A review on the numerical simulation of equatorial plasma bubbles toward scintillation evaluation and forecasting

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2017
Equatorial plasma bubbles (EPBs) have been a longstanding and increasingly important subject because they cause severe scintillations in radio waves from Global Navigation Satellite System satellites.

Irregular Satellites of the Planets: Products of Capture in the Early Solar System

open access: yes, 2007
All four giant planets in the Solar system possess irregular satellites, characterized by large, highly eccentric and/or inclined orbits that are distinct from the nearly circular, uninclined orbits of the regular satellites.

Comparing methods to estimate cloud cover over the Baikal Natural Territory in December 2020

open access: yesSolar-Terrestrial Physics, 2022
The paper addresses the issue of how much cloud cover data obtained using satellite and model-interpolation techniques are suitable for monitoring the transparency of the atmosphere and determining conditions for airglow observations at a local ...

Astrometric positions for 18 irregular satellites of giant planets from 23 years of observations

open access: yes, 2015
The irregular satellites of the giant planets are believed to have been captured during the evolution of the solar system. Knowing their physical parameters, such as size, density, and albedo is important for constraining where they came from and how ...

Analysis of the Temporal Evolution of Ice Aprons in the Mont-Blanc Massif Using X and C-Band SAR Images

open access: yesFrontiers in Remote Sensing, 2022
This paper investigates the backscatter evolution and surface changes of ice aprons (IAs) by exploiting time series of X- and C-band SAR images from PAZ and Sentinel-1 satellites.

Outer irregular satellites of the planets and their relationship with asteroids, comets and Kuiper Belt objects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Outer satellites of the planets have distant, eccentric orbits that can be highly inclined or even retrograde relative to the equatorial planes of their planets.

A new perspective on the irregular satellites of Saturn - I Dynamical and collisional history [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The dynamical features of the irregular satellites of the giant planets argue against an in-situ formation and are strongly suggestive of a capture origin.

Change of the high-latitude ionosphere during heating by a powerful short radio wave of the EISCAT/Heating complex according to signals of the GLONASS satellite and the incoherent scattering radar

open access: yesVestnik MGTU, 2018
Results of observations of variations of temperature, electron concentration and total electron content of the high-latitude region of the ionosphere during its modification by powerful short radio waves of the heating complex EISCAT/Heating (Tromsø ...

Constraints from deuterium on the formation of icy bodies in the Jovian system and beyond

open access: yes, 2008
We consider the role of deuterium as a potential marker of location and ambient conditions during the formation of small bodies in our Solar system. We concentrate in particular on the formation of the regular icy satellites of Jupiter and the other ...
