FIRST Explorer -- An innovative low-cost passive formation-flying system
Jan E. S. Bergman, Richard J. Blott, Alistair B. Forbes +3
Formation-flying studies to date have required continuous and minute corrections of the orbital elements and attitudes of the spacecraft.This increases the complexity, and associat…
Excitations of Ellipsoid Packings near Jamming
Z. Zeravcic, N. Xu, A. J. Liu +2
We study the vibrational modes of three-dimensional jammed packings of soft ellipsoids of revolution as a function of particle aspect ratio and packing fraction. At the jamming…
Two distant brown dwarfs in the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey Deep Extragalactic Survey Data Release 2
N. Lodieu, P. D. Dobbie, N. R. Deacon +2
We present the discovery of two brown dwarfs in the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) Deep Extragalactic Survey (DXS) Data Release 2. Both objects were selected photometrical…
On the protection of extrasolar Earth-like planets around K/M stars against galactic cosmic rays
J. -M. Grießmeier, A. Stadelmann, J. L. Grenfell +2
Previous studies have shown that extrasolar Earth-like planets in close-in habitable zones around M-stars are weakly protected against galactic cosmic rays (GCRs), leading to a str…
The LOFAR EoR Data Model: (I) Effects of Noise and Instrumental Corruptions on the 21-cm Reionization Signal-Extraction Strategy
Panagiotis Labropoulos, Leon V. E. Koopmans, Vibor Jelic +11
A number of experiments are set to measure the 21-cm signal of neutral hydrogen from the Epoch of Reionization (EoR). The common denominator of these experiments are the large data…
