Frank G. Lemoine,Sander Goossens,Sander Goossens,Terence J. Sabaka,Joseph B. Nicholas,Erwan Mazarico,Erwan Mazarico,David D. Rowlands,Bryant D. Loomis,Douglas S. Chinn,Gregory A. Neumann,David E. Smith,Maria T. Zuber +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, a gravity field solution in spherical harmonics to degree and order 900, GRGM900C, was derived from the tracking data of the Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory (GRAIL) Primary (1 March to 29 May 2012) and Extended Missions (30 August to 14 December 2012).

TL;DR: Observations from the GRAIL mission indicate a marked change in the gravitational signature of lunar impact structures at the morphological transition, with increasing diameter, from complex craters to peak-ring basins, and a correlation between the diameter of the central Bouguer gravity high and the outer topographic ring diameter enables the identification and characterization of well-preserved basins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crossover analysis of Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter data
TL;DR: In this paper, a quasiperiodic, once per revolution adjustment of the ground tracks as a function of time in three locally orthogonal directions minimizes the altimetric residuals via least squares.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ancient Igneous Intrusions and Early Expansion of the Moon Revealed by GRAIL Gravity Gradiometry
Jeffrey C. Andrews-Hanna,Sami W. Asmar,James W. Head,Walter S. Kiefer,Alexander S. Konopliv,Frank G. Lemoine,Isamu Matsuyama,Erwan Mazarico,Erwan Mazarico,Patrick J. McGovern,H. Jay Melosh,Gregory A. Neumann,Francis Nimmo,Roger J. Phillips,David E. Smith,Sean C. Solomon,Sean C. Solomon,G. Jeffrey Taylor,Mark A. Wieczorek,James G. Williams,Maria T. Zuber +20 more
TL;DR: The Moon's gravity map shows that the crust is cut by extensive magmatic dikes, perhaps implying a period of early expansion, and application of gravity gradiometry to observations by the GRAIL mission results in the identification of a population of linear gravity anomalies with lengths of hundreds of kilometers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seasonal and static Gravity Field of Mars from MGS, Mars Odyssey and MRO Radio Science
Antonio Genova,Antonio Genova,Sander Goossens,Sander Goossens,Frank G. Lemoine,Erwan Mazarico,Gregory A. Neumann,David E. Smith,Maria T. Zuber +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a spherical harmonic solution of the static gravity field of Mars to degree and order 120, GMM-3, that has been calculated using the Deep Space Network tracking data of the NASA Mars missions, Mars Global Surveyor (MGS), Mars Odyssey (ODY), and the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO).
