Flying through the plasmasphere to optimize low-energy ion measurements

The Juice flyby of Earth in August 2024 gave us the first chance to evaluate the performance of the Jovian Plasma Dynamics and Composition analyzer (JDC) in environments similar to those expected at Jupiter. JDC is one of the sensors belonging to the Particle Environment Package...

An Open Database of Lunar Regolith and Simulants Properties

ABSTRACT Lunar regolith, the layer of unconsolidated material covering the Moon's surface, is central to the science and technology developed for the Moon, notably related to in‐situ science investigations, resource utilization, surface infrastructure, and mobility systems. Howev...

Data-driven comparison of airline passenger flight supply using optimal transport theory

This study develops an optimal transport (OT) framework for measuring pairwise airline supply dissimilarity across heterogeneous route networks. By representing each airline as a distribution of seat capacity or flight frequency across routes and defining route-level transportati...
