Survey on AI‐Enabled Computer Vision Technologies and Applications for Space Robotic Missions

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 4, Page 2553-2584, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This survey provides a comprehensive overview of recent advancements and challenges in Artificial Intelligence (AI)‐enabled computer vision (CV) techniques for space robotic missions, spanning critical phases such as Entry, Descent, and Landing (EDL), orbital operations, and planetary surface exploration.

Galactic Density and Evolution Based on the Virial Theorem, Energy Minimization, and Conservation of Angular Momentum

open access: yesGalaxies, 2018
Spiral galaxies are spinning, internally densified objects. The Virial Theorem explains galactic rotation curves via its linkage of the rotation rate to the gravitational self-potential (Ug) and the moment of inertia of oblate spheroids.

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

A Catalog of Photometric Redshift and the Distribution of Broad Galaxy Morphologies

open access: yesGalaxies, 2018
We created a catalog of photometric redshift of ∼3,000,000 SDSS galaxies annotated by their broad morphology. The photometric redshift was optimized by testing and comparing several pattern recognition algorithms and variable selection strategies, and ...

On the Detection of Low‐Frequency Planetary Radio Emission With an Orbiting Interferometer

open access: yesRadio Science, Volume 61, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The magnetized planets of the outer Solar System produce kilometric radio emissions at very low frequencies (<1 ${< } 1\,$MHz). They reveal the planetary magnetic dynamics and their interaction with the solar wind. Those radio emissions can also serve as a proxy for interplanetary space weather monitoring.

Dynamical Models of Elliptical Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1975
Self-consistent dynamical models of elliptical galaxies have been constructed using a modification of the Prendergast-Tomer algorithm. They reproduce many of the observed properties of elliptical galaxies.

The orientation of elliptical galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysics and Space Science, 2010
We determine the orientations of the light distribution of individual elliptical galaxies by combining the profiles of photometric data from the literature with triaxial models. The orientation is given by a Bayesian probability distribution. The likelihood of obtaining the data from a model is a function of the parameters describing the intrinsic ...

Fundamental properties of elliptical galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
The global properties of elliptical galaxies, such as luminosity, radius, projected velocity dispersion, projected luminosity, etc., form a two-dimensional family.

What Observations Would an Energetic Neutral Atom Imager Have Made During the Voyager 2 Flyby of Uranus?

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract We present large‐scale simulations of energetic neutral atom (ENA) emissions at Uranus from a spacecraft viewpoint. Models of magnetic field, extended hydrogen exosphere, moon‐sourced neutral tori, and proton radiation belt are implemented into a simulator to evaluate the production of ENAs for L $L$ = 1–15.

Probing the Age of Elliptical Galaxies

open access: yes, 1996
In this paper we address the question whether age and metallicity effects can be disentangled with the aid of the broad-band colours and spectral indices from absorption feature strengths, so that the age of elliptical galaxies can be inferred. The observational data under examination are the indices Hbeta and [MgFe], and the velocity dispersion Sigma ...
