X‐ray and γ‐ray Sensing from Aqueous‐Based Lead Sulfide Telluride Nanocomposites
PbSxTey nanoparticles integrate into flexible, size‐scalable aramid polymeric scaffolds, forming percolation paths capable of efficiently transporting the electrons and holes created by penetrating photonic interactions. The resulting nanosemiconductor‐nanofiber composite forms the basis for room‐temperature spectroscopic sensors of X‐rays and γ‐rays ...

Curlometer and gradient techniques: past and future applications
We review the range of applications and use of multi spacecraft techniques, applicable to close formation arrays of spacecraft, focusing on spatial gradient based methods, and the curlometer in particular. The curlometer was originally applied to Cluster

Abstract The Solar, Anomalous, and Magnetospheric Explorer (SAMPEX) mission launched in July 1992 was the first NASA “Small Explorer” project. It had the goal to show how space missions could be developed much more rapidly than had become the situation in the 1980s and 1990s.

Influence of the Earthward and Tailward Ion Flows on the Lunar Surface Water in the Magnetotail
Abstract Earth wind, namely the particles from the Earth's magnetotail, is an important source of lunar water. Besides tailward flow incident on the lunar nearside when the Moon is in the magnetotail, there exists earthward flow bombarding the farside, affecting the distribution and preservation of lunar water.

Abstract Stable auroral red (SAR) arcs are luminous subauroral emissions produced by the collisional excitation of oxygen atoms during geomagnetically active times. While traditionally attributed to inner magnetospheric electron heating, recent observations and simulations challenge the exclusivity of this mechanism.

Cold ions of ionospheric origin observed at the dayside magnetopause and their effects on magnetic reconnection [PDF]
Thesis (Ph.D.) University of Alaska Fairbanks, 2015Magnetic reconnection at the dayside magnetopause is one of the most important mechanisms that efficiently transfers solar wind particles, momentum, and energy into the magnetosphere.

Abstract Earth's radiation belts are the regions where highly energetic charged particles are trapped by Earth's magnetic field, posing significant risks to the satellites and other space‐based technologies. Understanding the dynamics of the radiation belts is critical not only for advancing fundamental plasma physics but also for predicting and ...
