Curlometer and gradient techniques: past and future applications

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
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

A relative Poincaré–Birkhoff theorem

Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 58, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract A. Moreno and Otto van Koert proved a generalised version of the classical Poincaré–Birkhoff theorem, for Liouville domains of any dimension. In this article, we prove a relative version for Lagrangians with Legendrian boundary. This gives interior chords of arbitrary large length, provided that the twist condition introduced by Moreno and van

Observing the Earth's Plasmasphere and Ionosphere From the Lunar Surface

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract We present the analysis of the first lunar‐based observational characterization of the Earth's plasmasphere and ionosphere using Global Navigation Satellite Systems signals tracked from the lunar surface by the Lunar GNSS Receiver Experiment (LuGRE). The Earth‐Moon geometry enables limb sounding of the plasmasphere at altitudes exceeding 3,000

Kernel Embedding Approaches to Orbit Determination of Spacecraft Clusters

, 2018
This paper presents a novel formulation and solution of orbit determination over finite time horizons as a learning problem. We present an approach to orbit determination under very broad conditions that are satisfied for n-body problems. These weak conditions allow us to perform orbit determination with noisy and highly non-linear observations such as

Occurrence of Flat‐Top Electron Velocity Distributions in Magnetotail Plasma Jets

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract Non‐Maxwellian electron velocity distributions (eVDFs) are ubiquitous in collisionless plasmas. For example, various types of non‐Maxwellian eVDFs exist in magnetic reconnection jets in the Earth's magnetotail. At thermal energies, eVDF can be flat‐topped due to electron trapping associated with magnetic reconnection.

Global Observational Comparison of Large‐Scale Traveling Atmospheric and Ionospheric Disturbances During the May 2024 Geomagnetic Storm

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract During the geomagnetic storm on 10 May 2024, neutral density measurements from 14 Tianmu, Swarm, and GRACE‐FO satellites at ∼510 km altitude, combined with total electron content (TEC) observations, enabled the first global observational comparison of large‐scale traveling atmospheric and ionospheric disturbances (LSTADs/TIDs) via snapshots ...

Global Occurrence of Solitary Waves in the Martian Magnetosphere

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract This letter presents a global occurrence of bipolar solitary waves (SWs) in the Martian magnetosphere. We utilized medium‐frequency electric field measurements from October 2014 to December 2023 from the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN (MAVEN) spacecraft.

Evolution of NWC Transmitter Wave Power Distribution From the Topside Ionosphere Into the Inner Magnetosphere

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract Ground‐based very low frequency transmitters emit signals that primarily propagate within the Earth–ionosphere waveguide, and some of their energy can propagate into the magnetosphere. Ionospheric observations from the DEMETER satellite reveal a distinct concentric rings pattern of the wave power distribution of the North West Cape transmitter

Experimental Factors and Techniques for Pool Boiling Heat Transfer Enhancement: A Critical Review

Heat Transfer, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 2201-2232, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This review presents a comprehensive assessment of active strategies for enhancing pool boiling heat transfer, with a focus on techniques that do not rely solely on the boiling surface modification. It examines a broad range of methodologies including fluid additives, external fields, mechanical interventions, and thermal‐geometric tuning that
