Comparison of TRIAD+EKF and TRIAD+UKF Algorithms for Nanosatellite Attitude Estimation

open access: yesWSEAS transactions on systems and control, 2022
Two most commonly used sensors on nanosatellites are magnetometer and sun sensor. In this paper, magnetometer and sun sensor measurements are combined gyro measurements to produce enhanced attitude estimation.

Progress in satellite quantum key distribution

open access: yes, 2017
Quantum key distribution (QKD) is a family of protocols for growing a private encryption key between two parties. Despite much progress, all ground-based QKD approaches have a distance limit due to atmospheric losses or in-fibre attenuation.

Electron tunneling of hierarchically structured silver nanosatellite particles for highly conductive healable nanocomposites

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Healable conductive materials have received considerable attention. However, their practical applications are impeded by low electrical conductivity and irreversible degradation after breaking/healing cycles. Here we report a highly conductive completely

Development of Microsatellite Markers for Ex Situ Management of the Harpy Eagle Using Next Generation Sequencing

open access: yesZoo Biology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Harpy Eagle (Harpia harpyja), one of the largest birds of prey in the world, is threatened with extinction throughout its entire area of occurrence in the Neotropics. While conservation efforts for the wild populations are crucial, it is also important to focus on ex situ conservation actions.
