Units of relativistic time scales and associated quantities

S. Klioner, N. Capitaine, W. Folkner +6

This note suggests nomenclature for dealing with the units of various astronomical quantities that are used with the relativistic time scales TT, TDB, TCB and TCG. It is suggested…

General-relativistic perturbation equations for the dynamics of elastic deformable astronomical bodies expanded in terms of generalized spherical harmonics

Chongming Xu, Xuejun Wu, Michael Soffel

In our previous paper, based on the Carter & Quintana framework and the Damour-Soffel-Xu scheme, we deduced a complete and closed set of post-Newtonian dynamical equations for elas…

Earth's rotation in the framework of general relativity: rigid multipole moments

S. A. Klioner, M. Soffel, Ch. Xu +1

A set of equations describing the rotational motion of the Earth relative to the GCRS is formulated in the approximation of rigidly rotating multipoles. The external bodies are sup…

The IAU 2000 resolutions for astrometry, celestial mechanics and metrology in the relativistic framework: explanatory supplement

M. Soffel, S. A. Klioner, G. Petit +17

This paper discusses the IAU Resolutions B1.3, B1.4, B1.5 and B1.9 (2000) that were adopted during the 24th General Assembly in Manchester, 2000 and provides details and explanatio…
