Flight Dynamics Operations of the TanDEM-X Formation [PDF]
, 2012 Since end of 2010 the German TerraSAR-X and TanDEM-X satellites are routinely operated as the first configurable single-pass Synthetic Aperture Radar interferometer in space. The two 1340 kg satellites fly in a 514 km sun-synchronous orbit.

Dark satellites and the morphology of dwarf galaxies [PDF]
, 2012 One of the strongest predictions of the LambdaCDM cosmological model is the presence of dark satellites orbiting all types of galaxies. We focus here on the dynamical effects of such satellites on disky dwarf galaxies, and demonstrate that these ...

Dust evolution and satellitesimal formation in circumplanetary disks [PDF]
, 2018 It is believed that satellites of giant planets form in circumplanetary disks. Many of the previous contributions assumed that their formation process proceeds similarly to rocky planet formation, via accretion of the satellite seeds, called ...

Observations of microphysical properties and radiative effects of a contrail cirrus outbreak over the North Atlantic [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2023 Contrail cirrus constitute the largest radiative forcing (RF) component to the total aviation effect on climate. However, the microphysical properties and radiative effects of contrail cirrus and natural cirrus clouds in the same meteorological ...

The Puzzling Mutual Orbit of the Binary Trojan Asteroid (624) Hektor [PDF]
, 2014 Asteroids with satellites are natural laboratories to constrain the formation and evolution of our solar system. The binary Trojan asteroid (624) Hektor is the only known Trojan asteroid to possess a small satellite. Based on W.M.

Study and Analysis of Landslide Potential Us-ing Numerical Modeling (A Case Study: Ghaen-Afin Roadway in Southern Khorasan) [PDF]
پژوهشهای زیرساختهای عمرانی, 2019 Steep slopes developed on the loose ground, either natural or artificial, are prone to landslide phenomena. During con-struction activities for the development of new Qaen-Afin road in South Khorasan and adjacent to Ravoshk village, a sudden landslide ...

Deciphering the Origin of the Regular Satellites of Gaseous Giants - Iapetus: the Rosetta Ice-Moon [PDF]
, 2009 Here we show that Iapetus can serve to discriminate between satellite formation models. Its accretion history can be understood in terms of a two-component gaseous subnebula, with a relatively dense inner region, and an extended tail out to the location ...

Satellite-Based Analysis of Surface Upwelling in the Sea Adjacent to Zhoushan Islands in China
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 The fish catch in natural upwelling areas, which accounts for only 0.1% of the ocean surface, accounts for more than 40% of the world’s catch. The Zhoushan fishery, which is the largest fishery in China, is mainly formed by a coastal upwelling that ...
