Artificial Satellites: Rotation

Scientific paper

This paper presents an analytical theory of the attitude evolution of an artificial satellite perturbed by given torques. The main constraint is that of a strongly perturbed slow rotation with the axis pointing far away from a position of equilibrium. Furthermore the three axes of inertia can be unequal. A formal solution is expanded in the second order according to the powers of a small parameter characteristic of the order of magnitude of the disturbing torques, and this theory is suitable whatever are the internal or external disturbing forces producing the torques.
