THohmn:

Path: Orbit/OrbitMechanics

% Computes all times for a Hohmann Transfer.

   Since version 1.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Form:
   [Ts, Tt, Tw, T, phi1, phi2, P1, P2] = THohmn( R1, R2, mu )

   ------
   Inputs
   ------
   R1                    Orbit radius 1
   R2                    Orbit radius 2
   mu                    Gravitational parameter

   -------
   Outputs
   -------
   Ts                    Synodic Period 
   Tt                    Transfer time 
   Tw                    Wait Time 
   T                     Total trip time  
   phi1                  phase angle between 1 and 2 at launch
                         + implies 2 leads 1
   phi2                  phase angle between 1 and 2 at intercept
                         + implies 1 lags 2
   P1                    Period of orbit 1 
   P2                    Period of orbit 2
