Path: Orbit/OrbitMechanics
% Compute the period for an orbit. You specify the semi-major axis. The default central body is the Earth. Type Period for a demo -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Form: p = Period( a, mu ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Inputs ------ a (1,:) Semi-major axis (inf for a parabola and negative for a hyperbola) mu (1,1) Gravitational parameter (default = Earth) ------- Outputs ------- p (1,:) Period (s) --------------------------------------------------------------------------
