Gravity tests with INPOP planetary ephemerides
Abstract
In this paper, we present several gravity tests made in using the last INPOP08 planetary ephemerides. We first propose two methods to estimate the PPN parameter β and its correlated value, the Sun J2 and we discuss the correlation between the Sun J2 and the mass of the asteroid ring. We estimate possible advance in the planet perihelia. In the end we show that no constant acceleration larger than 1/4 the Pioneer anomaly can affect the planets of our solar system.
