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 ...

Surface tension and viscosity of liquid Pd43Cu27Ni10P20 measured in a levitation device under microgravity

Roland Logé, Antonia Neels, Alex Dommann

Here we present measurements of surface tension and viscosity of the bulk glass-forming alloy Pd43Cu27Ni10P20 performed during containerless processing under reduced gravity. We applied the oscillating drop method in an electromagnetic levitation facility ...

Gravity-Independent Oscillate Boiling

Mohamed Farhat, Outi Supponen

Heat transfer in nucleate boiling relies on the detachment and rise of the boiling bubble, in which gravity plays the dominant role. Previous studies showed that in the absence of gravity, the bubble fails to rise, causing the dryout of the heater and sign ...

Virtual Zero Gravity Impact on Internal Gravity Model

Ronan Boulic, Bruno Herbelin, Elisa Canzoneri

This project investigates the impact of a virtual zero gravity experience on the human gravity model. In the planned experiment, subjects are immersed with HMD and full body motion capture in a virtual world exhibiting either normal gravity or the apparent ...

Contained density currents with high volume of release

Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Quentin Theiler

Contained density currents with high volume of release reflect against the boundaries of the reception environment commonly leading to oscillatory flow. These flows exist in sediment clarifiers, compromising their operations, and deposited signatures of co ...

Digital holographic microscopy for the cytomorphological imaging of cells under zero gravity

Christian Depeursinge, Muhammed Fatih Toy, Marcel Egli, Stéphane Richard

Digital holographic microscopy (DHM) has been gaining interest from cell biology community because of its label free nature and quantitative phase signal output. Besides, fast shutter time, image reconstruction by numerical propagation of the wave fields, ...

Enhanced robustness digital holographic microscopy for demanding environment of space biology

Christian Depeursinge, Jonas Kühn, Muhammed Fatih Toy, Marcel Egli, Stéphane Richard

We describe an optimized digital holographic microscopy system (DHM) suitable for high-resolution visualization of living cells under conditions of altered macroscopic mechanical forces such as those that arise from changes in gravitational force. Experime ...

Techniques for generating centimetric drops in microgravity and application to cavitation studies

Mohamed Farhat, Nicolas Dorsaz, Danail Obreschkow, Philipp Kobel, Aurèle De Bosset

This paper describes the techniques and physical parameters used to produce stable centimetric water drops in microgravity, and to study single cavitation bubbles inside such drops (Parabolic Flight Campaigns, European Space Agency ESA). While the main sci ...
