- poliastro.core.flybys.compute_flyby(v_spacecraft, v_body, k, r_p, theta)¶
Computes outbound velocity after a flyby and the turn angle.
- Parameters
k (float) – Standard Gravitational parameter.
r_p (float) – Radius of periapsis, measured from the center of the body.
v_spacecraft (float) – Velocity of the spacecraft, relative to the attractor of the body.
v_body (float) – Velocity of the body, relative to its attractor.
theta (float) – Aim angle of the B vector.
- Returns
v_spacecraft_out (float) – Outbound velocity of the spacecraft.
delta (float) – Turn angle.
