A Review of Requirements for Gamma Radiation Detection in Space Using CubeSats

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Initially intended as student-led projects at universities and research institutions, the CubeSats now represent a unique opportunity to access space quickly and in a cost-effective fashion. CubeSats are standard and miniaturized satellites consisting of

A Novel, Low-Cost, Position-Sensitive Neutron Detector to Support Thick-Target Inverse Kinematics Experiments for Nuclear Data Measurements

open access: yesUniverse, 2023
High quality nuclear data lie at the heart of accurately modelling stellar systems and terrestrial nuclear reactors. However, some key reaction cross sections have large uncertainties, which limit such models in predicting isotopic abundances and other ...

The Mg/Fe ratio of silicate minerals in the meteoritic materials and in the circumstellar environment: A case study for the chondritic-like composition

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2021
Kaba meteorite as a reference material (one of a least metamorphosed and most primitive carbonaceous chondrites fell on Earth) was chosen for this study providing an adequate background for study of the protoplanetary disk or even the crystallization ...

HCnH Anion Chains with n ≤ 8 Are Nonlinear and Their Permanent Dipole Makes Them Potential Candidates for Astronomical Observation

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
To be detectable in space via radio astronomy, molecules should have a permanent dipole moment. This is the plausible reason why HCnH chains are underproportionally represented in the interstellar medium in comparison with the isoelectronically ...

Visible Shapes of Black Holes M87* and SgrA*

open access: yesUniverse, 2020
We review the physical origins for possible visible images of the supermassive black hole M87* in the galaxy M87 and SgrA* in the Milky Way Galaxy. The classical dark black hole shadow of the maximal size is visible in the case of luminous background ...

Less Known Results on the Solar System [PDF]

open access: yesINCAS Bulletin, 2021
For a two half millennium evolution of knowledge from the Democrit’s natural, rational atomized material conception to the Newtonian, Maxwellian, Einsteinian mathematized physics, the research in the most cases has followed a deductive route from ...

Practical Limits on Nanosatellite Telescope Pointing: The Impact of Disturbances and Photon Noise

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
Accurate and stable spacecraft pointing is a requirement of many astronomical observations. Pointing particularly challenges nanosatellites because of an unfavorable surface area–to-mass ratio and a proportionally large volume required for even the ...
