Definition

A dynamical model that extends the Circular Restricted Three-Body Problem by incorporating solar radiation pressure from a solar sail. In addition to the gravitational forces of two primaries and the Coriolis/centrifugal forces in the rotating frame, the spacecraft experiences solar radiation pressure acceleration dependent on sail attitude angles. This model yields new equilibrium points (artificial libration points) closer to the Sun than natural libration points.

Application Value

Solar Sail Circular Restricted Three-Body Problem plays a critical role in trajectory optimization and multi-body dynamics analysis for solving complex trajectory design problems.
