Non-Keplerian orbits using hybrid solar sail propulsion for Earth applications

open access: yes, 2012
Half a century of space technology development has provided a wealth of new space applications. However, many still remain to be explored. Examples include increased geostationary coverage and new opportunities to enhance polar observation.

Sun-synchronous highly elliptical orbits using low-thrust propulsion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Due to restrictions within the current architecture of the global observing system (GOS), space-based remote sensing of Earth suffers from an acute data-deficit over the critical polar-regions. Currently, observation of high-latitude regions is conducted

Extension of the Molniya orbit using low-thrust propulsion

open access: yes, 2011
Extension of the standard Molniya orbit using low-thrust propulsion is presented. These newly proposed, highly elliptical orbits are enabled by existing low-thrust propulsion technology, enabling new Earth Observation science and offering a new set of ...

Molecular characterization of covRS mutations in M1UK Streptococcus pyogenes

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Group A Streptococcus (GAS) acquires covRS mutations driving a hypervirulent bacterial state, frequently associated with invasive disease‐like necrotizing fasciitis. We demonstrate that the newly emerged M1UK GAS lineage can also acquire these mutations.

First In-orbit Experience of TerraSAR-X Flight Dynamics Operations

open access: yes, 2007
TerraSAR-X is an advanced synthetic aperture radar satellite system for scientific and commercial applications that is realized in a public-private partnership between the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and the Astrium GmbH.

Bulk plasma properties at geosynchronous orbit. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We present a comprehensive study of plasma properties at geosynchronous orbit for electron and ion energies between ∼1 eV and ∼45 keV, between 1990 and 2001.

Re‐Awakening Public Attention to the Silent Pandemic of Cancer Among Older Adults in Low‐ and Middle‐Income Countries

open access: yesAging and Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As global populations age, cancer is increasingly becoming a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among older adults, particularly in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs). Despite accounting for the majority of new cancer cases and deaths, older individuals remain underrepresented in cancer research, clinical guidelines, and health ...

Risk Prediction Models for Recurrence After Curative Treatment of Early‐Stage or Locally Advanced Lung Cancer: A Systematic Review

open access: yesAging and Cancer, EarlyView.
This systematic review synthesizes prognostic models for survival and recurrence in resected non‐small cell lung cancer. While many models demonstrate moderate to good discrimination, few are externally validated and reporting quality is variable, limiting clinical applicability and highlighting the need for robust, transparent model development ...

Optimal trajectory design for interception and deflection of Near Earth Objects

open access: yes, 2010
Many asteroids and comets orbit the inner solar system; among them Near Earth Objects (NEOs) are those celestial bodies for which the orbit lies close, and sometimes crosses, the Earth's orbit.

Analytical model for the propagation of small debris objects clouds after fragmentations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Current debris evolutionary models usually neglect fragments smaller than 10 cm because of the high computational effort they add to the simulation. However, small-debris objects can also be dangerous to operational satellites.
