Nonlinear Proton Dynamics in the Formation of Rising‐Tone EMIC Wave Subpackets
Abstract Electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves are commonly observed in the Earth's magnetosphere and play a significant role in regulating relativistic electron fluxes. The waveform of EMIC waves comprises amplitude‐modulated wave packets, known as “subpackets.” Despite their prevalence, the underlying physics and associated particle dynamics for

In this paper we present analysis of current density when the Cluster spacecraft pass the nightside auroral region at about 4-5 RE from the center of Earth. The analysis is made when the inter-spacecraft separation is within 200 km, which allows all four

Abstract Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) is acknowledged as a significant type of corrosion due to its extensive impact on metal/alloy surfaces. As MIC accounts for 20% of all corrosion instances, it is a critical factor causing service failure of engineering materials such as steel and aluminium alloy.

ABSTRACT Quantum key distribution (QKD) allows the generation of cryptographic keys beyond the computational hardness paradigm and is befitting for secure data transmission requiring long‐term security. The communication distance of fiber‐based QKD, however, is limited to a few hundred kilometers due to the exponential scaling of signal attenuation ...

Laser Terminals on CubeSats: Developments for Telecommunications and Quantum Links
ABSTRACT Satellite‐based laser communication is an emerging technology that is finding its way from research to industry. Compared to radio frequency (RF) systems, it has a more efficient size, weight, and power budget and, furthermore, is license free.

A new X-ray outburst in the globular cluster NGC 6440: SAX J1748.9-2021 [PDF]
For the second time in 27 years a bright transient X-ray source has been detected coincident with the globular cluster NGC 6440. It was found to be active in August, 1998, with the Wide Field Camera and the narrow field instruments on the BeppoSAX spacecraft, and with the All-Sky Monitor and the Proportional Counter Array on the RossiXTE spacecraft ...

Update on the German and Australasian Optical Ground Station Networks
ABSTRACT Networks of ground stations designed to transmit and receive at visible and infra‐red wavelengths through the atmosphere offer an opportunity to provide on‐demand, high‐bandwidth, secure communications with spacecraft in Earth orbit and beyond. This work describes the operation and activities of current free space optical communications (FSOC)
