Spin and orbital dynamics of planets undergoing thermal atmospheric tides using a vectorial approach
Ema F. S. Valente, Alexandre C. M. Correia
Earth-mass planets are expected to have atmospheres and experience thermal tides raised by the host star. These tides transfer energy to the planet that can counter the dissipation…
Bounded orbits for 3 bodies in
Alain Albouy, Holger R. Dullin
We consider the Newtonian 3-body problem in dimension 4, and fix a value of the angular momentum which is compatible with this dimension. We show that the energy function cannot te…
Decoupled and coupled moons' ephemerides estimation strategies -- Application to the JUICE mission
M. Fayolle, D. Dirkx, V. Lainey +2
When reconstructing natural satellites' ephemerides from space missions' tracking data, the dynamics of the spacecraft and natural bodies are often solved for separately, in a deco…
A limit of nonplanar 5-body central configurations is nonplanar
Alain Albouy, Antonio Carlos Fernandes
Moeckel (1990), Moeckel and Simó (1995) proved that, while continuously changing the masses, a 946-body planar central configuration bifurcates into a spatial central configuration…
Combining astrometry and JUICE -- Europa Clipper radio science to improve the ephemerides of the Galilean moons
M. Fayolle, A. Magnanini, V. Lainey +3
The upcoming JUICE and Europa Clipper missions to Jupiter's Galilean satellites will provide radio science tracking measurements of both spacecraft. Such data are expected to signi…
Spacecraft VLBI tracking to enhance stellar occultations astrometry of planetary satellites
M. Fayolle, V. Lainey, D. Dirkx +3
Stellar occultations currently provide the most accurate ground-based measurements of the positions of natural satellites (down to a few kilometres for the Galilean moons). However…
