The 2PN Point-Mass N-Body Equations of Motion in Harmonic Gauge: A Computable Formulation
Hongkun Huang, Jie Yang, Wei-Tou Ni
We develop a semi-analytic and semi-numerical formulation of the harmonic-gauge second post-Newtonian (2PN) equations of motion for a general point-mass N-body system within Hadama…
Analysis of Tidal Perturbations Due to Asymmetric Response of LARES 2 and LAGEOS
Xizhi Hu, Xiaodong Chen, Jianqiao Xu +3
Earth tidal perturbations affecting laser-ranged satellites are critical for refining satellite orbital dynamics modeling, and their accurate computation represents a prerequisite…
Frame-dragging effects in a gravitational quantum field theory
Dongfeng Gao, Wei-Tou Ni
Analogous to magnetism in electrodynamics, it is gravitomagnetism in relativistic gravity. Since gravity determines locally inertial frames, in general relativity (GR) and other re…
Space gravitational wave detection: Progress and outlook
Wei-Tou Ni
Space-based gravitational wave detection is based on the astrodynamical equations derived from gravitational theory to detect changes in distance between spacecraft/celestial bodie…
Prospects in the orbital and rotational dynamics of the Moon with the advent of sub-centimeter lunar laser ranging
S. M. Kopeikin, E. Pavlis, D. Pavlis +7
Lunar Laser Ranging (LLR) measurements are crucial for advanced exploration of the laws of fundamental gravitational physics and geophysics. Current LLR technology allows us to mea…
