A Mission to Test the Pioneer Anomaly
Analysis of the radio tracking data from the Pioneer 10/11 spacecraft has consistently indicated the presence of an anomalous small Doppler frequency drift. The drift can be interpreted as being due to a constant acceleration of aP = (8.74 ± 1.33) × 10 −8 cm/s directed towards the Sun. Although it is suspected that there is a systematic origin to the effect, none has been found. The nature of t...
متن کاملOptions for a Nondedicated Mission to Test the Pioneer Anomaly
The Doppler-tracking data of the Pioneer 10 and 11 spacecraft show an unmodelled constant acceleration in the direction of the inner Solar System. Serious efforts have been undertaken to find a conventional explanation for this effect, all without success at the time of writing. Hence the effect, commonly dubbed the Pioneer anomaly, is attracting considerable attention. Unfortunately, no other ...
متن کاملLessons Learned from the Pioneers 10/11 for A Mission to Test the Pioneer Anomaly
Analysis of the radio-metric tracking data from the Pioneer 10/11 spacecraft at distances between 20–70 astronomical units (AU) from the Sun has consistently indicated the presence of an anomalous, small, constant Doppler frequency drift. The drift is a blue-shift, uniformly changing with rate at = (2.92 ± 0.44) × 10 −18 s/s. It can also be interpreted as a constant acceleration of aP = (8.74±1...
متن کاملTesting for the Pioneer Anomaly on a Pluto Exploration Mission
The Doppler-tracking data of the Pioneer 10 and 11 spacecraft show an unmodelled constant acceleration in the direction of the inner Solar System. An overview of the phenomenon, commonly dubbed the Pioneer anomaly, is given and the possibility for an experimental test of the anomaly as a secondary goal of an upcoming space mission is discussed using a putative Pluto orbiter probe as a paradigm.

The Doppler-tracking data of the Pioneer 10 and 11 spacecraft show an unmodelled constant acceleration in the direction of the inner Solar System. Serious efforts have been undertaken to find a conventional explanation for this effect, all without success at the time we are writing.
