a magnetic attitude control law that commands a magnetic dipole opposite to the rate of change of the measured geomagnetic field to remove spacecraft spin.

In spacecraft engineering, B-dot control refers to a magnetic attitude control law that commands a magnetic dipole opposite to the rate of change of the measured geomagnetic field to remove spacecraft spin. This meaning comes from Stickler (1976) in Journal of Spacecraft and Rockets.[1]
