Diagnostics to support mycetoma management—Development of two target product profiles
Abstract Objective Mycetoma is a neglected tropical disease caused by more than 70 different microorganisms and identified by the WHO as one of the high‐priority diseases for developing diagnostic tests. To ensure the production of diagnostic assays for use by clinical staff in endemic regions, target product profiles (TPPs) were designed.

Asteroids and comets are remnants from the era of Solar System formation over 4.5 billion years ago, and therefore allow us to address two fundamental questions in astronomy: what was the nature of our protoplanetary disk, and how did the process of planetary accretion occur?

Period-Multiplying Bifurcations in the Gravitational Field of Asteroids
Periodic orbit families around asteroids serve as potential trajectories for space probes, mining facilities, and deep space stations. Bifurcations of these families provide additional candidate orbits for efficient trajectory design around asteroids ...

Research of resonant motion of Apollo asteroids with inner planets
We study the resonant motion of Apollo asteroids with inner planets (Venus, Earth, Mars). It is shown that 1760 among 2026 Apollo asteroids move in resonance with one, two or three inner planets.

Photometric observations of six asteroids carried out in Simeiz in 2002
The photometric observations of six asteroids observed in Simeiz Observatory in 2002 are presented. The lightcurves of four near-Earth asteroids (1036 Ganymed, 6455 1992 HE, 31669 1999 JT6, 2002 HU11) and two main-belt asteroids (6317 Dreyfus and 22338 ...

Measuring the Orbit Drift of Near-Earth Asteroids by the Yarkovsky Effect
The Yarkovsky effect causes the semimajor axis drift of near-Earth asteroids. The drift can be detected by a precise orbit determination process. Using the proposed algorithm, 2233 out of 27,078 near-Earth asteroids are chosen as the initial candidates ...

Combining asteroid models derived by lightcurve inversion with asteroidal occultation silhouettes [PDF]
Asteroid sizes can be directly measured by observing occultations of stars by asteroids. When there are enough observations across the path of the shadow, the asteroid's projected silhouette can be reconstructed. Asteroid shape models derived from photometry by the lightcurve inversion method enable us to predict the orientation of an asteroid for the ...

ASTEROIDS EXPLORATION WITH BALDONE SCHMIDT TELE-SCOPE
CCD observations of asteroids were ob-tained in 2008 with the Baldone Schmidt telescope (aper-ture/diameter/focal length = 80/120/240 cm) at the Bal-done Astrophysical observatory (code 069) of the Institute of Astronomy of the University of Latvia.

V-type Asteroids as the Origin of Mesosiderites
We present the results of a campaign of hypervelocity impact experiments on natural mesosiderite targets, using representative main asteroid belt impact speeds. The objective is to document further the surface evolution of iron-rich asteroids.
