The atmosphere of Titan: An analysis of the Voyager 1 radio occultation measurements
- G. F. Lindal, G. Wood, H. B. Hotz, D. Sweetnam, V. Eshleman, G. Tyler
- Physics
- 1 June 1981
Abstract Two coherently related radio signals transmitted from Voyager 1 at wavelengths of 13 cm (S-band) and 3.6 cm (X-band) were used to probe the equatorial atmosphere of Titan. The measurements… Expand
Internal structure and early thermal evolution of Mars from Mars Global Surveyor topography and gravity.

- 10 March 2000
Topography and gravity measured by the Mars Global Surveyor have enabled determination of the global crust and upper mantle structure of Mars. The planet displays two distinct crustal zones that do… Expand
Saturn's rings: Particle size distributions for thin layer models
Abstract The small physical thickness of Saturn's rings requires that radio occultation observations be interpreted using scattering models with limited amounts of multiple scatter. A new model in… Expand
