The Impact of the May 2024 Geomagnetic Storm on TRISAT Orbital Decay: A TLE‐Based Analysis With a Lifetime Forecast

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract The 10–13 May 2024 geomagnetic storm was one of the strongest space‐weather events of Solar Cycle 25 and produced a major expansion of the thermosphere, substantially increasing atmospheric drag on low‐Earth‐orbit spacecraft. In this study, we quantify the storm‐time orbital response of TRISAT, Slovenia's first 3U CubeSat, using publicly ...

Energy Dependence of Energetic Electron Precipitation Rates Near the Foot of Electron Isotropy Boundary

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract We report a rare quiet‐time observation by NOAA‐18 spacecraft flying nearly along the electron isotropy boundary (IBe). Complemented by data from four nearby meridional IBe crossings of other POES spacecraft, this case study provides a novel quantitative information concerning the regular energy dependence of the loss‐cone filling ratio (Jprec/

Communication and Mutual Physical Position Estimation System for CubeSat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In recent years, constellations of CubeSats organized as a swarm are redefining the classical concept of space missions. The biggest challenge for the realization of an efficient swarm is to provide to the CubeSats the ability to interact and communicate

Revealing the Formation of the <20 MeV Inner Proton Radiation Belt at L ∼ 2 During the 10–11 May 2024 Superstorm

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract A new proton radiation belt was identified during the geomagnetic superstorm of 10–11 May 2024. To investigate its origin, we use an MHD‐test particle simulation to model solar energetic proton (SEP) trapping and the evolution of the initial trapped proton population during the storm.

Sub‐MeV Electron Precipitation Driven by EMIC Waves: New Insights From CIRBE/REPTile‐2 Measurements

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract Electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves are recognized as a key driver of relativistic (>1 MeV) electron loss in Earth's magnetosphere. Growing evidence also suggests that EMIC wave can efficiently scatter sub‐MeV electrons, although the precise energy range and the underlying physical mechanisms remain debated.

Extensible Hook System for Rendezvous and Docking of a CubeSat Swarm

open access: yesEngineering Proceedings
Deployment of CubeSat swarms is proposed for various missions necessitating cooperative interactions among satellites. Commonly, the cube swarm requires formation flight and even rendezvous and docking, which are very challenging tasks since they require

Beyond Earth: Resilience of Quasi‐2D Perovskite Solar Cells in Space

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 31, 2 June 2026.
In the article (DOI: 10.1002/adma.202520433), Christoph Putz and co‐workers demonstrate rigid quasi‐2D perovskite solar cells operating in low Earth orbit, delivering stable power for more than 100 days under real‐space conditions. In‐orbit performance is correlated with extensive ground‐based thermal and proton‐irradiation studies on rigid and ...

Deriving high-spatiotemporal-resolution leaf area index for agroecosystems in the U.S. Corn Belt using Planet Labs CubeSat and STAIR fusion data

open access: yes, 2020
Leaf area index (LAI) is a key variable for characterizing crop growth conditions and estimating crop productivity. Despite continuing efforts to develop LAI estimation algorithms, LAI datasets still need improvement at spatial and temporal resolutions ...
