A study of the moderate altitude frozen orbits around the Moon

Lunar frozen orbits, characterized by fixed eccentricity and argument of perigee on average, have been previously studied using different dynamical models. In this work, frozen orbits about the Moon are investigated on the basis of an averaged Hamiltonian. The gravitational field of the Moon is cons...
