Report of the direct infrared sensors panel [PDF]

, 1991
The direct infrared sensors panel considered a wide range of options for technologies relevant to the science goals of the Astrotech 21 mission set. Among the technologies assessed are: large format arrays; photon counting detectors; higher temperature 1

Ozone Production by Electron Irradiation of Regolith Ice: Laboratory Study for the Icy Moons

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract We irradiate fine‐grained regolith pure water ice in ultra high vacuum with 5keV $5\,\text{keV}$ and 10keV $10\,\text{keV}$ electrons to study the radiolysis of water ice. The ice regolith is designed to closely mimic the physical characteristics of the surfaces of the icy moons of the Solar System.

Late-time acceleration with steep exponential potentials

European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2017
In this letter, we study the cosmological dynamics of steeper potential than exponential. Our analysis shows that a simple extension of an exponential potential allows to capture late-time cosmic acceleration and retain the tracker behavior.

The Hubble Deep Fields [PDF]

, 2000
The Hubble space telescope observations of the northern Hubble deep field, and more recently its counterpart in the south, provide detections and photometry for stars and field galaxies to the faintest levels currently achievable, reaching magnitudes V ~

Sampling the volcanic plumes at Io: Impact speeds and shock conditions

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 2, Page 241-271, February 2026.
Abstract The desire to sample material from the interior of Io, by flying through its volcanic plumes, requires consideration of the flyby speed and the types of sample collection techniques that can be utilized. Low speed collection (1–2.5 km s−1) would require an orbit around Io itself, which is unlikely due to the accumulated radiation dose that ...

V659 Cen: System Members Updated

The Astronomical Journal
V659 Cen is a classical Cepheid which is part of a multiple system. Previous observations have shown that a hot companion dominates an ultraviolet spectrum and a cooler main-sequence star dominates an XMM-Newton spectrum. The Hubble Space Telescope Space

The High Plasma Density Observed Along the PJ57 Juno Flyby of Io Implies the Presence of a Dense Atomic Corona

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract On December 2023, the Juno spacecraft made a flyby of Io above the northern hemisphere at a closest approach (CA) altitude of ∼1,500 km (PJ57). The Juno/Waves and Radio‐occultation measurements showed a surprising large electron density ∼28,000 cm−3 near closest approach.

The Importance of Optical Wavelength Data on Atmospheric Retrievals of Exoplanet Transmission Spectra

The Astronomical Journal
Exoplanet transmission spectra provide rich information about the chemical composition, clouds, and temperature structure of exoplanet atmospheres. Most exoplanet transmission spectra only span infrared wavelengths (≳1 μ m), which can preclude crucial ...

Hubble Space Telescope arrives

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1989
After a secret transcontinental flight, NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has arrived at the Kennedy Space Center at Cape Canaveral, Fla., where it will be tested in preparation for a March 26, 1990, launch aboard the space shuttle Discovery.The telescope was gingerly transferred from a Lockheed plant in California, where it was assembled, to Florida on an
