Method calculates orbital changes due to magnetic effects on eccentric and inclined orbits, indicating dynamics.
We provide a method to calculate the evolution of an eccentric and inclined orbit under the magnetic effect. Taking the unipolar interaction as an example, we study both coplanar and inclined orbits. We calculate the Lorentz force and then the changes in orbital energy and angular momentum. Combined with the total energy dissipation we write down the evolution equations of semimajor axis, eccentricity, inclination, and spin. This set of equations can be used to study the orbital and spin evolution under the magnetic interaction.
