Abstract

Computer simulation results are reported for planned lunar-based observations to be conducted using an automated zenith telescope that can be placed at any lunar latitude. Benefits of lunar-based observations are shown, in comparison with lunar laser ranging. It is investigated whether, and how effectively, these observations can be used to determine the lunar rotation parameters (physical libration). The accuracy requirements for these observations are analyzed in view of the accuracy requirements for determining the lunar rotation parameters. The necessary number of telescopes, as well as their optimal locations, is assessed.

基于月球的月球物质运动测量：方法和精度估算

摘要

据报告，计算机模拟结果用于计划进行的基于月球的观测，该观测将使用可放置在任意月球纬度的自动天顶望远镜进行。与月球激光测距相比，显示了基于月球观测的好处。研究了这些观察是否以及如何有效地用于确定月球旋转参数（物理释放）。考虑到确定月球旋转参数的精度要求，对这些观测的精度要求进行了分析。评估必要数量的望远镜及其最佳位置。
