title = "Homo- and Heteroclinic Connections in the Spatial Solar-Sail Earth-Moon Three-Body Problem",
abstract = "This paper explores the existence of homo- and heteroclinic connections between solar-sail periodic orbits in the Earth-Moon three-body problem. While such connections have been explored extensively in the classical system, the addition of a solar-sail induced acceleration introduces a time-dependency in the dynamics which prevents the use of traditional tools for reducing the dimensionality of the problem (e.g., the Jacobi constant and spatial Poincar{\'e} sections). This paper therefore explores the use of solar-sail assisted manifolds, temporal Poincar{\'e} sections, and a genetic algorithm approach to achieve the sought-after connections and apply the approach to a range of solar-sail periodic orbits.",
