Searching Minor Planets and Photometric Quality of 60cm Reflector in Gimhae Astronomical Observatory by Sang Hyun Lee, Yong-Woo Kiang, Kyung-Hoon Lee

“…To investigate the detection possibility of unknown object as astroid, we observed the near area of the opposition in the ecliptic plane. And we discussed the result. Our result show that it can be possible to detect minor planets in solar system brighter than V ˜18.3mag. and it can carry out photometric study brighter than V~16mag. in Gimhae Astronomical Observatory. …”

Spherical Harmonic Representation of Energetic Neutral Atom Flux Components Observed by IBEX by P. Swaczyna, M. A. Dayeh, E. J. Zirnstein

Diffractive Sail-Based Displaced Orbits for High-Latitude Environment Monitoring by Marco Bassetto, Giovanni Mengali, Alessandro A. Quarta

“…This peculiarity enables the diffractive sail to maintain a family of circular displaced non-Keplerian orbits, each of which is characterized by unique values of radius and a lightness number for an assigned value of spacecraft displacement relative to the Ecliptic. A comparison with the ideal reflecting sail shows that the diffractive sail performs better because for the same overall spacecraft mass, the latter needs about <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mn>30</mn><mo>%</mo></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula> less surface area exposed to the Sun. …”

Visualization of Synchronous or Asynchronous Release of Single Synaptic Vesicle in Active-Zone-Like Membrane Formed on Neuroligin-Coated Glass Surface by Junichiro Funahashi, Hiromitsu Tanaka, Tomoo Hirano

“…Using cultured hippocampal neurons, we induced formation of active-zone-like membranes (AZLMs) directly adjacent and parallel to a glass surface coated with neuroligin, and imaged Syp fused to super-ecliptic pHluorin (Syp-SEP) after its translocation to the plasma membrane from a synaptic vesicle using total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy (TIRFM). …”

Acceleration of an interplanetary shock through the magnetosheath: a global hybrid simulation by C. Moissard, C. Moissard, P. Savoini, D. Fontaine, R. Modolo

“…The ‘planet’ is modelled as a magnetic dipole with no tilt: the dipole is in the GSE’s z direction. In the ecliptic plane (Oxy), which contains the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF), the magnetic field lines are piling up against the magnetopause, and the velocity of the interplanetary shock decreases from 779 ± 48 km/s in the solar wind down to 607 ± 48 km/s in the magnetosheath. …”
