Trajectory Anomalies in Interplanetary Spacecraft A Method for Determining Accelerations Due to Thermal Emissions and New Mission Proposals /

This thesis presents fundamental work that explains two mysteries concerning the trajectory of interplanetary spacecraft. For the first problem, the so-called Pioneer anomaly, a wholly new and innovative method was developed for computing all contributions to the acceleration due to onboard thermal...
