Systems engineering and design of a Mars Polar Research Base with a human crew

Claudio Leonardi, Anne-Marlene Rüede, Anton Ivanov, Tatiana Maillard

Mars Polar Ice caps have been known ever since they were first observed by Cassini. Robotic exploration mis- sions, starting with Mariner 9, have confirmed that they are composed of water ice. During later missions, instruments such as Mars Global Surveyor ...

The turbulent pressure support in galaxy clusters revisited

Claudio Gheller

Due to their late formation in cosmic history, clusters of galaxies are not fully in hydrostatic equilibrium and the gravitational pull of their mass at a given radius is expected not to be entirely balanced by the thermal gas pressure. Turbulence may supp ...

Re-imagining the collective space

Valentin Daniel Maurice Bourdon

Reproduction can be perceived in two opposite ways from the urban planning point of view, both as a driving force and as a braking weight. Driving force because urban phenomena are precisely produced by re-producing, and especially by reproducing the funda ...
