Abstract

The results of repeated processing of magnetic measurements carried out on the Foton M-2 satellite (which was in orbit from May 31 to June 16, 2005) are described. The processing was performed in order to reconstruct the uncontrolled rotational motion of this satellite. In re-processing, the mathematical model of rotational motion was used, which is simpler, than that used in processing, performed shortly after the flight. Simplifications were done in such a way, that the new model corresponded to the models, used by V.V. Beletsky in his theoretical analysis of the evolution of uncontrolled rotational motion of a satellite in the case in which this motion was close to the regular Euler’s precession of an axisymmetric solid body. The results of processing the measurements, carried out during 14 short (4.5–5 h) time intervals, are directly compared with the evolutionary equations arising in Beletsky’s theory. This allowed us to interpret the evolution of the rotational motion of the Foton M-2 and to explain the origin of the motion regime that was established at the end of the flight.

福田M-2卫星自转运动的演化研究

摘要

在福田M-2上进行磁测量的重复处理的结果描述了卫星（2005年5月31日至6月16日在轨）。进行处理是为了重建该卫星的不受控制的旋转运动。在后处理中，使用了旋转运动的数学模型，该模型比飞行后不久执行的处理中的模型更简单。简化的方式是，新模型与VV Beletsky在理论上分析卫星的不受控制的旋转运动的演化所使用的模型相对应，在这种情况下，该运动接近常规Euler的进动。轴对称实体。在14个短时间（4.5-5小时）内进行的测量处理结果直接与Beletsky理论中出现的演化方程进行了比较。福田M-2，并解释在飞行结束时建立的运动机制的起源。
