Characteristics of the flankmagnetopause: Cluster observations

open access: yes, 2016
The magnetopause is a current sheet forming the boundary between the geomagnetic field on one side and the shocked solar wind on the other side. This paper discusses properties of the low-latitude dawn and dusk flanks of the magnetopause.

In situ evidence for the structure of the magnetic null in a 3D reconnection event in the Earth's magnetotail [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Magnetic reconnection is one of the most important processes in astrophysical, space and laboratory plasmas. Identifying the structure around the point at which the magnetic field lines break and subsequently reform, known as the magnetic null point, is ...

Spacecraft potential control for Double Star [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2005
The spacecraft potential of Double Star TC-1 is positive in large parts of the orbits due to the photo-effect from solar EUV irradiation. These positive potentials typically disturb low energy plasma measurements on board. The potential can be reduced,

Correlation functions of small-scale fluctuations of the interplanetary magnetic field

open access: yes, 2010
The Interplanetary Magnetic Field shows complex spatial and temporal variations. Single spacecraft measurements reveal only a one dimensional section of this rich four dimensional phenomenon.

Investigation of intermittency in magnetohydrodynamics and solar wind turbulence: scale-dependent kurtosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The behavior of scale-dependent (or filtered) kurtosis is studied in the solar wind using magnetic field measurements from the ACE and Cluster spacecraft at 1 AU.

Polystyrene/TiO2 Composite Thin Films by Powder Aerosol Deposition: Film Morphology Control Through Powder Processing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
It's all in the mix! By employing different homogenization strategies for preparing polystyrene/TiO2 polymer‐ceramic composite (PCC) powders, we tune the morphology of PCC films obtained by powder aerosol deposition, ranging from segregated multilayer‐like to finely blended composites.

Spatial scales of the magnetic ramp at the Venusian bow shock [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2011
Typically multi-spacecraft missions are ideally suited to the study of shock spatial scales due to the separation of temporal and spatial variations. These missions are not possible at all locations and therefore in-situ multi-spacecraft measurements ...

Multi-Spacecraft Observations of Fluctuations Occurring Along the Dusk Flank Magnetopause, and Testing the Connection to an Observed Ionospheric Bead

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
During 2018 November 06, 11:30—18:00 UT, the MMS constellation, the Cluster set of spacecraft, and the Geotail spacecraft were all situated near the dusk flank magnetopause.

Star scanner [PDF]

open access: yes, 1974
A star scanner on a spin stabilized spacecraft is described which includes a reticle with a pair of slits having different separations as a function of the spacecraft vertical plane, to form a V slit.

From the Discovery of the Giant Magnetocaloric Effect to the Development of High‐Power‐Density Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
The article overviews past and current efforts on caloric materials and systems, highlighting the contributions of Ames National Laboratory to the field. Solid‐state caloric heat pumping is an innovative method that can be implemented in a wide range of cooling and heating applications.
