Optical and radiometric models of the NOMAD instrument part II: the infrared channels - SO and LNO
(Optics Express, 2016-02-16)
NOMAD is a suite of three spectrometers that will be launched in 2016 as part of the joint ESA-Roscosmos ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter mission. The instrument contains three channels that cover the IR and UV spectral ranges ...
Evolution of Occator Crater on (1) Ceres
(The Astronomical Journal, 2017-02-17)
The dwarf planet Ceres (diameter 939 km) is the largest object in the main asteroid belt. Recent investigations suggest that Ceres is a thermally evolved, volatile-rich body with potential geological activity, a body which ...
Small-scale methane dispersion modelling for possible plume sources on the surface of Mars
(Geophysical Research Letters, 2012-10-11)
Intense interest in the characteristics of a methane source on Mars has been spurred by recent observations of a plume structure. The current NASA Mars Science Laboratory and future landers and orbiters will be tasked with ...
Surface albedo and spectral variability of Ceres
(The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2016-01-29)
Previous observations suggested that Ceres has active, but possibly sporadic, water outgassing as well as possibly varying spectral characteristics over a timescale of months. We used all available data of Ceres collected ...
A chrono-geographic look at Mesolithic burials: an initial study
(Landesamt für Denkmalpflege und Archäologie Sachsen-Anhalt, 2016)
Over the past decade we have focused on two interrelated topics within Mesolithic burial studies, the relationship between burial number and burial date, and the chronology of Mesolithic sites with burials. Related to this ...
Oxo Crater on (1) Ceres: Geological History and the Role of Water-ice
(The Astronomical Journal, 2017-08-04)
Dwarf planet Ceres (∅ ∼ 940 km) is the largest object in the main asteroid belt. Investigations suggest that Ceres is a thermally evolved, volatile-rich body with potential geological activity, a body that was never ...
