Research on the life-limiting sputtering mechanism of 30 cm ion thruster

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2022
“Pits-and-grooves” patterns on the downstream accelerator grid surface had a severe effect on the thruster life; however, the sputtering patterns on the decelerator grid upstream surface were also observed after the thruster worked for over 3000 h ...

Synergistic perspectives—How single‐molecule biophysics complement biochemical understanding

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss how ensemble biochemistry and single‐molecule approaches are complementary, outline commonly used single‐molecule techniques, and illustrate their relevance through two representative case studies: chromatin organization by SMC complexes and pathway choice during DNA double‐strand break repair.

Investigation of a miniature differential ion thruster

open access: yes, 2011
Complex space missions involving formation flying or drag compensation are driving the need for spacecraft propulsion systems capable of providing low but also highly accurate thrust levels.

From junk to function — How weak selection in eukaryotes builds new parts and drives genomic complexity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

Closed-Loop Precision Design and Performance Validation of an Additively Manufactured Integrated Thruster

open access: yesAerospace
Laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) enables the integral fabrication of thrust chamber–nozzle and injector assemblies, eliminating some assembly and welding interfaces and reducing structural redundancy.

Modelling Rocket System Performance Parameters

open access: yesAcademy Journal of Science and Engineering, 2022
What distinguishes the rocket system from airbreathing engines is that the rocket carries its own propellants, fuel and oxidants.  The modern rocket was originally developed for ballistic missiles.

Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...

Numerical simulation and experimental research of LRIT-30 radio frequency ion thruster

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2021
This study aimed at discussing the laws of the design parameters of a radio frequency (RF) ion thruster that influence the thruster performance, guide the performance optimization-oriented design of the thruster, and realize the high-accuracy continuous ...

PANoptosis in the pathogenesis of myelodysplastic syndromes

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PANoptosis, a combination of three types of programmed cell death, is mediated by a large protein complex called a PANoptosome. In healthy bone marrow hematopoietic cells, PANoptosis is restricted by inhibitory signaling. In MDS, bone marrow cells become sensitive to the PANoptotic stimuli due to the aberrant inactivation of inhibitory signaling or ...

PROBE AND SPECTRAL INVESTIGATIONS OF ELECTRIC PROPULSION HALL EFFECT THRUSTER

open access: yesАвіаційно-космічна техніка та технологія, 2017
The work is devoted to the study of a low-power Hall Effect Thruster. The currency of developing and increasing of integral characteristics of Hall Effect Thruster with power consumption less 0,3 kW is substantiated. The main directions of low-power Hall
