On the possible use of Phobos Grunt's radio-science data after landing on Phobos

, 2011
International audiencePhobos Grunt spacecraft is expected to stay one year at the surface of Phobos. Thanks to 2-way Doppler data, this will be an opportunity to track Phobos satellite with an unprecedented accuracy.

Phobos Mobility Simulation [PDF]

, 2015
Phobos, the larger of Mars' moons, provides a potential staging location for human exploration of the Martian surface. Its low gravity (about 1/200th of Earth) and lack of atmosphere makes it an attractive destination before a more complex human landing ...

Revised Ephemerides of the Martian Satellites, Phobos and Deimos

The Astronomical Journal
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 ±
