Precise Orbit Determination of Mars-crossing Asteroids

This study investigates the orbit determination of the Mars-crossing asteroids (MCAs) with a focus on the possibility of detecting their Yarkovsky signals. We analyze the influences of force model uncertainties on MCA orbits, including the uncertainty of the main asteroid belt, and the uncertainty o...
