Scientific paper

This dissertation deals with the general topic of transfer orbits in the two- and three-body problems. Several problems are considered. Those problems are related to each other in the sense that they all have similar goals (to find transfer orbits suitable for a defined task) and that they use similar models for the dynamics (two-body Keplerian orbits or restricted three-body problem). In that way, every chapter can be studied separately and all the background information required from previous chapters is mentioned briefly. An effort is made to keep the duplication of information in the whole dissertation to a minimum level, just enough for the clarity of the ideas presented. The nomenclature used is the standard in the literature for each problem. Every symbol is defined the first time that it is used. In a few cases the same symbol is used for two different chapters with different meanings. An effort is made to keep this repetition of symbols to a minimum, to avoid confusion. The total elimination of this repetition would introduce too many symbols completely different from the standard ones used in the literature. Every time this duplication occurs, it is identified and the new meaning of the symbol is redefined. There is no such repetition in a single chapter. The goals and motivation of this dissertation and the definition of each particular problem treated are made in every chapter, since they vary from chapter to chapter. The conclusions are also presented in each chapter, instead of in an exclusive chapter, for the same reason.
