Extending the ICESAT-2 ATLAS Lidar Capabilities to Other Planets Within Our Solar System

open access: yesPhotonics
The ATLAS lidar on NASA’s Earth-orbiting ICESat-2 satellite has operated continuously since its launch in September 2018, with no sign of degradation. Compared to previous international single-beam spaceborne lidars, which operated at a few tens of Hz ...

Voyager cartography [PDF]

open access: yes
The Jovian and Saturnian satellites are being mapped at several scales from Voyager 1 and 2 data. The maps are especially formatted color mosaics, controlled photomosaics, and airbrush maps.

Autonomous Cargo Transport with Biohybrid Microswimmers Enabled by Light‐Mediated Bacteria‐Cargo Communication

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biohybrid microswimmers, which integrate the unique mobility and taxis of living cells with the versatility of synthetic cargo, offer exciting opportunities for targeted delivery. However, current biohybrids lack autonomous decision‐making capabilities due to the absence of communication between living and synthetic components. Here, we report

Multibeam Laser Altimeter for Planetary Topographic Mapping [PDF]

open access: yes
Laser altimetry provides an active, high-resolution, high-accuracy method for measurement of planetary and asteroid surface topography. The basis of the measurement is the timing of the roundtrip propagation of short-duration pulses of laser radiation ...

Mapping Earth Analogs from Photometric Variability: Spin-Orbit Tomography for Planets in Inclined Orbits

open access: yes, 2012
Aiming at obtaining detailed information of surface environment of Earth analogs, Kawahara & Fujii (2011) proposed an inversion technique of annual scattered light curves named the spin-orbit tomography (SOT), which enables one to sketch a two ...

Development of Laterally Graded X‐Ray Multilayer Optics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This work presents the development of laterally graded X‐ray multilayer optics with both constant and variable lateral gradients. By precisely controlling substrate speed profiles and mask design, these multilayers achieve highly accurate lateral gradients and excellent sagittal thickness uniformity, making them ideal for spectroscopy application at ...

Research in volcanic geology, petrology and planetary science at MIT, 1969 to 1974 [PDF]

open access: yes
The behavior of volcanoes was studied by geologic mapping, petrologic investigations of lava and xenoliths, physical measurements, and theoretical modelling. Field observations were conducted in Alaska (Nunivak Island), Iceland, Hawaii (Mauna Kea), Italy

Decreasing Computing Time with Symplectic Correctors in Adaptive Timestepping Routines

open access: yes, 2010
It has previously been shown that varying the numerical timestep during a symplectic orbital integration leads to a random walk in energy and angular momentum, destroying the phase space-conserving property of symplectic integrators.

3D Printing of Highly Dense and Translucent Zirconia Parts for Dental Applications: Effect of Filament Overlapping

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This study formulated a 5Y‐PSZ zirconia paste for extrusion‐based additive manufacturing via direct ink writing, producing dense ceramic structures for dental applications. A colloidal approach with 47 vol% nanometric powder and tailored additives optimized rheology and printability.
