Radiometric temperature analysis of the Hayabusa spacecraft re-entry [PDF]
Hayabusa, an unmanned Japanese spacecraft, was launched to study and collect samples from the surface of the asteroid 25143 Itokawa. In June 2010, the Hayabusa spacecraft completed it’s seven year voyage. The spacecraft and the sample return capsule (SRC)

Evaporation‐Driven Solutal Marangoni Control of Rayleigh–Taylor Instability in Inverted Films
Inverted liquid films, like paint on a ceiling, are inherently unstable under gravity. This work shows that selective evaporation in volatile binary mixtures generates solutal Marangoni stresses that either suppress or amplify the Rayleigh Taylor instability.

Unveiling a Bulk WTaV Multicomponent Alloy With Superior Thermal Properties and Manufacturability
ABSTRACT Many tungsten (W)‐based medium and high entropy alloys (HEA) demonstrate superior microstructural stability and enhanced mechanical properties as compared to pure W, effectively rendering them as viable candidate materials for extreme environments such as nuclear fusion, aerospace applications, and so on.

This study elucidates how steric hindrance in amines creates a dual effect in CO2 capture: it thermodynamically favors the reaction by shifting the pathway from carbamate to alkyl carbonate formation, increasing capacity and lowering regeneration heat, while simultaneously slightly slowing the kinetics.
