Harbingers of change: Towards a mechanistic understanding of anticipatory plasticity in animal systems

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Phenotypic plasticity is a strategy by which animals alter behaviour, morphology and/or physiology in response to cues of current conditions to cope with environmental heterogeneity.

A Post‐Launch Summary of the Science of NASA's Psyche Mission

open access: yesAGU Advances
Astronomical observations indicate that asteroid (16) Psyche is a large, high‐density (likely >3,400 kg·m−3), metal‐rich (30–55 vol. %) asteroid. Psyche may be remnant core material or it could be a primordial, undifferentiated metal‐rich object.

Post-Cataract Surgery Visual Disturbance in a Retinitis Pigmentosa Patient with Asteroid Hyalosis

open access: yesCase Reports in Ophthalmology, 2011
A patient with retinitis pigmentosa showed visual disturbances following successful cataract surgery. He had a dense asteroid hyalosis in the eye before cataract surgery. After the surgery he noticed that his vision became worse.

Pyroxene and Hydroxyl Signatures in Vesta Newly Calibrated Data from Dawn Mission

open access: yesUniverse, 2023
Thanks to the VIR spectrometer onboard NASA’s Dawn spacecraft, which orbited Vesta in 2011–2012, thousands of hyperspectral images of its surface have been collected.

The OSIRIS-REx Visible and InfraRed Spectrometer (OVIRS): Spectral Maps of the Asteroid Bennu [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The OSIRIS-REx Visible and Infrared Spectrometer (OVIRS) is a point spectrometer covering the spectral range of 0.4 to 4.3 microns (25,000–2300 cm−1). Its primary purpose is to map the surface composition of the asteroid Bennu, the target asteroid of the

Virility, fascism and regeneration in post‐Civil War Spain: On interpretations of literary Romanticism under the Franco regime

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
Abstract In the years immediately following the Spanish Civil War, the political culture of Falangism developed a deeply gendered regenerationist discourse, which proposed that regeneration would only be possible if the nation recovered its virile attributes.

Asteroid deflection and exploitation : possible synergies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The asteroid and cometary impact hazard has long been recognised as an important issue requiring risk assessment and contingency planning. At the same time asteroids have also been acknowledged as possible sources of raw materials for future large-scale ...

Immersion and Invariance Based Adaptive Backstepping Control for Body-Fixed Hovering Over an Asteroid

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
An adaptive control law is proposed in this paper for body-fixed hovering over an asteroid with an unknown gravity field and an unknown rotation rate. The unknown parameters and irregular shape of an asteroid make the hovering problem challenging.

Episodes of particle ejection from the surface of the active asteroid (101955) Bennu

open access: yesScience, 2019
Bennu ejects material from its surface Most asteroids appear inert, but remote observations show that a small number experience mass loss from their surfaces. Lauretta and Hergenrother et al.
