DETAILED ERROR ANALYSIS FOR SPIN-STABILIZED MISSIONS,

Abstract

The note is intended as a computation guide for finding the total velocity error, in both magnitude and direction, for the spin-stabilized portion of satellite and deep-space probe missions. The time sequence of events and spin-up method used are typical of the Able missions, but it is anticipated that only minor modifications will have to be made in order to make computations for other missions.
