The Micro‐Broadband Receiver (μBBR) on the Very‐Low‐Frequency Propagation Mapper CubeSat
The very low frequency (VLF) propagation mapper (VPM) is a 6U CubeSat designed to measure VLF radio waves in Low‐Earth Orbit. The science goals of the VPM mission are to measure VLF signals broadcast by the DSX mission, and to study natural and ...

Stormtime dynamics of the global thermosphere and equatorial ionosphere [PDF]
During magnetic storms the development of equatorial plasma bubbles (EPBs) and distributions of thermospheric densities are strongly influenced by the histories of imposed magnetospheric electric (εM) fields.

Aeroelastic Stability of an Aerial Refueling Hose–Drogue System with Aerodynamic Grid Fins
In this work, the aeroelastic stability of an aerial refueling system is investigated. The system is formed by a classical hose and drogue, and the novelty of our work is the inclusion of a grid fin configuration to improve its stability.

A global climatology for equatorial plasma bubbles in the topside ionosphere [PDF]
We have developed a global climatology of equatorial plasma bubble (EPB) occurrence based on evening sector plasma density measurements from polar-orbiting Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) spacecraft during 1989-2004. EPBs are irregular

Acoustic and Dynamic Response of Unbaffled Plates of Arbitrary Shape
In this study, a method for determining the effects of fluids on the dynamic characteristics of an aerospace structure and the response of the structure when it is excited by the acoustical loads produced during a rocket launch, has been developed ...

Measurement of Optical Rubidium Clock Frequency Spanning 65 Days
Optical clocks are emerging as next-generation timekeeping devices with technological and scientific use cases. Simplified atomic sources such as vapor cells may offer a straightforward path to field use, but suffer from long-term frequency drifts and ...
