System engineering of autonomous space vehicles [PDF]

2014 International Conference on Prognostics and Health Management, 2014
Human exploration of the solar system requires fully autonomous systems when travelling more than 5 light minutes from Earth. This autonomy is necessary to manage a large, complex spacecraft with limited crew members and skills available. The communication latency requires the vehicle to deal with events with only limited crew interaction in most cases.

Nowcasting Solar EUV Irradiance With Photospheric Magnetic Fields and the Mg II Index

Space Weather
A new method to nowcast spectral irradiance in extreme ultraviolet (EUV) and far ultraviolet (FUV) bands is presented here, utilizing only solar photospheric magnetograms and the Mg II index (i.e., the core‐to‐wing ratio).
