility of radiation pressure and low thrust stationkeeping is shown.

    Workshop summary: Kaons@CERN 2023

    Kaon physics is at a turning point - while the rare-kaon experiments NA62 and KOTO are in full swing, the end of their lifetime is approaching and the future experimental landscape needs to be defined. With HIKE, KOTO-II and LHCb-Phase-II on the table and under scrutiny, it is a very good moment in time to take stock and contemplate about the

    Observational evidence of different formation mechanisms of Solar System-type architectures across spectral types

    Despite being the most abundant classes of known exoplanets, super-Earths and mini-Neptunes are absent in our Solar System, and the exact reason for this is still unknown. Some models suggest that cold-Jupiters play a major role in the formation of inner low-mass planets. This could explain the current architecture of our Solar System, and the

    Measuring the Masses of the TOI-700 Planets with ESPRESSO

    Over the past three decades, astronomers have discovered that small, rocky planets in temperate orbits are common around our neighboring stars. Whether or not these planets can maintain atmospheres is an open question in the field. Recently, considerable attention in this search has been focused on M dwarfs stars, as their small sizes make it
