摘要

The problem of optimizing the lunar transfers of low-thrust spacecraft with the optimal value of the right ascension of the ascending node and the argument of the perigee of the initial Earth’s and the final Moon’s orbits is considered. The goal of optimization is to minimize a thrust value of the electric propulsion systems. The obtained trajectories with minimum thrust for partially free and fixed boundary conditions are compared.
