Revised Ephemerides of the Martian Satellites, Phobos and Deimos

We report on the new ephemerides (MAR099) for the satellites of Mars derived from a large set of ground-based and spacecraft astrometric measurements. Our integrated orbit fit yielded latest estimates for the Martian tidal parameter τ = k _2 / Q = 1.816 ± 0.084 × 10 ^−3 and half the tidal accelerati...
