Mars Global Surveyor Thermal Emission Spectrometer experiment: Investigation description and surface science results
The Thermal Emission Spectrometer (TES) investigation on Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) is aimed at determining (1) the composition of surface minerals, rocks, and ices; (2) the temperature and dynamics of the atmosphere; (3) the properties of the atmospheric aerosols and clouds; (4) the nature of the polar regions; and (5) the thermophysical properties of the surface materials. These objectives ar...
متن کاملUplink Arraying Experiment with the Mars Global Surveyor Spacecraft
For the first time ever, a pair of 34-m antennas was employed to simultaneously transmit and combine 7.15-GHz (X-band) carriers to a spacecraft in deep space, yielding up to four times greater signal power than either antenna separately. Antenna arrays have the potential to synthesize the equivalent of a very large antenna aperture in a robust and cost-effective manner, by appropriately combini...
متن کاملThe 1998 Mars Global Surveyor Solar Corona Experiment
The Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) spacecraft, launched on November 7, 1996, carries an experimental space-to-ground telecommunications link at 32 GHz (Ka-band) along with the primary 8.4-GHz (X-band) downlink used for operational MGS project activities. The signals are simultaneously transmitted from a 1.5-m-diameter parabolic antenna on MGS and received by 34-meter beamwaveguide (BWG) antennas lo...
متن کاملFuture magnetic fields studies using the Planck surveyor experiment
The Planck mission will permit measurements of the polarization of the cosmic microwave background and of polarized foregrounds such as our own Galaxy with an unprecedented combination of accuracy and completeness. This will provide information on cosmological and galactic magnetic fields. The latter can be studied in detail via nearly Faradayrotation free synchrotron and polarized dust emissio...
متن کاملSoil mechanics: breaking ground.
In soil mechanics, student's models are classified as simple models that teach us unexplained elements of behaviour; an example is the Cam clay constitutive models of critical state soil mechanics (CSSM). 'Engineer's models' are models that elaborate the theory to fit more behavioural trends; this is usually done by adding fitting parameters to the student's models. Can currently unexplained be...
