| contents | One of the main bottleneck in assessing the accuracy of Mars orbit is the unknown value of the asteroids in the Main Asteroid Belt. Nowadays a modeling with 343 asteroids as point masses is used, with the relative masses fitted to observational data. In the current work we propose an innovative methodology to reduce the number of asteroids implemented as point masses, thus reducing the number of parameters to be fitted, without a significant degradation of the postfit residuals. |
