Light propagation in the field of a moving axisymmetric body: Theory and applications to the Juno mission
Light propagation in the field of a moving axisymmetric body: Theory and applications to the Juno mission
Given the extreme accuracy of modern space science, a precise relativistic modeling of observations is required. We use the time transfer function formalism to study light propagation in the field of uniformly moving axisymmetric bodies, which extends the field of application of previous works. We first present a space-time metric …
