Aerodynamic Particle Sizer spectrometer (APS) aerosol number concentrations, measured in the Swiss container during MOSAiC 2019/2020

Julia Schmale, Nora Bergner, Ivo Fabio Beck, Lubna Dada

This dataset contains particle number size distributions between 1.06-16.1 μm (aerodynamic diameter) and total concentration averaged to 1 min time resolution, measured with a commercial Aerodynamic Particle Sizer spectrometer (APS model 3321, TSI Incorpor ...

H∞ and μ-Synthesis for Nanosatellites Rendezvous and Docking

Volker Gass, Camille Sébastien Pirat

In this brief, the nanosatellite rendezvous and docking problem is tackled. It was never attempted for small spacecraft, as critical technologies, such as six-degree-of-freedom (DoF) micropropulsion systems, have only recently become available due to advan ...

Rollable Multisegment Dielectric Elastomer Minimum Energy Structures for a Deployable Microsatellite Gripper

Herbert Shea, Volker Gass, Samuel Rosset, Jun Shintake, Muriel Richard, Irina Gavrilovich, Oluwaseun Adelowo Araromi

Debris in space presents an ever-increasing problem for spacecraft in Earth orbit. As a step in the mitigation of this issue, the CleanSpace One (CSO) microsatellite has been proposed. Its mission is to perform active debris removal of a decommissioned nan ...

Covering Cubes and the Closest Vector Problem

Friedrich Eisenbrand, Martin Niemeier, Nicolai Hähnle

We provide the currently fastest randomized (1+epsilon)-approximation algorithm for the closest vector problem in the infinity-norm. The running time of our method depends on the dimension n and the approximation guarantee epsilon by 2^(O(n))(log(1/epsilon ...

MEMS for pico- to micro-satellites

Herbert Shea

MEMS sensors, actuators, and sub-systems can enable an important reduction in the size and mass of spacecrafts, first by replacing larger and heavier components, then by replacing entire subsystems, and finally by enabling the microfabrication of highly in ...

MEMS for space

Nico de Rooij, Danick Briand, Herbert Shea, Sebastian Gautsch, Wilfried Noell

Future space exploration will emphasize on cost effectiveness and highly focused mission objectives. Missions costs are directly proportional to its total weight, thus, the trend will be to replace bulky and heavy components of space carriers, communicatio ...
