Astrid-2, an advanced microsatellite for auroral research
The successful launch of the Swedish microsatellite Astrid-2 in December 1998 began a new era of auroral research, with advanced microprobes of 30 kg or less used as research tools. Innovative technologies and low-mass solutions were used for the sensors and deployment systems to allow a fairly complete set of scientific instruments within the 10 kg allocated for the scientific payload. A newly...
متن کامل- 1 Connectivity , probabilities and persistence : comparing reserve selection strategies ASTRID
Reserve selection methods are often based on information on species’ occurrence. This can be presence–absence data, or probabilities of occurrence estimated with species distribution models. However, the effect of the choice of distribution model on the outcome of a reserve selection method has been ignored. Here we test a range of species distribution models with three different reserve select...
متن کاملDigital fluxgate magnetometer for the Astrid-2 satellite
The design and performance of the Astrid-2 magnetometer are described. The magnetometer uses mathematical routines, implemented by software for commercially available digital signal processors, to determine the magnetic field from the fluxgate sensor. The sensor is from the latest generation of amorphous metal sensors developed by the Department of Automation at the Technical University of Denm...
متن کاملDon ’ t aim too high : the potential costs of high aspirations Astrid
The higher our aspirations, the higher the probability that we have to adjust them downwards when forming more realistic expectations later on. This paper shows that the costs induced by high aspirations are not trivial. We first develop a theoretical framework to identify the factors that determine the effect of aspirations on expected utility. Then we present evidence from a lab experiment on...
متن کاملBreakthrough Motif: Dolly the Cloned Ewe Meets Astrid the Hybrid Pig
The 'breakthrough' motif today serves as one of the most pervasive temporal abstractions for describing key events in science and medicine. Of late, it has come to refer to commemorative moments including the introduction of signify unequivocal disjunctures in the overall temporal shape of innovation and science, designating all the major 'steps forward' of grand progress narratives (Lyotard, 1...
