Object classification on video data of meteors and meteor-like phenomena: algorithm and data
Rabea Sennlaub, Martin Hofmann, Mike Hankey +4
Every moment, countless meteoroids enter our atmosphere unseen. The detection and measurement of meteors offer the unique opportunity to gain insights into the composition of our s…
Low-cost precursor of an interstellar mission
René Heller, Guillem Anglada-Escudé, Michael Hippke +1
The solar photon pressure provides a viable source of thrust for spacecraft in the solar system. Theoretically it could also enable interstellar missions, but an extremely small ma…
Periodic Spectral Modulations Arise from Non-random Spacing of Spectral Absorption Lines
Michael Hippke
In recent publications, Borra (2013); Borra & Trottier (2016); Borra (2017) claimed the discovery of ultra-short (s) optical pulses originating from stars and galaxies,…
Photogravimagnetic assists of light sails: a mixed blessing for Breakthrough Starshot?
Duncan H. Forgan, René Heller, Michael Hippke
Upon entering a star system, light sails are subject to both gravitational forces and radiation pressure, and can use both in concert to modify their trajectory. Moreover, stars po…
