Abstract
The two-boost problem in space mission design asks whether two points of position space can be connected by a Hamiltonian path on a fixed energy level set. We provide a positive answer for a class of systems having the same behaviour at infinity as the restricted three-body problem by relating it to the Lagrangian Rabinowitz Floer homology computed in [4]. The main technical challenge is to prove the boundedness of the corresponding sets of Reeb chords.
