The θBn problem: Determination of local magnetic parameters of interplanetary shocks from in situ IMF data [PDF]
Geofísica Internacional, 2001 The angle θBn is the angle between the upstream magnetic field and the shock normal direction and is important for many phenomena in interplanetary physics.

Interplanetary frontiers: terraforming from an invasion science perspective
Oikos, EarlyView.The pursuit of a multi‐planetary existence represents one of humanity's greatest frontiers. If applied justly, it offers an opportunity to extend its civilization's lifespan amid escalating sustainability crises on Earth. One approach increasingly gaining traction is terraforming, a hitherto theoretical ecological and evolutionary experiment revolving ...

The plasma-solid transition: some implications in astrophysics [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2002 Using a criterion proposed by Salpeter and standard solid-state physics, we have determined the Debye temperature of a solid in equilibrium with the electron gas surrounding it.

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.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

Evidence for the interplanetary electric potential? WIND observations of electrostatic fluctuations [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2002 In the solar wind at 1 AU, coherent electrostatic waveforms in the ion acoustic frequency range (~ 1 kHz) have been observed by the Time Domain Sampler (TDS) instrument on the Wind spacecraft.

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The design of a hexapod is complex and requires integration between kinematic models, control systems, and sensing. Existing literature has reviewed these sub‐systems in isolation. Since 2021, there has been no review of the field despite significant advancements in soft soil, lunar traversal, and artificial intelligence.

Oscillations in the open solar magnetic flux with a period of 1.68 years: imprint on galactic cosmic rays and implications for heliospheric shielding [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2004 An understanding of how the heliosphere modulates galactic cosmic ray (GCR) fluxes and spectra is important, not only for studies of their origin, acceleration and propagation in our galaxy, but also for predicting their effects (on technology and on the

Physical Processes and Models of Interplanetary Responses: Suggested Theoretical Studies [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1980 Three ways to improve the theory and therefore the understanding of the physical processes in the interplanetary medium (during both quiet and disturbed periods of solar activity) are suggested. They are: (1) the development and consequently the use of higher order moments (fluid) equations as well as of more realistic closure conditions and transport ...
