Relativistic time scales in the Solar system

Sergei A. Klioner

This paper summarizes theoretical definitions of the relativistic coordinate time scales introduced by the IAU 2000 framework as well as practical aspects of their use. It is argue…

Gaia GraL X.: The GraL catalogue of gravitationally lensed quasars Matched with \textit{Gaia} data, redshifts, and time delays

C. Ducourant, R. Teixeira, P. H. Vale-Cunha +25

Determining the Hubble constant tension requires alternative strategies, and multiply imaged quasars, with their intermediate redshifts, can potentially be used in this regard. We…

NovaMoon: A Strategic Lunar Reference Station for Positioning, Timing, and Largely Enhanced Science in the Earth-Moon System

Serena Molli, Agnès Fienga, Pascale Defraigne +82

The renewed interest in lunar exploration and the development of future lunar communication and navigation services highlight the need for a precise, stable, and interoperable geod…

Post-Newtonian accelerations of a Mercury orbiter

Miriam Falletta, Gabriel Rodríguez-Moris, Sergei A. Klioner

We investigate the relativistic modeling of spacecraft motion in Mercury's post-Newtonian local coordinates. This investigation is motivated by the fact that Mercury's post-Newtoni…

Gravitational waves and small-field astrometry

Robin Geyer, Sven Zschocke, Michael Soffel +3

Astrometric observations can, in principle, be used to detect gravitational waves. In this paper we give a practical overview of the gravitational wave effects which can be expecte…

Gaia GraL: Gaia gravitational lens systems IX. Using XGBoost to explore the Gaia Focused Product Release GravLens catalogue

Quentin Petit, Christine Ducourant, Eric Slezak +21

Aims. Quasar strong gravitational lenses are important tools for putting constraints on the dark matter distribution, dark energy contribution, and the Hubble-Lemaitre parameter. W…
