abstract = "Solar sails are a type of propulsion mechanism which uses solar
radiation pressure to generate acceleration. The fundamental goal
while designing this kind of technology is to provide a large and
flat reflective film, meanwhile it requires a minimum of
structural support mass. In order to analyze the evolution of the
orbit of a spacecraft when it is a solar sail around Mercury, the
present research investigates dynamical equations of motion which
takes into account the central bodys irregular shape, the
perturbation of the third body and the solar radiation pressure.
We present an approach where we present maps to analyze frozen
orbits with longer lifetimes around Mercury. A set of initial
conditions, which may contribute with scientific missions planned
to visit the planet Mercury are presented. Frozen orbits are
found, the ones with smaller variation of the orbital elements,
helping the orbit control and on saving operational costs. It is
also presented an approach to analyze the effect of the
non-sphericity of Mercury on the motion of the spacecraft, where
the J2 and J3 zonal terms are included along with the C22
sectorial term.",
