Pluto’s ephemeris from ground-based stellar occultations (1988–2016) [PDF]
Context. From 1988 to 2016, several stellar occultations have been observed to characterise Pluto’s atmosphere and its evolution. From each stellar occultation, an accurate astrometric position of Pluto at the observation epoch is derived.

The fettered and the flea: a new poem by Edmund Waller☆
Abstract This contribution explores for the first time a 22‐line poem in a British Library manuscript, ‘To a young lady that kept a flea chay'nd in a box’, which can be convincingly ascribed to Edmund Waller. Its most famous relative is Donne's ‘The Flea’, but its ancestry differs.

Seasonality and Albedo Dependence of Cloud Radiative Forcing in the Upper Colorado River Basin
Abstract Mountains create and enhance their own clouds, which both scatter and absorb shortwave radiation from the sun and absorb and re‐emit land surface and atmospheric longwave radiation. However, the impacts of clouds on the surface radiation balance in high elevation snowy mountain terrain are poorly explored.

The orbit of Triton with new precise observations and the INPOP19a ephemeris
Aims. The Gaia catalogue brings new opportunities and challenges to high-precision astronomy and astrometry. The precision of data reduction is therefore improved by a large number of reference stars with high-precision positions and proper motions ...

Saturn's Small‐Scale Winds Revealed by Its High‐Degree Gravity Field
Abstract During its Grand Finale, the Cassini spacecraft collected crucial gravity data, revealing Saturn's low‐degree gravity harmonics and large‐scale zonal winds extending about 8,000 km deep. However, determining the high‐degree gravity field, essential for understanding small‐scale atmospheric dynamics, is challenging due to the limited spatial ...

Impact of the precise ephemeris on accuracy of GNSS baseline in relative positioning technique
For advanced geodesy tasks that require high-accuracy, such as tectonics, surveying services usually use not only long-baselines but also the duration of tracking GNSS satellites in a long (e.g., 24/7).

Ephemeris refinement of 21 hot Jupiter exoplanets with high timing uncertainties [PDF]
Transit events of extrasolar planets offer a wealth of information for planetary characterization. However, for many known targets, the uncertainty of their predicted transit windows prohibits an accurate scheduling of follow-up observations.
