      Douglas, Ewan; Allan, Gregory; Barnes, Derek; Figura, Joseph S.; Haughwout, Christian A.; e.a. (Proc SPIE, 2017-09)
      The Deformable Mirror Demonstration Mission (DeMi) was recently selected by DARPA to demonstrate in-space operation of a wavefront sensor and Microelectromechanical system (MEMS) deformable mirror (DM) payload on a 6U ...

    • Using the Galileo Solid-State Imaging Instrument as a Sensor of Jovian Energetic Electrons 

      Carlton, Ashley; de Soria-Santacruz Pich, Maria; Kim, Wousik; Jun, Insoo; Cahoy, Kerri (2018-04-16)
      We quantitatively describe the Jovian energetic electron environment using the Solid State Imager (SSI) on the Galileo spacecraft. We post-process raw SSI images by removing the target object and dark current to obtain ...

    • Laser Beacon Tracking for High-Accuracy Attitude Determination 

      Nguyen, Tam; Cahoy, Kerri (29th Annual AIAA/USU Conference on Small Satellites, 2015-08)
      CubeSat pointing capabilities have greatly improved in the past few years, paving the way for more sophisticated science and technology demonstration missions. Advances in attitude determination have led to the development ...
