Description

The code solves the single- and multiple-revolution Lambert's Problem (boundary value problem for motion governed by Keplerian dynamics).

The approach is based on the vercosine formulation and uses a 2D (biquintic) interpolation scheme to globally converge with a single unguarded update step.  The interpolation requires coefficient files, also available for download.  The code is described in the paper:

Russell, Ryan P., “On the Solution to Every Lambert Problem,” Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy, accepted 2019, https://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10569-019-9927-z
