Feasibility Study and Preliminary Design of Lunar Reconnaissance Drone

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, David Rodriguez Martinez, Erik Uythoven, Thomas Pfeiffer

With orbiting stations and ground bases planned to be built, we are yet to master the ability to explore long term and long range over areas of the Moon often characterised by an extreme topography, dauntingly low temperatures, and wedged with what are kno ...

Orbital Filter Aiding of a High Sensitivity GPS Receiver for Lunar Missions

Pierre-André Farine, Cyril Botteron, Vincenzo Capuano, Paul David Blunt

Recent studies have shown that weak Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signals could potentially be used to navigate from the Earth to the Moon. This would increase autonomy, robustness and flexibility of the navigation architectures for future luna ...

Heavy Impurity Confinement in Hybrid Operation Scenario Plasmas with a Rotating 1/1 Continuous Mode

Jonathan Graves, Wilfred Anthony Cooper, David Pfefferlé, Madhusudan Raghunathan

In future tokamaks like ITER with tungsten walls, it is imperative to control tungsten accumulation in the core of operational plasmas, especially since tungsten accumulation can lead to radiative collapse and disruption. We investigate the behaviour of tu ...
