Accurately constraining the formation and evolution of the lunar magnesian suite is key to understanding the earliest periods of magmatic crustal building that followed accretion and primordial differentiation of the Moon. However, the origin and evolution ...
In this paper, the fabrication and use of stencils for full-wafer scale shadow mask (stencil) lithography is described. The stencils fabricated via microelectromechanical systems are mechanically stabilized and show clearly reduced stress-induced membrane ...
Recently at JET a pure helium campaign has been performed. The exploration of the density limit in L-mode limiter as well as L-mode and H-mode diverted plasmas was one of the main objectives. In L-mode plasmas the density can be increased until the total r ...
Lunar resources is one of the many new putative business models that may transform space logistics. Yet it competes with Earth-based resources, in a complex trade-off involving both tech development & socioeconomic dynamics. This study models the size vs. ...
In this report, a preliminary design study of a compact lunar reconnaissance drone module which will assist exploration rovers is presented. It is designed to assist future exploratory rover missions in difficult environments such as PSRs or extreme topogr ...
An advanced oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) ferritic steel with very fine oxide particles has been homogeneously implanted with helium under uniaxial tensile stresses from 20 to 250 MPa to a maximum dose of about 0.38 dpa (1650 appm-He) with displaceme ...
Human deep space exploration is presented with multiple challenges, such as the reliable, efficient and sustainable operation of life support systems. The production and recycling of oxygen, carbon dioxide (CO2) and fuels are hereby key, as a resource resu ...
The radiation resistance of two promising ferritic ODS steels, PM2000 and 15CRA-3, is studied. More specifically, the effect of helium on these materials is studied by examining the swelling and hardening after He+ implantation to ∼1 dpa at 4000 appm/dpa. ...
