Orbit control of high area-to-mass ratio spacecraft using electrochromic coating

open access: yes, 2010
This paper presents a novel method for the orbit control of high area-to-mass ratio spacecraft, such as spacecraft-on-a-chip, future „smart dust‟ devices and inflatable spacecraft.

What does coexistence mean? Insight from place‐based trajectories of pastoralists and bears encounters in the Pyrenees

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The recovery of large carnivores in Europe raises issues related to sharing landscape with humans. Beyond technical solutions, it is widely recognized that social factors also contribute to shaping coexistence. In this context, scholars increasingly stress the need to adopt place‐based approaches by analysing how humans and wildlife interact ...

Digital surveillance of animals and nature recovery

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Digital surveillance technologies (DSTs) are widely applied in nature recovery for their potential to generate novel data on species and ecosystems through digital tracking, automation (e.g. from hazardous locations) and from newly recruited citizen scientists.

Solar radiation pressure augmented deorbiting from high altitude sun-synchronous orbits

open access: yes, 2012
This paper discusses the use of solar radiation pressure (SRP) augmented deorbiting to passively remove small satellites from high altitude Sun-synchronous orbits. SRP-augmented deorbiting works by deploying a light-weight reflective inflatable device to

Drag-free Satellite Simulator

open access: yesDrag-free Satellite Simulator
We have been investigating a possibility of launching a satellite in a planetary orbit to test the general theory of relativity. As a first step of it, we have fabricated a drag-free system model for a laboratory simulation in order to acquire the fundamental technique and find unexpected problems.

Shingle Interconnection Reliability of PERC and Thin HJT Cells for Low Earth Orbit Applications

open access: yesProgress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, EarlyView.
Evolution of maximum power output (Pmax$$ {}_m ax $$) of PERC and thin HJT shingled cells with the Electrically Conductive Adhesives (ECA) “S” and “A” exposed to +120°C/−$$ - $$120°C thermal cycles up to 5×103$$ 5\times 1{0}^3 $$ times. Losses are induced by an increased series resistance with all cell technologies and ECA. Imaging (electroluminescence
