MODIS has 20 reflective solar bands (RSB), covering the VIS, NIR, and SWIR spectral regions. They are calibrated onorbit using a solar diffuser (SD) panel, made of space-grade Spectralon. The SD bi-directional reflectance factor (BRF) was characterized pre-launch by the instrument vendor with reference to the NIST reflectance standard. Its on-orbit degradation is tracked by an on-board solar di...

Successfully launched on 30 May 2016, ZY3-02 is the first Chinese surveying and mapping satellite equipped with a lightweight laser altimeter. Calibration is necessary before the laser altimeter becomes operational. Laser footprint location prediction is the first step in calibration that is based on ground infrared detectors, and it is difficult because the sample frequency of the ZY3-02 laser...

Study of the anatomy of the orbit, its contents and surrounding structures allows the anaesthetist to understand how to insert needles within the orbit. Local anaesthetics may thereby be deposited in sites where they may spread to block sensory and motor nerves to provide anaesthesia and akinesia, without damaging the globe, blood vessels, lacrimal apparatus, muscles or the optic nerve and its ...

purpose : to report a patient with orbital tuberculosis (tb) without any history of systemic involvement case report : a 41-year-old afghani man who presented with progressive painless swelling in lateral side of the left upper eyelid and diplopia. he did not have history of fever or pulmonary disease. histopathology revealed a granulomatous inflammation with caseation necrosis. microbiological...

purpose : we describe clinical and radiologic findings and surgical outcome of an orbital dermoid cyst located in the superior oblique muscle tendon. this unusual location for dermoid tumors has not been reported previously. case report : a 15-year-old girl referred to us with an orbital mass in superonasal quadrant of the left orbit reportedly to be present from birth. computed tomography reve...

The purpose of this rersearch is to analyze the effective application of particular earth orbits in dynamical modeling of relative motion problem between two spacecraft. One challenge in implementing these motions is maintaining the relations as it experiences orbital perturbations (zonal harmonics J2 and J3), most notably due to the Earth’s oblateness. Certain aspects of the orbital geometry c...

The study of differential equations is useful in to analyze the possible past or future with help of present information. In this paper, the behavior of solutions has been analyzed around the equilibrium points for Gause model. Finally, some results are worked out to exist the stable periodic orbit for mentioned predator-prey system.
