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.

Solar Wind Electric Fields in the Ion Cyclotron Frequency Range
Measurements of fluctuations of electric fields in the frequency range from a fraction of one Hz to 12.5 Hz are presented, and corrected for the Lorentz transformation of magnetic fluctuations to give the electric fields in the plasma frame. The electric

Cartography of Accident Causation Models: Remapping the Modeling Landscape
ABSTRACT Accident causation models are abstractions of the real world that explicitly or implicitly underlie our perception and understanding of accidents. As the continuous advancement of our dynamic society demands us to keep updating our understanding of accidents, this review article provides an overview of the landscape of accident causation ...

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.

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 ...

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.

The Study of the Pioneer Anomaly: New Data and Objectives for New Investigation
Radiometric tracking data from Pioneer 10 and 11 spacecraft has consistently indicated the presence of a small, anomalous, Doppler frequency drift, uniformly changing with a rate of ~6 x 10^{-9} Hz/s; the drift can be interpreted as a constant sunward ...

Occurrence of Non‐Stationarity at Earth's Quasi‐Perpendicular Bow Shock
Abstract Collisionless shocks can exhibit non‐stationary behavior even under steady upstream conditions, forming a complex transition region. Ion phase‐space holes, linked to shock self‐reformation and surface ripples, are a signature of this non‐stationarity.
