In this contribution we describe the jet transport techniques that we used in Pérez-Hernández and Benet (2022) for the estimation of the Yarkovsky transversal acceleration for (99942) Apophis, which included optical and radar astrometry observations obtained during 2021 Apophis’ fly-by. Our numerical approach exploits automatic differentiation techniques which improve the orbital determination problem. We obtain a non-zero Yarkovsky parameter A2 = (−2.899±0.025) × 10−14 au d−2 which is consistent with other recent determinations of this parameter. Our results allow to constrain the collision probabilities for the close approaches in 2029, 2036 and 2068.
