attitude stabilization with a spinning rotor and a despun platform, whose stability depends on energy dissipation in each body.

In spacecraft engineering, dual-spin stabilization refers to attitude stabilization with a spinning rotor and a despun platform, whose stability depends on energy dissipation in each body. This meaning comes from Likins (1967) in Journal of Spacecraft and Rockets.[1]
