Space weather radiation effects on geostationary satellite solid-state power amplifiers
(American Geophysical Union, 2013-08)In order to understand and mitigate the effects of space weather on the performance of geostationary (GEO) communications satellites, we analyze 16 years of archived telemetry data from Inmarsat, the UK-based telecommunications ... -
Mars atmospheric CO2 condensation above the north and south poles as revealed by radio occultation, climate sounder, and laser ranging observations
(Journal Of Geophysical Research-Planets, 2012-07-10)We study the condensation of CO2 in Mars' atmosphere using temperature profiles retrieved from radio occultation measurements from Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) as well as the climate sounding instrument onboard the Mars ... -
Atmospheric characterization of cold exoplanets using a 1.5-m coronagraphic space telescope
(EDP Sciences S.A., 2012-05)High-contrast imaging is currently the only available technique for the study of the thermodynamical and compositional properties of exoplanets in long-period orbits, comparable to the range from Venus to Jupiter. The ...
