A Unified Framework for Manipulating N-dimensional Astronomical Data and Coordinate Transformations in Python: The NDCube 2 and Astropy APE-14 World Coordinate System APIs

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The NDCube 2 API is a Python application programming interface (API) for storing and manipulating N-dimensional coordinate-aware astronomical data. While there are Python packages for handling astronomical data and coordinate transformations separately ...

FIRST STEPS TOWARDS OBTAINING CULTURAL ASTRONOMY SOFTWARE

open access: yes, 2018
A new software tool is introduced in this paper. It renders the local horizon for a terrestrial observer and the sky tracks of celestial objects that are of interest in cultural astronomy, with sufficient precision for historical times, by using open-source software tools and geographical data.

Reimplementing the Hierarchical Data System using HDF5

open access: yes, 2015
The Starlink Hierarchical Data System has been a very successful niche astronomy file format and library for over 30 years. Development of the library was frozen ten years ago when funding for Starlink was stopped and almost no-one remains who ...

Study of Free‐Space Optical Quantum Network: Review and Prospectives

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Free from the constraints of fiber connections, free‐space quantum network enables longer and more flexible quantum network connections. This review summarizes and comparatively analyzes free‐space quantum network experiments based on ground stations, satellites, and mobile platforms.

Astronomy Software Integration with OpenSpace

open access: yes, 2020
This thesis aimed to create a messaging protocol for OpenSpace to interoperate with other astronomy software. The goal was to create a messaging standard that was not language-dependent and could be implemented by any astronomy software. To establish an asynchronous communication between OpenSpace and connected software, the Transmission Control ...

INSA scientific activities in the space astronomy area

open access: yes, 2010
Support to Astronomy operations is an important and long-lived activity within INSA. Probably the best known (and traditional) INSA activities are those related with real-time spacecraft operations: Ground station maintenance and operation (Ground ...

Symmetry‐Driven Unconventional Magnetoelectric Coupling in Perovskite Altermagnets: From Bulk to the Two‐Dimensional Limit

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The symmetry‐driven coexistence of altermagnetism and (anti)ferroelectricity in perovskites shows a strong dimensional dependence. Upon reducing the system from bulk to the two‐dimensional limit, only C‐type antiferromagnetic order retains ferroelectrically switchable altermagnetism, whereas A‐ and G‐type orders become conventional antiferromagnets ...

Biomimetic Polymerization of Tellurocysteine: Breaking the Natural Amino Acid Radioprotection Limitation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by natural amino acid polymer‐melanin systems, this study strategically incorporated tellurocysteine to develop advanced radiation‐shielding materials. This approach transformed the primary interaction mechanism between melanin‐based materials and incident photons from Compton scattering to the photoelectric effect. Tellurocysteine‐polymerized
