Geometric parametrization of binary elastic collisions | Amaro J. Rica da Silva
; José P. S. Lemos
; | Date: |
21 Feb 2006 | Subject: | Classical Physics; Space Physics | Abstract: | A geometric view of the possible outcomes of elastic collisions of two massive bodies is developed that integrates laboratory, center of mass, and relative body frames in a single diagram. From these diagrams all the scattering properties of binary collisions can be obtained. The particular case of gravitational scattering by a moving massive object corresponds to the slingshot maneuver, and its maximum velocity is obtained. | Source: | arXiv, physics/0602138 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
