Scientific paper

A new, fully analytical perturbation theory for low satellites, intended for a preliminary study of their orbits, is presented. This theory uses a mixed Lagrange-Hamilton formalism, separately accounting for the very short-periodic, medium-periodic and long-periodic effects. The two main problems are the slow convergence with respect to the degree and order of the spherical harmonics expansion of the gravity field of the central body, and the presence of second order effects. An application of the theory to the mission analysis of a low polar lunar orbiter, such as the proposed European mission MORO, is described.
