Constant-Power Engines in Flights to L4 point of the Earth-Moon System

The transfer is studied in the context of the classical Circular Restricted Three-Body Problem. The initial state is on a geosinchronous orbit and the terminal state is the L4 triangular Lagrangian point. The use of controllable acceleration engine by minimization of a time integral of the squared e...
