Dawn Vesta Gravity Models
Status: Archived
This data set contains archival results from gravity investigations
conducted during the Dawn mission while the spacecraft was in orbit
around the asteroid Vesta. Radio measurements were made using the
Dawn spacecraft and Earth-based stations of the NASA Deep Space
Network (DSN). The data set includes a spherical harmonic model
of Vesta's gravity field generated by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory,
radial gravity acceleration map, and Bouguer map; these results were
derived from raw radio tracking data.
