โฆ Synopsis
A new approach is discussed for determination of lunar gravity parameters. Estimations were made with the line-of-sight (LOS) accelerations of artificial satellites. Tests indicate the advantages of such an approach over the classical one.

Lunar Laser Ranging data covering the interval from August 1969 to December 1987 were used to determine the seculer acceleration in the mean longitude of the Moon (12). In our analysis, the DE200/LE200 planets and lunar ephemerides were adopted for calculating the theoretical distance between the ob
The elastic thickness, T e , for various regions of Venus is estimated by comparing the observed line of sight (LOS) acceleration of the Magellan spacecraft with that predicted using a spherical harmonic representation of the topography, to degree and order 360. At long wavelengths (typically longer
