Advanced Diagnostic System on Earth Observing One

In this infusion experiment, the Livingstone 2 (L2) model-based diagnosis engine, developed by the Computational Sciences division at NASA Ames Research Center, has been uploaded to the Earth Observing One (EO-1) satellite. L2 is integrated with the Autonomous Sciencecraft Experiment (ASE) which provides an on-board planning capability and a software bridge to the spacecraft’s 1773 data bus. Us...

Prospects for Observing and Localizing Gravitational-Wave Transients with Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo

We present a possible observing scenario for the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo gravitational-wave detectors over the next decade, with the intention of providing information to the astronomy community to facilitate planning for multi-messenger astronomy with gravitational waves. We determine the expected sensitivity of the network to transient gravitational-wave signals, and study the capabi...

Advanced Compulsator Technology

Rotating electrical machines with their inherently high inertial energy density are finding applications in a variety of laboratory based as well as field based pulsed power systems. Of particular interest to the electromagnetic/ electrothermal launch community is the campensated pulsed alternator. This machine has over the past few years shown greater potential, because, besides the high energ...
