Kowalski, M.; Schmidt, F.; Giuranna, M. +3 more

The Planetary Fourier Spectrometer (PFS) onboard Mars Express (MEx) is the instrument with the highest spectral resolution observing Mars from orbit since January 2004. It permits studying the atmospheric structure, major and minor compounds. The present time version of the calibration is limited by the effects of mechanical vibration, currently n…

Rendezvous with a comet

DOI: 10.1088/2058-7058/27/10/32 Bibcode: 2014PhyW...27j..26T

Taylor, Matt

After making a successful rendezvous with Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko earlier this year, Europe's Rosetta craft is now riding alongside this celestial body and next month is set to land a probe on its surface. Matt Taylor describes the excitement of this unique project and the scientific insights that it hopes to achieve.

Velocities and Linewidths in the Network and Cell Interiors of a Polar Coronal Hole Compared with the Quiet Sun

DOI: 10.1007/s11207-013-0352-2 Bibcode: 2014SoPh..289..793R

Raju, K. P.; Bromage, B. J. I.

The relative Doppler velocities and linewidths in a polar coronal hole and the nearby quiet-Sun region have been obtained from the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO)/Coronal Diagnostic Spectrometer (CDS) observations using emission lines originating at different heights in the solar atmosphere from the lower transition region (TR) to the lo…

Willner, K.; Tao, Y.; Muller, J. -P. +4 more

This paper presents a wide range of research and processing results in the area of multi-resolution orbital data co-registration, multiresolution ground 3D reconstruction, and orbit-to-ground data fusion, achieved within the EU-FP7 PRoVisG and PRoViDE project. We focus on three NASA rover missions, MER-A, MER-B, and MSL, to provide examples of aut…

Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko and Cometary Biology

Bibcode: 2014JCos...2412032W

Wickramasinghe, Chandra

The long-awaited rendezvous of ROSETTA with its target Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko is expected at best to give indirect evidence for cometary panspermia and the presence of microorganisms in comets. Prodigious out gasing of water vapour observed at large heliocentric distances, low albedo and a terrain of alternating rough and smooth areas alr…

Long-term X-ray timing of the double pulsar PSR J0737-3039

DOI: 10.1002/asna.201312040 Bibcode: 2014AN....335..324I

Pellizzoni, A.; Egron, E.; Iacolina , M. N.

The relativistic double neutron star binary PSR J0737-3039 is a truly unique system offering the diagnostics of two interacting radio pulsars in a short orbital period system. Clear evidences of orbital phase-dependent interactions between the two neutron stars are seen both in radio and X-rays observations. We present the timin…
