I currently work as a Flight Dynamics Engineer at the European Space Operations Center in Darmstadt, Germany. As part of my PhD research at Mexico National Autonomous University, I developed TaylorIntegration.jl, in collaboration with Dr. Luis Benet. I enjoy researching asteroid and comet dynamics, high-accuracy orbit determination, astrodynamics and Taylor-mode automatic differentiation.
Session
One of the main problems in the computation of orbital predictions, is the propagation of the orbital uncertainty. This problem is relevant in a wide range of scenarios, from the design of interplanetary spacecraft trajectories, to the assessment of the hazard posed by an asteroid impacting the Earth. In this talk, we present a technique to propagate large sets of initial conditions in TaylorIntegration.jl via a technique called Automatic Domain Splitting (ADS).
