Microgravity induces overconfidence in perceptual decision-making

Davide Scaramuzza, Christian Pfeiffer, Leyla Loued-Khenissi

Does gravity affect decision-making? This question comes into sharp focus as plans for interplanetary human space missions solidify. In the framework of Bayesian brain theories, gravity encapsulates a strong prior, anchoring agents to a reference frame via ...

QUIC: Opportunities and threats in SATCOM

Emmanuel Qays Dubois, Ludovic Bernard Gérard Thomas

This article proposes a discussion on the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats related to the deployment of QUIC end-to-end from a satellite-operator point-of-view. The deployment of QUIC is an opportunity for improving the quality of experienc ...

Remote Sensing meets Deep Learning: Exploiting Spatio-Temporal-Spectral Satellite Images for Early Wildfire Detection

Thành Tâm Nguyên

Wildfires are getting more severe and destructive. Due to their fast-spreading nature, wildfires are often detected when already beyond control and consequently cause billion-scale effects in a very short time. Governments are looking for remote sensing me ...

PaRiS: Causally Consistent Transactions with Non-blocking Reads and Partial Replication

Willy Zwaenepoel, Diego Didona, Kristina Spirovska

Geo-replicated data platforms are at the backbone of several large-scale online services. Transactional Causal Consistency (TCC) is an attractive consistency level for building such platforms. TCC avoids many anomalies of eventual consistency, eschews the ...

High Gain Dual-Band Beam-Steering Transmit Array for Satcom Terminals at Ka-Band

Juan Ramon Mosig, Joana Rita Alves dos Santos Silva

Transmit array design is more challenging for dualband operation than for single band, due to the independent 360 degrees phase wrapping jumps needed at each band when large electrical length compensation is involved. This happens when aiming at large gain ...

SATELLITE CONSTELLATION DESIGN FOR THE SOLVE MISSION INVESTIGATING DIURNAL CYCLES OF VEGETATION PHENOMENA

Anton Ivanov, Luzius Gregor Kronig, Olivier Ladislas Alain de Weck

This paper discusses the problem of finding an optimal satellite constellation for the SOLVE (Satellites Observing Lakes and Vegetation Environments) Mission. A key requirement of this mission is a temporal resolution of several observations per day. A sem ...

SALSA: a tool to estimate the stray light contamination for low-Earth orbit observatories

Thibault Adrien Kuntzer

Stray light contamination reduces considerably the precision of photometric of faint stars for low altitude space-borne observatories. When measuring faint objects, the necessity of coping with stray light contamination arises in order to avoid systematic ...

Does the Surface Matter? Hydrogen-Bonded Chain Formation of an Oxalic Amide Derivative in a Two- and Three-Dimensional Environment

Klaus Kern, Harald Brune, Uta Schlickum, Marta Canas Ventura, Sylvain Clair

We report on a multi-technique investigation of the supramolecular organisation of N,N-diphenyl oxalic amide under differently dimensioned environments, namely three-dimensional (3D) in the bulk crystal, and in two dimensions on the Ag(111) surface as well ...
