Book Description

Determining orbits is an essential step in the exploration and understanding of the Solar System. This book presents new algorithms which can fully exploit tracking data with state-of-the-art levels of accuracy. It will interest graduate students and researchers in applied mathematics, physics, astronomy and aerospace engineering, and non-professional astronomers.
