Transport of dust across the Solar System: Constraints on the spatial origin of individual micrometeorites from cosmic-ray exposure

The origin of micrometeorites (MMs) from asteroids and comets is well-established, but the relative contribution from these two classes remains poorly resolved. Likewise, determining the precise origin of individual MMs is an open challenge. Here, cosmic-r ...

Blue ice in Antarctica: The gateway to travel in time and space

Devis Tuia, Benjamin Alexander Kellenberger, Marc Conrad Russwurm, Veronica Tollenaar

Antarctica has unique areas that expose blue ice, which contrast to most of the continent (~98%) that is covered by snow. Some of these blue ice areas (BIAs) contain meteorite concentrations and (very) old ice, making them very valuable for understanding o ...

Euclid: Identification of asteroid streaks in simulated images using deep learning

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Yi Wang, Richard Massey

The material composition of asteroids is an essential piece of knowledge in the quest to understand the formation and evolution of the Solar System. Visual to near-infrared spectra or multiband photometry is required to constrain the material composition o ...

The Effects of Planetary and Stellar Parameters on Brittle Lithospheric Thickness

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, Michael Heap

The thicknesss of the brittle lithosphere—the outer portion of a planetary body that fails via fracturing— plays a key role in the geological processes of that body. The properties of both a planet and its host star can influence that thickness, and the po ...

LSST: From Science Drivers to Reference Design and Anticipated Data Products

David Atienza Alonso, Darong Huang, Jonathan Andrew Blazek, Shahram Khazaei, Anja Annemone Becker, Shikhar Tuli, Michelle Miller, Guillaume Blanc, Abhijit Saha, Wei Cui, Christopher Montgomery, Darko Jevremovic

We describe here the most ambitious survey currently planned in the optical, the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST). The LSST design is driven by four main science themes: probing dark energy and dark matter, taking an inventory of the solar system, ex ...

Criteria and policies to master the visual impact of solar systems in urban environments: The LESO-QSV method

Christian Roecker, Maria Cristina Munari Probst

Increased use of solar collectors in buildings is necessary but poses major challenges in existing built environ ments, especially where architectural quality is an issue. The large size of solar systems at the building scale requires careful planning, as ...

Exergoeconomic optimization of a solar driven system with reverse osmosis desalination unit and phase change material thermal energy storages

Hossein Pourrahmani

The goal of the current article is to suggest a novel solar system to produce power, fresh water, and cooling. As solar energy is unavailable at nights, a novel thermal storage system (TES) based on phase change material (PCM) is used to store the required ...

A large planetary body inferred from diamond inclusions in a ureilite meteorite

Philippe Gillet, Cécile Hébert, Marco Cantoni, Emad Oveisi, James Badro, Farhang Nabiei, Teresa Katharina Dennenwaldt

Planetary formation models show that terrestrial planets are formed by the accretion of tens of Moon-to Mars-sized planetary embryos through energetic giant impacts. However, relics of these large proto-planets are yet to be found. Ureilites are one of the ...

From 2D to 3D Characterization of Materials Subjected to Extreme Pressure and Temperature Conditions

Farhang Nabiei

Planetesimal were the first planetary objects to form in the solar system, which later grew to make the proto-planets. Most of these bodies were differentiated as a result of internal heating. Several differentiated bodies have, then, been accreted followi ...

Quantum optomechanics at room temperature

Hendrik Schütz

Why are classical theories often sufficient to describe the physics of our world even though everything around us is entirely composed of microscopic quantum systems? The boundary between these two fundamentally dissimilar theories remains an unsolved prob ...

Single particle maximum likelihood reconstruction from superresolution microscopy images

Suliana Manley, Julia Gunzenhäuser

Point localization superresolution microscopy enables fluorescently tagged molecules to be imaged beyond the optical diffraction limit, reaching single molecule localization precisions down to a few nanometers. For small objects whose sizes are few times t ...

Evidence from Tm anomalies for non-CI refractory lithophile element proportions in terrestrial planets and achondrites

Philippe Gillet

Thulium is a heavy rare earth element (REE) whose geochemical behavior is intermediate between Er and Yb, and that is not expected to be decoupled from these elements during accretion of planetary bodies and geological processes. However, irregularities in ...
