Measuring the Mass of Solar System Planets Using Pulsar Timing

Measuring the Mass of Solar System Planets Using Pulsar Timing

High-precision pulsar timing relies on a solar system ephemeris in order to convert times of arrival (TOAs) of pulses measured at an observatory to the solar system barycenter. Any error in the conversion to the barycentric TOAs leads to a systematic variation in the observed timing residuals; speci...
