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

Boosting Green Propellants: The Sustainable Armored Grain for Hybrid Rocket Propulsion
In the last years, the armored grain, a paraffin-based fuel reinforced by a 3D-printed polymeric gyroidlike reinforcement, has been identified as a promising fuel for hybrid rocket engines. In this work, the already promising armored grain concept is improved by developing a greener version.

Atomically precise metal nanoclusters are ultrasmall aggregates of metal atoms with finely tunable structures. They exhibit broad PL across visible to NIR wavelengths by tuning size, structure, and composition. The review addresses fundamental emission mechanisms and structure–property correlations, evaluating enhancement strategies (ligand ...
