A Solar System Survey of Forced Librations in Longitude

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a survey of expected libration amplitudes for a subset of solar system bodies, identifying those bodies with amplitudes likely to be detectable, and commenting on spin state, and radial structure implications.

The PHEMU15 catalogue and astrometric results of the Jupiter's Galilean satellite mutual occultation and eclipse observations made in 2014-2015

Eléonore Saquet, +119 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focused on processing the complete photometric observations data base to compute new accurate astrometric positions from the light curves of the mutual occultations and eclipses.

Chaotic orbit determination in the context of the JUICE mission

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the results of simulations using JUICE data from two different experiments (3GM and PRIDE) and perform a simultaneous estimation of the spacecraft and Galilean satellites' orbits, along with some dynamical parameters of interest.

A semi-analytical model of the Galilean satellites’ dynamics

TL;DR: In this article, the resonant and secular motion of the Galilean satellites through a Hamiltonian, depending on the slow angles only, obtained with an analytical expansion of the perturbing functions and an averaging operation.

New Estimation of Usually Neglected Forces Acting on Galilean System

TL;DR: In this paper, small perturbations acting on Galilean satellites were studied and a numerical method was used to test the effect of such perturbation on the ephemeris of these satellites.

Observational detection of eclipses of J5 Amalthea by the Galilean satellites

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors carried out observations of the small jovian satellite Amalthea (J5) as it was being eclipsed by the Galilean satellites near the 2009 equinox of Jupiter in order to apply the technique of mutual event photometry to the astrometric determination of this satellite's position.

Planetary Radio Interferometry and Doppler Experiment (PRIDE) for the JUICE mission

TL;DR: The Joint Institute for VLBI in Europe, Dwingeloo, The Netherlands; Department of Astrodynamics and Space Missions, Delft University of Technology and Delft Institute for Sea Research (NIOZ).
