The periodic variations of the covariance and the effect on the probability of collision /

This research deals with the investigation of the periodic variations of the covariance of satellites and its effect on the probability of collision, P[C], between two objects in orbit about the Earth. Since the P[C] is dependent on the position covariance the time of conjunction relative to epoch c...
