% Computes the position of Lagrange points in normalized rotating coordinates with the origin at the joint center-of-mass. For a demo of the Earth Moon system type LagrangePointsL1ToL5 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Form: p = LagrangePointsL1ToL5( mu ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Inputs ------ mu (1,1) Ratio of smaller mass to total mass ------- Outputs ------- p (2,5) [L1, L2, L3, L4, L5] -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reference: Szebehely, V., "Theory of Orbits", Academic Press, 1967, pp. 134-138. --------------------------------------------------------------------------
