A global solution for the Mars static and seasonal gravity, Mars orientation, Phobos and Deimos masses, and Mars ephemeris
- A. S. Konopliv, C. Yoder, E. Standish, D. Yuan, W. Sjogren
- Physics
- 1 May 2006
Abstract With the collection of six years of MGS tracking data and three years of Mars Odyssey tracking data, there has been a continual improvement in the JPL Mars gravity field determination. This… Expand
Mars high resolution gravity fields from MRO, Mars seasonal gravity, and other dynamical parameters
- A. S. Konopliv, S. Asmar, +5 authors M. Zuber
- Geology
- 2011
Abstract With 2 years of tracking data collection from the MRO spacecraft, there is noticeable improvement in the high frequency portion of the spherical harmonic Mars gravity field. The new JPL Mars… Expand
The JPL lunar gravity field to spherical harmonic degree 660 from the GRAIL Primary Mission
- A. S. Konopliv, R. Park, +10 authors M. Zuber
- Physics
- 1 July 2013
[1] The lunar gravity field and topography provide a way to probe the interior structure of the Moon. Prior to the Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory (GRAIL) mission, knowledge of the lunar… Expand

An improved JPL Mars gravity field and orientation from Mars orbiter and lander tracking data
- A. S. Konopliv, R. Park, W. Folkner
- Geology
- 1 August 2016
Abstract The Mars gravity field resolution is mostly determined by the lower altitude Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) tracking data. With nearly four years of additional MRO and Mars Odyssey… Expand
Gravity field of Mars: A 75th Degree and Order Model
- D. Yuan, W. Sjogren, A. S. Konopliv, A. Kucinskas
- Geology
- 25 October 2001
Radiometric tracking data collected by NASA's Deep Space Network (DSN) for Mariner 9, Viking 1 and 2 orbiters, and Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) have been analyzed to determine the gravity field of… Expand
An Improved 360 Degree and Order Model of Venus Topography
- N. Rappaport, A. S. Konopliv, A. Kucinskas, P. Ford
- Physics
- 1 May 1999
We present an improved 360 degree and order spherical harmonic solution for Venus' topography. The new model uses the most recent set of Venus altimetry data with spacecraft positions derived from a… Expand
New constraints on Mars rotation determined from radiometric tracking of the Opportunity Mars Exploration Rover

- Geology
- 1 February 2014
Abstract The Opportunity Mars Exploration Rover remained stationary between January and May 2012 in order to conserve solar energy for running its survival heaters during martian winter. While… Expand
High-resolution lunar gravity fields from the GRAIL Primary and Extended Missions
- A. S. Konopliv, R. Park, +10 authors M. Zuber
- Physics
- 16 March 2014
The resolution and accuracy of the lunar spherical harmonic gravity field have been dramatically improved as a result of the Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory (GRAIL) mission. From the Primary… Expand
The topography and gravity of Mare Serenitatis: implications for subsidence of the mare surface
- T. Watters, A. S. Konopliv
- Geology
- 1 June 2001
Abstract The long wavelength topography of Mare Serenitatis was analyzed using topographic data obtained by the Clementine laser ranging instrument (LIDAR). The topography shows that the lowest… Expand
