Cotangential Transfer Orbits As a first guess it would seem reasonable to suppose that the optimum transfer orbit would be tangent to both the initial orbit through P1 and the final orbit through P2. When the transfer angle 6 is 180° and the ...

THE PROBLEM OF COTANGENTIAL TRANSFER.
Solution of the optimum cotangential transfer between two coplanar, noncoaxial, elliptical orbits is presented.

Orbital Mechanics
Other investigators have tried to solve this transfer problem by specializing the transfer to be a 180-deg transfer or to be cotangential. The 180-deg transfer restricts the departure and arrival points to be separated by 180 deg in central angle.
Vladimir A. Chobotov, 2002

Orbital Motion, Fourth Edition
A rocket moving in the inner orbit uses its motor to provide a tangential velocity increment 1-6 times the velocity increment required to take the vehicle from the inner orbit by a cotangential elliptic transfer orbit as far out as the outer orbit.
