The previous version of the file was pck00009.tpc That file was published March 3 2010. This version incorporates data from reference [1]. This file contains size, shape, and orientation data for all objects covered by the previous version of the file. New objects covered by this file but not the previous version are: Anthe Daphnis Davida Lutetia Methone Pallas Pallene Polydeuces Steins Disclaimer -------------------------------------------------------- Applicability of Data This P_constants file may not contain the parameter values that you prefer. NAIF suggests that you inspect this file visually before proceeding with any critical or extended data processing. File Modifications by Users Note that this file may be readily modified by you to change values or add/delete parameters. NAIF requests that you update the "by line," date, version description section, and file name if you modify this file. A user-modified file should be thoroughly tested before being published or otherwise distributed. P_constants files must conform to the standards described in the two SPICE technical reference documents: PCK Required Reading Kernel Required Reading Known Limitations and Caveats Accuracy -------- In general, the orientation models given here are claimed by the IAU Working Group Report [1] to be accurate to 0.1 degree ([1], p.158). However, NAIF notes that orientation models for natural satellites and asteroids have in some cases changed substantially with the availability of new observational data, so users are urged to investigate the suitability for their applications of the models presented here. Earth orientation ----------------- NAIF strongly cautions against using the earth rotation model (from [1]), corresponding to the SPICE reference frame name IAU_EARTH, for work demanding high accuracy. This model has been determined by NAIF to have an error in the prime meridian location of magnitude at least 150 arcseconds, with a local minimum occurring during the year 1999. Regarding availability of better earth orientation data for use with the SPICE system: Earth orientation data are available from NAIF in the form of binary earth PCK files. These files provide orientation data for the ITRF93 (terrestrial) reference frame relative to the ICRF. NAIF employs an automated process to create these files; each time JPL's Tracking Systems and Applications Section produces a new earth orientation parameter (EOP) file, a new PCK is produced. These PCKs cover a roughly 10 year time span starting at Jan. 1, 2000. In these PCK files, the following effects are accounted for in modeling the earth's rotation: - Precession: 1976 IAU model - Nutation: 1980 IAU model, plus interpolated EOP nutation corrections - Polar motion: interpolated from EOP file - True sidereal time: UT1 - UT1R (if needed): given by analytic formula + TAI - UT1 (or UT1R): interpolated from EOP file + UT1 - GMST: given by analytic formula + equation of equinoxes: given by analytic formula where TAI = International Atomic Time UT1 = Greenwich hour angle of computed mean sun - 12h UT1R = Regularized UT1 GMST = Greenwich mean sidereal time These kernels are available from the NAIF web site http://naif.jpl.nasa.gov (follow the links to Data, generic_kernels, and PCK data) or ftp://naif.jpl.nasa.gov/pub/naif/generic_kernels/pck or via anonymous ftp from the server naif.jpl.nasa.gov The kernels are in the path pub/naif/generic_kernels/pck At this time, these kernels have file names of the form earth_000101_yymmdd_yymmdd.bpc The first date in the file name, meaning 2000 January 1, is the file's coverage begin time. The second and third dates are, respectively, the file's coverage end time and the epoch of the last datum. These binary PCK files are very accurate (error < 0.1 microradian) for epochs preceding the epoch of the last datum. For later epochs, the error rises to several microradians. Binary PCK files giving accurate earth orientation from 1972 to 2007 and *low accuracy* predicted earth orientation from 2007 to 2037 are also available in the same location. See the aareadme.txt file at the "pck" URL above for details. Characteristics and names of the binary kernels described here are subject to change. See the "pck" URL above for information on current binary earth PCKs. Lunar orientation ----------------- The lunar orientation formula provided by this file is a trigonometric polynomial approximation yielding the orientation of the lunar "Mean Earth/Polar Axis" (ME) reference frame. The SPICE reference frame name corresponding to this model is IAU_MOON. A more accurate approximation can be obtained by using both the NAIF lunar frame kernel and the binary lunar orientation PCK file. These files provide orientation data for the both the Mean Earth/Polar Axis frame, which has the SPICE name MOON_ME, and the Lunar Principal Axes frame, which has the SPICE name MOON_PA. These files are available on the NAIF web site (see URLs above) and in the NAIF server's ftp area. The lunar frame kernel is located in the path pub/naif/generic_kernels/fk/satellites and has a name of the form moon_yymmdd.tf The binary lunar PCK is in the path pub/naif/generic_kernels/pck and has a name of the form moon_pa_dennn_yyyy-yyyy.bpc See the "aareadme.txt" files in the paths shown above for details on file contents and versions. We also suggest you refer to the SPICE tutorial named "lunar_earth_pck-fk," which is available from the NAIF web site. Earth geomagnetic dipole ------------------------ The SPICE Toolkit doesn't currently contain software to model the earth's north geomagnetic centered dipole as a function of time. As a convenience for users, the north dipole location from the epoch 2012.0 was selected as a representative datum, and the planetocentric longitude and latitude of this location have been associated with the keywords BODY399_N_GEOMAG_CTR_DIPOLE_LON BODY399_N_GEOMAG_CTR_DIPOLE_LAT Values for the earth's north geomagnetic centered dipole are presented in comments as a discrete time series for the time range 1945-2000. For details concerning the geomagnetic field model from which these values were derived, including a discussion of the model's accuracy, see [9] and [11]. Prime meridian offsets ---------------------- Prime meridian offset kernel variables, which have names of the form BODYnnn_LONG_AXIS are not used by SPICE geometry software. These variables should be considered deprecated; however, they will be retained for backwards compatibility. Users wishing to specify an offset reflecting the orientation of a reference ellipsoid relative to a body-fixed reference frame specified here should do so by creating a constant-offset frame (also called a "TK" frame) specification. See the Frames Required Reading frames.req for details. The Mars prime meridian offset given by [5] is provided for informational purposes only. Software limitations -------------------- SPICE Toolkits prior to version N0057 cannot make use of trigonometric polynomial terms in the formulas for orientation of the planets. The second nutation precession angle (M2) for Mars is represented by a quadratic polynomial in the 2006 IAU report. The SPICELIB subroutine BODEUL can not handle this term (which is extremely small), so we truncate the polynomial to a linear one. The resulting orientation error has a maximum magnitude of less than 0.0032 degrees over the time span 1996-2015 and less than 0.0082 degrees over the time span 1986-2025.

Discussion URL: http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/IAGA/vmod/igrf.html Coefficients URL: http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/IAGA/vmod/igrf11coeffs.txt Most values are from [1]. All exceptions are commented where they occur in this file. The exceptions are: -- Radii for the Sun are from [4]. -- Prime meridian constant (W0) terms for Pluto, Charon, and Ida are from [2]. -- The second nutation precession angle (M2) for Mars is represented by a quadratic polynomial in the 2000 IAU report. The SPICELIB subroutine BODEUL can not handle this term (which is extremely small), so we truncate the polynomial to a linear one. -- Earth north geomagnetic centered dipole values are from [11]. The values were also computed from the 11th generation IGRF by Nat Bachman. "Old values" listed are from the SPICE P_constants file pck00009.tpc dated March 3, 2010. Most of these values came from the 2006 IAU report [3]. Explanatory Notes -------------------------------------------------------- This file, which is logically part of the SPICE P-kernel, contains constants used to model the orientation, size and shape of the Sun, planets, natural satellites, and selected comets and asteroids. The orientation models express the direction of the pole and location of the prime meridian of a body as a function of time. The size/shape models ("shape models" for short) represent all bodies as ellipsoids, using two equatorial radii and a polar radius. Spheroids and spheres are obtained when two or all three radii are equal. The SPICE Toolkit routines that use this file are documented in the SPICE "Required Reading" file pck.req. They are also documented in the "PCK" SPICE tutorial, which is available on the NAIF web site. File Format A terse description of the PCK file format is given here. See the SPICE "Required Reading" files pck.req and kernel.req for a detailed explanation of the SPICE text kernel file format. The files pck.req and kernel.req are included in the documentation provided with the SPICE Toolkit. The file starts out with the ``ID word'' string KPL/PCK This string identifies the file as a text kernel containing PCK data. This file consists of a series of comment blocks and data blocks. Comment blocks, which contain free-form descriptive or explanatory text, are preceded by a \begintext token. Data blocks follow a \begindata token. In order to be recognized, each of these tokens must be placed on a line by itself. The portion of the file preceding the first data block is treated as a comment block; it doesn't require an initial \begintext token. This file identifies data using a series of KEYWORD = VALUE assignments. The left hand side of each assignment is a "kernel variable" name; the right hand side is an associated value or list of values. The SPICE subroutine API allows SPICE routines and user applications to retrieve the set of values associated with each kernel variable name. Kernel variable names are case-sensitive and are limited to 32 characters in length. Numeric values may be integer or floating point. String values are normally limited to 80 characters in length; however, SPICE provides a mechanism for identifying longer, "continued" strings. See the SPICE routine STPOOL for details. String values are single quoted. When the right hand side of an assignment is a list of values, the list items may be separated by commas or simply by blanks. The list must be bracketed by parentheses. Example: BODY399_RADII = ( 6378.1366 6378.1366 6356.7519 ) Any blanks preceding or following keyword names, values and equal signs are ignored. Assignments may be spread over multiple lines, for example: BODY399_RADII = ( 6378.1366 6378.1366 6356.7519 ) This file may contain blank lines anywhere. Non-printing characters including TAB should not be present in the file: the presence of such characters may cause formatting errors when the file is viewed. Time systems and reference frames The 2009 IAU Working Group Report [1] states the time scale used as the independent variable for the rotation formulas is Barycentric Dynamical Time (TDB) and that the epoch of variable quantities is J2000 TDB (2000 Jan 1 12:00:00 TDB, Julian ephemeris date 2451545.0 TDB). Throughout SPICE documentation and in this file, we use the names "J2000 TDB" and "J2000" for this epoch. The name "J2000.0" is equivalent. SPICE documentation refers to the time system used in this file as either "ET" or "TDB." SPICE software makes no distinction between TDB and the time system associated with the independent variable of the JPL planetary ephemerides T_eph. The inertial reference frame used for the rotational elements in this file is identified by [1] as the ICRF (International Celestial Reference Frame). The SPICE PCK software that reads this file uses the label "J2000" to refer to the ICRF; this is actually a mislabeling which has been retained in the interest of backward compatibility. Using data from this file, by means of calls to the SPICE frame transformation routines, will actually compute orientation relative to the ICRF. The difference between the J2000 frame and the ICRF is on the order of tens of milliarcseconds and is well below the accuracy level of the formulas in this file. Orientation models All of the orientation models use three Euler angles to describe the orientation of the coordinate axes of the "Body Equator and Prime Meridian" system with respect to an inertial system. By default, the inertial system is the ICRF (labeled as "J2000"), but other inertial frames can be specified in the file. See the PCK Required Reading for details. The first two angles, in order, are the ICRF right ascension and declination (henceforth RA and DEC) of the north pole of a body as a function of time. The third angle is the prime meridian location (represented by "W"), which is expressed as a rotation about the north pole, and is also a function of time. For each body, the expressions for the north pole's right ascension and declination, as well as prime meridian location, are sums (as far as the models that appear in this file are concerned) of quadratic polynomials and trigonometric polynomials, where the independent variable is time. In this file, the time arguments in expressions always refer to Barycentric Dynamical Time (TDB), measured in centuries or days past a reference epoch. By default, the reference epoch is the J2000 epoch, which is Julian ephemeris date 2451545.0 (2000 Jan 1 12:00:00 TDB), but other epochs can be specified in the file. See the PCK Required Reading for details. Orientation models for satellites and some planets (including Jupiter) involve both polynomial terms and trigonometric terms. The arguments of the trigonometric terms are linear polynomials. In this file, we call the arguments of these trigonometric terms "nutation precession angles." Example: 2009 IAU Model for orientation of Jupiter. Note that these values are used as an example only; see the data area below for current values. Right ascension --------------- alpha = 268.056595 - 0.006499 T + 0.000117 sin(Ja) 0 + 0.000938 sin(Jb) + 0.001432 sin(Jc) + 0.000030 sin(Jd) + 0.002150 sin(Je) Declination ----------- delta = 64.495303 + 0.002413 T + 0.000050 cos(Ja) 0 + 0.000404 cos(Jb) + 0.000617 cos(Jc) - 0.000013 cos(Jd) + 0.000926 cos(Je) Prime meridian -------------- W = 284.95 + 870.5366420 d Here T represents centuries past J2000 ( TDB ), d represents days past J2000 ( TDB ). Ja-Je are nutation precession angles. In this file, the polynomials' coefficients above are assigned to kernel variable names (left-hand-side symbols) as follows BODY599_POLE_RA = ( 268.056595 -0.006499 0. ) BODY599_POLE_DEC = ( 64.495303 0.002413 0. ) BODY599_PM = ( 284.95 870.5360000 0. ) and the trigonometric polynomials' coefficients are assigned as follows BODY599_NUT_PREC_RA = ( 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0.000117 0.000938 0.001432 0.000030 0.002150 ) BODY599_NUT_PREC_DEC = ( 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0.000050 0.000404 0.000617 -0.000013 0.000926 ) BODY599_NUT_PREC_PM = ( 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0. 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 ) Note the number "599"; this is the NAIF ID code for Jupiter. In this file, the polynomial expressions for the nutation precession angles are listed along with the planet's RA, DEC, and prime meridian terms. Below are the 2006 IAU nutation precession angles for the Jupiter system. J1 = 73.32 + 91472.9 T J2 = 24.62 + 45137.2 T J3 = 283.90 + 4850.7 T J4 = 355.80 + 1191.3 T J5 = 119.90 + 262.1 T J6 = 229.80 + 64.3 T J7 = 352.25 + 2382.6 T J8 = 113.35 + 6070.0 T J9 = 146.64 + 182945.8 T J10 = 49.24 + 90274.4 T Ja = 99.360714 + 4850.4046 T Jb = 175.895369 + 1191.9605 T Jc = 300.323162 + 262.5475 T Jd = 114.012305 + 6070.2476 T Je = 49.511251 + 64.3000 T Here T represents centuries past J2000 ( TDB ) J1-J10 and Ja-Je are the nutation precession angles. The angles J9 and J10 are equal to 2*J1 and 2*J2, respectively. Angles J9 and J10 are not present in [1]; they have been added to fit the terms 2*J1 and 2*J2, which appear in the orientation models of several satellites, into a form that can be accepted by the PCK system. The assignment of the nutation precession angles for the Jupiter system is as follows: BODY5_NUT_PREC_ANGLES = ( 73.32 91472.9 24.62 45137.2 283.90 4850.7 355.80 1191.3 119.90 262.1 229.80 64.3 352.25 2382.6 113.35 6070.0 146.64 182945.8 49.24 90274.4 99.360714 4850.4046 175.895369 1191.9605 300.323162 262.5475 114.012305 6070.2476 49.511251 64.3000 ) You'll see an additional symbol grouped with the ones listed above; it is BODY599_LONG_AXIS This is a deprecated feature; see the note on "Prime meridian offsets" under "Known Limitations and Caveats" above. The pattern of the formulas for satellite orientation is similar to that for Jupiter. Example: 2006 IAU values for Io. Again, these values are used as an example only; see the data area below for current values. Right ascension --------------- alpha = 268.05 - 0.009 T + 0.094 sin(J3) + 0.024 sin(J4) 0 Declination ----------- delta = 64.50 + 0.003 T + 0.040 cos(J3) + 0.011 cos(J4) 0 Prime meridian -------------- W = 200.39 + 203.4889538 d - 0.085 sin(J3) - 0.022 sin(J4) d represents days past J2000. J3 and J4 are nutation precession angles. The polynomial terms are assigned to symbols by the statements BODY501_POLE_RA = ( 268.05 -0.009 0. ) BODY501_POLE_DEC = ( 64.50 0.003 0. ) BODY501_PM = ( 200.39 203.4889538 0. ) The coefficients of the trigonometric terms are assigned to symbols by the statements BODY501_NUT_PREC_RA = ( 0. 0. 0.094 0.024 ) BODY501_NUT_PREC_DEC = ( 0. 0. 0.040 0.011 ) BODY501_NUT_PREC_PM = ( 0. 0. -0.085 -0.022 ) 501 is the NAIF ID code for Io. SPICE software expects the models for satellite orientation to follow the form of the model shown here: the polynomial portions of the RA, DEC, and W expressions are expected to be quadratic, the trigonometric terms for RA and W (satellite prime meridian) are expected to be linear combinations of sines of nutation precession angles, the trigonometric terms for DEC are expected to be linear combinations of cosines of nutation precession angles, and the polynomials for the nutation precession angles themselves are expected to be linear. Eventually, the software will handle more complex expressions, we expect. Shape models There is only one kind of shape model supported by the SPICE Toolkit software at present: the triaxial ellipsoid. The 2009 IAU report [1] does not use any other models, except in the case of Mars, where separate values are given for the north and south polar radii. In this file, we provide as a datum the mean Mars polar radius provided by [1]. The North and South values are included as comments. For each body, three radii are listed: The first number is the largest equatorial radius (the length of the semi-axis containing the prime meridian), the second number is the smaller equatorial radius, and the third is the polar radius. Example: Radii of the Earth.
