text: A gyrostat is a system of bodies whose relative motion does not alter the mass distribution of the system: for example, a gyroscope attached to an axisymmetric rotor; in a Volterra (1899) gyrostat, the rotor spins at a constant angular velocity relative to its "carrier" body (Wittenburg 2008).
