Factory function for creating settings for target panel reflection law using a specular-diffuse model
Factory function for creating settings for target panel reflection law used for a radiation pressure target, with a specular diffuse model. The details of the implementation are given by Montenbruck et al. (2015). The reflection law is defined by the absorption coefficient \(\alpha\), diffuse reflectivity \(\delta\) and specular reflectivity \(\rho\), which must meet the condition \(\alpha+\delta+\rho=1\). For the model definition, the user provides \(\alpha\) and \(\delta\) (and \(\rho\) is calculated). The reaction vector \(\hat{\mathbf{f}}\) for a panel with surface normal \(\hat{\mathbf{n}}\), and unit vector from panel surface to source \(\hat{\mathbf{r}}\) then becomes:

Factory function for creating settings for a dynamically panelled extended radiation source
Factory function for creating settings for a radiation source that is modelled as an anisotropic extended source, such as a source due to albedo or planetary IR. The model can combined any number of superimposed surface panel radiosity models (e.g. albedo, direct radiation), each of which may or may not involve an ‘original source’ (e.g. the Sun for albedo). Each time the radiation at a given target is computed, the surface of the body is re-panelled, using the algorithm described by Knocke (1989). In short, a single panel is placed at the zenith of the evaluation point, with any number of rings around it, each of which has any number of (equispaced) panels on it. The width of each ring is such that all panels have the same projected, attenuated area. The panelling settings are defined by the user to this function. The The irradiance \(\Phi\) at a relative position \(\mathbf{r}\) from the source’s center is then computed from all \(N\) panels, each of which evaluated \(M\) panel radiosity models
\[\Phi=\sum_{i=1}^{N}\sum_{j=1}\Phi_{i,j}\]where \(\Phi_{i,j}\) denotes the contribution to the total irradiance of panel radiosity model \(j\) on panel \(i\).
