title = "Extended phase-space realization for attitude dynamics of an axisymmetric body in eccentric orbit",
abstract = "This paper investigates the attitude dynamics of a rigid axisymmetric body in an eccentric orbit using a Hamiltonian formulation in the Serret-Andoyer variables. This is formulated using the extended phase-space, wherein the time-like variable arising from the eccentric nature of the orbit is treated as a coordinate. The gravity-gradient potential is modeled as a perturbation for averaging using a Lieseries method. Two formulations are developed to treat the case of a fast-rotating and slow-rotating body in an eccentric orbit, respectively. Analytical investigations lead to identifying resonant commensurabilities and relative equilibria in the slow-rotating rigid body problem.",
