VLBI20-30: a scientific roadmap for the next decade — The future of the European VLBI Network

VLBI20-30: a scientific roadmap for the next decade — The future of the European VLBI Network This white paper describes the science case for Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) and provides suggestions towards upgrade paths for the European VLBI Network (EVN). The EVN is a distributed long-baseline radio interferometric array, that operates at the very

Assessment of DTRF2014 and ITRF2014 by Satellite Laser Ranging

Assessment of DTRF2014 and ITRF2014 by Satellite Laser Ranging Satellite laser ranging orbital solutions, using observations of satellites LAGEOS and LAGEOS-2 collected from 2000 to 2017, were used to test the performance of two reference frame realisations, ITRF2014 and DTRF2014.We compare the post-fit residuals from solutions where only initial conditions and orbit parameters were solved
