Titan's gravity field and interior structure after Cassini
Icarus(2019)
Abstract
Since its arrival at Saturn in 2004, Cassini performed nine flybys devoted to the determination of Titan's gravity field and its tidal variations. Here we present an updated gravity solution based on the final data set collected during the gravity-dedicated passes, before Cassini's plunge into Saturn's atmosphere. The data set includes an additional flyby (T110, March 2015, primarily devoted to imaging Titan's north polar lakes) carried out with the low-gain antenna. This flyby was particularly valuable because the closest approach occurred at a high latitude (75°N), over an area not previously sampled.
