Comparative Analysis of Binhu and Cosmic-2 Radio Occultation Data
Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) radio occultation (RO) technology has been widely used in Earth atmospheric detection and has a significant impact on numerical weather prediction (NWP), climate detection, and other fields. Cosmic-2 LEO-1 (C2E1)

The cosmic microwave background Cold Spot anomaly: the impact of sky masking and the expected contribution from the Integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect [PDF]
We re-analyse the cosmic microwave background (CMB) Cold Spot (CS) anomaly with particular focus on understanding the bias a mask (contaminated by Galactic and point sources) may introduce.

The GMRT 150 MHz all-sky radio survey - First alternative data release TGSS ADR1 [PDF]
We present the first full release of a survey of the 150 MHz radio sky, observed with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) between April 2010 and March 2012 as part of the TIFR GMRT Sky Survey (TGSS) project.

Kaluza-Klein Masses and Couplings: Radiative Corrections to Tree-Level Relations
The most direct experimental signature of a compactified extra dimension is the appearance of towers of Kaluza-Klein particles obeying specific mass and coupling relations. However, such masses and couplings are subject to radiative corrections.

Radiative sky cooling: Fundamental principles, materials, and applications
Radiative sky cooling cools an object on the earth by emitting thermal infrared radiation to the cold universe through the atmospheric window (8–13 μm). It consumes no electricity and has great potential to be explored for cooling of buildings, vehicles,

Image of Shamanic Cosmos in Cyprus Turkish Folktales / Kıbrıs Türk Masallarında Şamanistik Evren Tasavvuru [PDF]
From mythology to celestial religions, cosmos is conceived of three parts. These are the sky where good gods are in, the earth where people live in and the underworld where bad gods and spirits are in. The sky is made up seven, nine or seventeen layers

Projective Cross-Ratio on Hypercomplex Numbers
The paper presents a new cross-ratio of hypercomplex numbers based on projective geometry. We discuss the essential properties of the projective cross-ratio, notably its invariance under Mobius transformations.

Spectroscopic Target Selection in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: The Main Galaxy Sample [PDF]
We describe the algorithm that selects the main sample of galaxies for spectroscopy in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) from the photometric data obtained by the imaging survey.

The Sky Is Not the Limit: LTE for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles [PDF]
Many use cases of UAVs require beyond visual LOS communications. Mobile networks offer wide-area, high-speed, and secure wireless connectivity, which can enhance control and safety of UAV operations and enable beyond visual LOS use cases. In this article,
