abstract = "A Swing-By maneuver occurs when a satellite approaches a celestial
body to gain or lose energy from its gravitational field. The
present work studies Swing-By maneuvers that are combined with the
use of an impulsive thrust in different directions during the
passage of the spacecraft by the periapsis of its trajectory
around the Moon. The main objective of this type of maneuver is
the fuel economy for orbital transfers. From the results, it is
visible that the best direction to apply the impulse is not the
direction to the motion of the spacecraft, as might be expected.
In fact, by using a different direction, it is possible to
maximize the effects of the Swing-By by decreasing the periapsis
distance and/or increasing the turning angle of the maneuver, that
are the key parameters to specify the variation of energy due to
the Swing-By. The changes in the periapsis distance and turning
angle cause modifications in the geometry of the original
Swing-By, generating a maneuver with new parameters. This new
Swing-By compensates for the loss of energy transfer that results
of applying the impulse in a in a non-tangential direction.",
