AbstractDynamical constants and other fundamental reference parameters for Mars have been derived from analyses of Viking lander ranging and Doppler tracking data covering a time span of nearly four years. Precise values have been obtained for the coordinates of the spin axis and for the rotation rate, suggesting that these Viking-derived values are definitive and are suitable for adoption by the IAU. Preliminary results have been obtained for a small seasonal variation in the rotation rate, and progress has been made toward a direct determination of the precession constant.

AbstractUsing the radio telescopes in Chinese VLBI Network and the K5/VSSP32 VLBI system of NICT in Japan, we have developed algorithms that can extract open loop Doppler information from the Chang'E-1 and Mars Express radio tracking data. Our latest results indicate the Doppler accuracy of open loop three-way Doppler is about 1mm/s in 1 second integration time, relative to a 8.4GHz carrier. In the forthcoming joint Russian-Chinese Martian mission in 2009, the current software algorithms and hardware performance will be improved, and we will attempt to use the high precision Doppler shift and phase information to test gravitation theories.
