From Flybys to Sample Return: A Review of Space Probes and Robotic Sampling Technologies for Small Bodies

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 7, Page 4475-4514, October 2026.
ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full

Simulating Bouncing Packets Driven by Ducted Lightning‐Generated Whistlers: Comparison With SAMPEX Observations

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.
Abstract Bouncing packets are quasi‐periodic microbursts separated by the electron bounce period. Solar Anomalous and Magnetospheric Particle Explorer observations revealed relativistic (>1 MeV) inner‐belt bouncing packets with “crown,” “decaying,” and “flat” envelopes.

Evolution of Reversed Electron Energy Spectra in Earth’s Radiation Belts Observed by CIRBE

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.
Abstract Following an intense geomagnetic storm (Dst < −150 nT) on 5 November 2023, electron fluxes in the outer radiation belt were reduced by more than three orders of magnitude at energies below ∼700 keV while they were enhanced at ∼1–3 MeV, leading to reversed energy spectra.
