Jacobson, R.A., SPK file sat186 Implementation Notes ---------------------------------------------------------- This file is used by the SPICE system as follows: programs that make use of this frame kernel must `load' the kernel, normally during program initialization. Loading the kernel associates data items with their names in a data structure called the `kernel pool'. The SPICELIB routine FURNISH loads a kernel file into the pool as shown below: CALL FURNSH ( ) FORTRAN version furnish_c (); C version In order for a program or subroutine to extract data from the pool, the SPICELIB routines GDPOOL and GIPOOL are used. See [2] for more details. This file was created and may be updated with a text editor or word processor. Assumptions ---------------------------------------------------------- This file contains constants used to model the orientation and shape of satellites. The orientation models express the direction of the pole and location of the prime meridian of a body as a function of time. The shape models 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. Orientation models ---------------------------------------------------------- All of the orientation models use three Euler angles to describe body orientation. To be precise, the Euler angles 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 J2000 (also called `EME2000'), but other frames can be specified in the file. See the PCK Required Reading for details. The first two angles, in order, are the 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. In this file, the time arguments in expressions always refer to Barycentric Dynamical Time (TDB), measured in centuries or days past the a reference epoch. By default, the reference epoch is the J2000 epoch, which is Julian ephemeris date 2451545.0, but other epochs can be specified in the file. See the PCK Required Reading for details. Example: 1991 IAU Model for orientation of the Earth. Note that these values are used as an example only; see the data area below for current values. alpha = 0.00 - 0.641 T ( RA ) 0 delta = 90.0 - 0.557 T ( DEC ) 0 W = 190.16 + 360.9856235 d ( Prime meridian ) T represents centuries past J2000 ( TDB ), d represents days past J2000 ( TDB ). In this file, the polynomials' coefficients above are assigned to the symbols BODY399_POLE_RA BODY399_POLE_DEC BODY399_POLE_PM as follows: BODY399_POLE_RA = ( 0. -0.641 0. ) BODY399_POLE_DEC = ( +90. -0.557 0. ) BODY399_PM = ( 190.16 +360.9856235 0. ) You'll see an additional symbol grouped with the ones listed here; it is BODY399_LONG_AXIS This term is zero for all bodies except Mars. It represents the offset between the longest axis of the triaxial ellipsoid used to model a body and the prime meridian of the body. In addition to polynomial terms, there are 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'. In this file, the polynomial expressions for the nutation precession angles are listed along with the planet's RA, DEC, and prime meridian terms. Example: 1991 IAU nutation precession angles for Earth. Note that these values are used as an example only; see the data area below for current values. E1 = 125.045 - 0.052992 d E2 = 250.090 - 0.105984 d E3 = 260.008 + 13.012001 d E4 = 176.625 + 13.340716 d E5 = 357.529 + 0.985600 d d represents days past J2000 ( TDB ) Because the NAIF Toolkit software expects the time units for the angles to be CENTURIES (as in the IAU models for most bodies--the Earth is an exception), the linear coefficients are scaled by 36525.0 in the assignments: BODY3_NUT_PREC_ANGLES = ( 125.045 -1935.5328 250.090 -3871.0656 260.008 475263.336525 176.625 487269.6519 357.529 35999.04 ) As stated above, the satellite orientation models use polynomial and trigonometric terms, where the arguments of the trigonometric terms are the `nutation precession angles'. Example: 1988 IAU values for the Moon. Again, these values are used as an example only; see the data area below for current values. alpha = 270.000 + 0.003 T - 3.878 sin(E1) - 0.120 sin(E2) 0 + 0.070 sin(E3) - 0.017 sin(E4) (RA) delta = 66.541 + 0.013 T + 1.543 cos(E1) + 0.024 cos(E2) 0 - 0.028 cos(E3) + 0.007 cos(E4) (DEC) W = 38.317 + 13.1763582 d + 3.558 sin(E1) + 0.121 sin(E2) - 0.064 sin(E3) + 0.016 sin(E4) + 0.025 sin(E5) ( Prime meridian ) d represents days past J2000. E1--E5 are the nutation precession angles. The polynomial terms are assigned to symbols by the statements BODY301_POLE_RA = ( 270.000 0.003 0. ) BODY301_POLE_DEC = ( +66.541 0.013 0. ) BODY301_PM = ( 38.317 +13.1763582 0. ) The coefficients of the trigonometric terms are assigned to symbols by the statements BODY301_NUT_PREC_RA = ( -3.878 -0.120 +0.070 -0.017 0. ) BODY301_NUT_PREC_DEC = ( +1.543 +0.024 -0.028 +0.007 0. ) BODY301_NUT_PREC_PM = ( +3.558 +0.121 -0.064 +0.016 +0.025 ) Note that for the RA and PM (prime meridian) assignments, the ith term is the coefficient of sin(Ei) in the expression used in the IAU model, while for the DEC assignment, the ith term is the coefficient of cos(Ei) in the expression used in the IAU model. NAIF 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. Shape models ---------------------------------------------------------- There is only one kind of shape model supported by the NAIF Toolkit software at present: the triaxial ellipsoid. The 2000 IAU report does not use any other models. 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.

Body fixed frames are reference frames that do not move with respect to ``surface'' features of an object. Note that body fixed frames do move with respect to inertial frames. Information about how these frames are changing with respect to inertial frames is stored in the corresponding SPICE PCK file. Implementation Notes ---------------------------------------------------------- This file is used by the SPICE system as follows: programs that make use of this frame kernel must `load' the kernel, normally during program initialization. Loading the kernel associates data items with their names in a data structure called the `kernel pool'. The SPICELIB routine LDPOOL loads a kernel file into the pool as shown below: CALL LDPOOL ( frame_kernel_name ) In order for a program or subroutine to extract data from the pool, the SPICELIB routines GDPOOL and GIPOOL are used. See [2] for more details. This file was created and may be updated with a text editor or word processor. Assumptions ---------------------------------------------------------- This file assigns frame names to the satellites that are defined by the corresponding PCK file. Any changes to this file must be consistent with the PCK file. Use ---------------------------------------------------------- Several user-level SPICE routines require that the user supply the name of a reference frame as one of the inputs to the routine. The most important of these are the routines SPKEZ and SPKEZR. These routines return the state (position and velocity) of one object relative to another in a user specified reference frame. The choice of reference frame often makes a big difference in the usefulness of a returned state. If the state is relative to a suitable reference frame, computations involving that state can be much simpler than if the state were returned relative to some other reference frame. The SPICE frame subsystem allows you to easily transform states from one reference frame to another. Usually this can be done without needing to know all of the details of how the transformation is carried out. This allows you to concentrate on questions more closely related to the problem you are trying to solve instead of the details of how to get information in the frame of interest. NAIF requests that you update the `by line' and date if you modify this file.
