CODEX weak lensing mass catalogue and implications on the mass-richness relation

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Huanyuan Shan

The COnstrain Dark Energy with X-ray clusters (CODEX) sample contains the largest flux limited sample of X-ray clusters at 0.35 < z < 0.65. It was selected from ROSAT data in the 10 000 square degrees of overlap with BOSS, mapping a total number of 2770 hi ...

H∞ and μ-Synthesis for Nanosatellites Rendezvous and Docking

Volker Gass, Camille Sébastien Pirat

In this brief, the nanosatellite rendezvous and docking problem is tackled. It was never attempted for small spacecraft, as critical technologies, such as six-degree-of-freedom (DoF) micropropulsion systems, have only recently become available due to advan ...

Microscale physico-chemical interactions between hydrodynamically confined liquids and immersed biological surfaces

David Philipp Taylor

In contrast to conventional microfluidics, where liquids are typically manipulated within closed channels, open-space microfluidics has emerged as a new class of techniques that are well suited for ver-satile interaction with biological substrates. In part ...

The Gaia mission

Stephan Morgenthaler, Mikaël Martino, Shuangqing Liao, Daniela Werner

Gaia is a cornerstone mission in the science programme of the European Space Agency (ESA). The spacecraft construction was approved in 2006, following a study in which the original interferometric concept was changed to a direct-imaging approach. Both the ...
