We have performed the first ever combined-element stable isotopic measurements of extraterrestrial molecules. Methane from two carbonaceous chondrites, Murchison and Cold Bokkeveld, was measured for its hydrogen and carbon isotopic compositions. The combin ...
We measured the elemental compositions of material from 23 particles in aerogel and from residue in seven craters in aluminum foil that was collected during passage of the Stardust spacecraft through the coma of comet 81P/Wild 2. These particles are chemic ...
Within the European project SOLABS (Development of unglazed coloured solar absorbers) a novel performing unglazed metal collector has been developed, using a coloured absorber and with special focus on the architectural integration of the solar system. The ...
Chemical analyses and Raman micro-spectroscopy have identified whitlockite (water- and halogen-free phosphate) in mantle xenoliths from Siberia. Whitlockite has not previously been reported from terrestrial mantle-derived rocks, but is the most common acce ...
In this work, we evaluate the exploration of the solar system by ad-hoc wireless sensor networks (WSN), i.e. networks where all nodes (either moving or stationary) can both provide and relay data. The two aspects of self-organization and localization are t ...
Hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen isotopic compositions are heterogeneous among comet 81P/Wild 2 particle fragments; however, extreme isotopic anomalies are rare, indicating that the comet is not a pristine aggregate of presolar materials. Nonterrestr ...
The Stardust spacecraft collected thousands of particles from comet 81P/Wild 2 and returned them to Earth for laboratory study. The preliminary examination of these samples shows that the nonvolatile portion of the comet is an unequilibrated assortment of ...
Densification is generally assumed to exert negative impacts on urban daylight and solar potential, however, this paper demonstrates the possibilities to increase usable floor area and plot ratio without undermining the opportunities of daylight and solar ...
Chondrules, which are the major constituent of chondritic meteorites, are believed to have formed during brief, localized, repetitive melting of dust ( probably caused by shock waves(1,2)) in the protoplanetary disk around the early Sun. The ages of primit ...
Le but de ce travail est de repenser la politique documentaire d’une bibliothèque spécialisée en informatique qui est destinée à des étudiants et à des chercheurs à un niveau de recherche avancée. Une réflexion globale sur la pratique des acquisitions et l ...
