Collective Attention in Virtual Teams: A Pathway for Mitigating Communication Delays
ABSTRACT Virtual work has become a defining feature of modern organizations, intensifying the need for strategies that support virtual team performance. Communication delays—prolonged intervals between sending and receiving messages—are one of the most persistent and consequential barriers to virtual team performance.

An eye on long‐duration spaceflight: Controversies, countermeasures and challenges
Abstract Space flight‐associated neuroocular syndrome (SANS) is a consequence of long‐duration space flight and is detected in two‐thirds of astronauts. In‐flight, this can cause a change in the refraction of the eyes, requiring graded hypermetropic ‘superfocus adjustable’ glasses, optic nerve head oedema and choroidal folds.

Small-scale dipolarization fronts in the Earth′s magnetotail
Previous studies suggest that dipolarization fronts (DFs) are 1 to 3RE (RE is the earth radius) wide in the dawn-dusk direction. Recent kinetic simulations have found that DFs may break up into small-scale structures after they are produced by ...

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

Radio Pulse Power Distribution of Lightning in Jupiter's 2021–2022 Stealth Superstorms
Abstract Surveys and observations of lightning on Jupiter prior to the NASA Juno mission used night‐side imaging approaches, and a common conclusion was that the optical energy was similar to the highest energy terrestrial lightning flashes, or superbolts.

Finding Local Parallel Electric Fields in Magnetotail Reconnection Using a Two‐Spacecraft Method
Abstract We investigate the use of a novel two‐spacecraft Liouville‐mapping method using data from the Magnetospheric Multiscale mission to determine local magnetic‐field‐aligned (parallel) electric fields in the Earth's magnetotail. The method detects the presence of local acceleration potentials by mapping phase‐space density between electron ...

Comparative Analysis of the Primary Drivers of Plasma Sheet Electron Precipitation
Abstract Plasma sheet electron precipitation into Earth's atmosphere plays a key role in magnetosphere–ionosphere coupling at auroral latitudes. Such precipitation can be driven by four primary mechanisms that scatter equatorial electrons into the loss cone: resonant interactions with whistler‐mode waves, electron cyclotron harmonics (ECH), broadband ...

Launch support: Managing complementor bottlenecks in the disruptive innovation of small satellites
Abstract Research Summary Through both qualitative and quantitative analyses of large‐rocket providers' support for small‐satellite manufacturers before the emergence of small rockets, we examine how disruptors to an incumbent ecosystem gain support from complementors of the incumbent technology.

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
