    1960 Chile - New estimate of polar motion excitation (1989)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-19
    Description: A recent reanalysis of the International Latitude Serivce (ILS) polar motion data-day has been processed using Kalman filtering techniques to generate the polar motion excitation function over the time-span from 1960 to 1965. The resulting excitation function has been examined for the effects of 1960 Chile in an attempt to determine experimentally how large earthquake affect polar motion. The resulting upper bound of about 75 x 10 to the 22nd N-m for a 10-deg dip (about 36 x 10 to the 22nd N-m for 20-deg dip) is consistent with results obtained from previous seismic studies, including a recent normal mode excitation result. Following future great earthquakes, monitoring of polar motion by space-based techniques such as VLBI should continue at high temporal resolution for several weeks in order to directly measure the rheological parameters of the upper mantle.

    The dynamics of coorbital satellite systems (1988)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-19
    Description: The dynamical behavior of N coorbital satellites moving with the same average mean motion around a primary has been studied both analytically and by numerical integrations for N from 2 to 9 satellites. Simplified dynamical equations are used to determine the different stationary configurations and their local stability against infinitesimal perturbations. The ring of equally spaced identical satellites is found to be locally unstable for N of six or less, while for N from two to eight there exists another stable compact stationary configuration with separations of 60 deg or less between adjacent satellites. For N of seven or more the equally spaced configuration becomes locally stable, and for N of nine or more it is the only stationary configuration. The motion becomes chaotic for large-amplitude perturbations. The chaotic motion fills a restricted region of phase space whose outer boundary is determined by the maximum velocity curve.

    Orbits and masses of Saturn's co-orbiting satellites, Janus and Epimetheus (1989)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-19
    Description: An attempt is made to provide a constraint on the combined mass of Janus and Epimetheus from an analysis of Voyager I and Voyager 2 data and ground-based observations obtained during the 1966 and 1980 ring plane crossings. The results of the analysis presented here suggest that the total mass is 2.59 + or - 0.26 x 10 to the 21st g, the mass ratio is 3.61 + or - 0.01, and Janus' density is 0.67 + or - 0.10 g/cu cm. The low density of Janus is attributed to its porosity rather than composition.

    Improved analytic nutation model (1988)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: Models describing the earth's nutations are discussed. It is found that the simple model of Sasao et al., (1981) differs from Wahr's (1981) theory term by term by less than 0.3 marcsec if a modern earth structure model is used to evaluate the nutation structure constants. In addition, the effect of oceans is estimated.

    Dynamics of coorbital satellite rings (1988)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: The dynamical behavior of a coorbital satellite ring is studied for N = 2-9 satellites, in terms of a simplified dynamical description, in which the motion is reduced to the separation angles between satellites. The number and stability of different kinds of stationary configurations is explored, revealing that equally spaced rings are not stable against small perturbations for N not greater than 6, while for N = 2-8 there exists another, stable compact solution. Integrations of exact equations confirm these results. Moreover, the systems are found to display chaotic characteristics for a certain range of energy. The behavior can be interpreted in terms of maximum velocity curves, defining the allowed region of the motion in the phase space.
