A numerical comparison of spherical, spheroidal and ellipsoidal harmonic gravitational field models for small non-spherical bodies: examples for the Martian moons
We present a comprehensive numerical analysis of spherical, spheroidal, and ellipsoidal harmonic series for gravitational field modeling near small moderately irregular bodies, such as the Martian moons. Our results show that for the Martian moons and other such moderately irregular bodies, the ellipsoidal harmonic series should be considered preferentially for gravitational field modeling.
