Real-Time, Flight-Ready, Non-Cooperative Spacecraft Pose Estimation Using Monocular Imagery
Kevin Black, Shrivu Shankar, Daniel Fonseka +3
A key requirement for autonomous on-orbit proximity operations is the estimation of a target spacecraft's relative pose (position and orientation). It is desirable to employ monocu…
A Pipeline for Vision-Based On-Orbit Proximity Operations Using Deep Learning and Synthetic Imagery
Carson Schubert, Kevin Black, Daniel Fonseka +5
Deep learning has become the gold standard for image processing over the past decade. Simultaneously, we have seen growing interest in orbital activities such as satellite servicin…
A convolutional neural network approach for reconstructing polarization information of photoelectric X-ray polarimeters
Takao Kitaguchi, Kevin Black, Teruaki Enoto +6
This paper presents a data processing algorithm with machine learning for polarization extraction and event selection applied to photoelectron track images taken with X-ray polarim…
High-Precision X-ray Timing of Three Millisecond Pulsars with NICER: Stability Estimates and Comparison with Radio
J. S. Deneva, P. S. Ray, A. Lommen +45
The Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) is an X-ray astrophysics payload on the International Space Station. It enables unprecedented high-precision timing of millis…
White Paper for Blazar Observations with a GEMS-like X-ray Polarimetry Mission
Henric Krawczynski, Lorella Angelini, Matthew Baring +27
In this document, we describe the scientific potential of blazar observations with a X-ray polarimetry mission like GEMS (Gravity and Extreme Magnetism SMEX). We describe five blaz…
White Paper on GEMS Study of Polarized X-rays from Neutron Stars
Pranab Ghosh, Lorella Angelini, Matthew Baring +27
We examine the expected X-ray polarization properties of neutron-star X-ray sources of various types, e.g., accretion and rotation powered pulsars, magnetars, and low-mass X-ray bi…
