Optimum constant-thrust transfers?
(Bertil Jonell) wrote in message ...
There has been a lot of work done on Hohman and Bielliptic transfers,
but has there been anything on constant-thrust transfers? Of course, the
"optimum" in this case won't be lowest deltaV, but shortest time for a
given acceleration?
Does anyone have any pointers to online papers?

Try googling "Pontryagin constant thrust orbit transfer" and see what you can find?
