Storage of Fresh Yam (Dioscorea alata L.) under Controlled Conditions
Authors: González M. A. , Collazo de Rivera A.
Published: October 2020

Freshly harvested "Florido" yam tubers (a highly desirable variety of the species D. alata) were subjected to a temperature of around 32° C. (90° F.) and a relative humidity of 90 percent. Wounded tissues were suberized in about 4 days. This curing may be accomplished either in controlled environmental rooms or under tropical prevailing ambient conditions. The formation of the cork tissue during suberization protects tubers from infection by microorganisms if stored under reduced temperatures. Cured and uncured tubers were stored in a properly ventilated Forma Scientific room at 16° C. ± 1° (59° to 62.9° F.), and a relative humidity of 70 percent. Uncured samples suffered high losses due to physiological breakdown as well as markedly higher weight losses than similarly handled cured ones which showed no signs of internal decay during the storage period. Cured tubers kept under conditions noted above, at temperatures below those prevailing in tropical areas, had the dormant period lengthened by 4 additional months. High-quality tubers can be provided by this means for the fresh market and for processing during the off-season. Although the yam tubers hardened slightly during storage, weight losses were kept at a fairly low level and the palatability of the tubers remained very high, as determined by sensory evaluation.
A Whitefly-Transmitted Golden-Yellow Mosaic Virus of Phaseolus lunatus in Puerto Rico
Authors: Bird Julio , Enrique Pérez J. , Alconero Rodrigo , Vakili Nader G. , Meléndez Pedro Luis
Published: October 2020

A golden-yellow mosaic virus of Phaseolus lunatus was detected recently in Puerto Rico. The virus was transmitted by the whitefly Bemisia tabaci race sidae. It causes a golden-yellow mosaic of beans. It was isolated from bean plantings located in the northwestern and north-central parts of Puerto Rico. Available evidence indicates that the P. lunatus virus is not related, at least closely, to the Puerto Rican whitefly-transmitted mosaic virus of Rhynchosia minima. Symptoms induced by the P. lunatus virus are remarkably similar to those elicited by the Brazilian golden mosaic and the Salvadoran yellow mottle viruses of beans.

Evaluation of Different Feeding Systems in Beef Cattle Production
Authors: Carlo Ismael , Mendoza Radaí , Vélez Jaime
Published: October 2020

Different feeding systems for beef cattle production were studied at the Corozal and Isabela Substations of the Agricultural Experiment Station, University of Puerto Rico. The data for each location were analyzed separately. Observations at Isabela indicate that Pangola-grass soilage is not suitable for rearing beef cattle. Ad libitum feeding of a bulky ration showed no comparative advantage over grazing alone in weight gains of the heifers. Similarly, a finishing period on ad libitum bulky feed was no better than grazing alone. The dressing percentage for the ad libitum bulky-fed group was 64.26 percent compared to 62.30 percent for the group on grazing alone and to 62.23 percent for the group on grazing plus a finishing period on ad libitum bulky feed. There was no significant difference between these two latter groups. The soilage group was not slaughtered. Data from the Corozal Substation indicate that corn supplementation was superior to the other treatments in regard to weight gains of the heifers. However, when economical aspects are considered, corn supplementation may prove unjustifiable. The molasses supplementation was no better than grazing alone. The dressing percentage of the corn supplemented heifers was significantly different from grazing alone (60.70 vs. 59.03 percent) and from grazing plus concentrate supplementation when pastures were poor (60.70 vs. 59.10 percent). Dressing data for the molasses-fed group (60.40 percent) were not statistically analyzed because individual liveweights of heifers were not obtained for reference against the corresponding "hot carcass" weights.

Cord Blood Albumin as a Predictor of Significant Hyperbilirubinemia in Term and Preterm Neonates
Authors: Anurag Singh Chandel  , Ravindra Chittal
Published: October 2020

Background: Jaundice is the most common condition requiring medical attention and readmission. As neonates are discharged within 48 hours of birth, close follow up is very important to look for jaundice. In developing countries, follow up visits are difficult. Therefore, it is important to identify at risk neonates before discharge. This study helps in identifying neonates at risk for hyperbilirubinemia. This study includes both healthy pre-term and full term neonates.Aim & Objective:To find correlation between cord blood albumin level with serum bilirubin level in healthy term and preterm neonates and correlation between maternal serum albumin level with cord blood albumin.Subject and Method:This study included 106 neonates (full-term and pre-term) born in Lilavati Hospital, Mumbai during period of March to December 2017. Result:Out of 106 neonates, 42(39.6%) developed significant hyperbilirubinemia. 17 (58.6%) neonates with cord blood albumin below 2.8 g/dl required phototherapy against 24 (50%) with cord blood albumin between 2.8-3.3 g/dl. In this study, 11 (73.3%) out of 15 pre-term and 6 (42.9%) of 14 full-term neonates with cord blood albumin below 2.8 g/dl developed significant hyperbilirubinemia and required phototherapy. A significant association wasobserved between maternal and cord blood albumin level. Conclusion:Significant association observed between cord blood albuminand tendencies of significant hyperbilirubinemia. So, cord blood albumin can be used as a surrogate marker for screening newborns for development of significant hyperbilirubinemia

Authors: Poorvi  , Roshan Ann Oommen  , Santosh T Soans
Published: October 2020

Background: Transient tachypnea of the newborn (TTNB) is one of the most common causes of perinatal dyspnea and is traditionally diagnosed by chest x-ray. Lung ultrasound is an upcoming tool which is being proved in recent studies to have a better diagnostic capability with the main characteristic feature being the Double Lung Point. Aims & objectives: To define ultrasonographic appearance of TTNB, evaluate its clinical relevance for early diagnosis and compare the outcome with xray and to assess the diagnostic ability of Double lung point.Subjects and Methods:All newborns presenting with tachypnea within 4 hours of life in 1 ½ years of study period. (November 2017-May 2019) were enrolled for study. Methods of collection of data: All newborns fulfilling the inclusion criteria were included as study subjects, At same time CHEST XRAY and LUS were done. Statistical analysis: Fisher’s exact test was used as test of significance for qualitative data. Continuous data was represented as mean and standard deviation. Mann Whitney U test and Kruskul-wallis test was used for subgroup analysis. P value of <0.05 was considered as statistically significant.Result:In study period of 1 ½ years 99 cases which were admitted in NICU with respiratory distress meeting the criteria were included. 60 cases were diagnosed to have TTNB, 34 RDS & 5 Pneumonia. Chest xray and Lung ultrasound (LUS) of these 60 TTNB cases were compared . LUS of TTNB and other cases was also compared for presence of double lung point (DLP). The sensitivity & specificity of DLP in diagnosis of TTNB was noted to be 68 % & 100 % respectively with 100 % Positive predictive value. Thus confirming LUS to be a more reliable diagnostic tool than x-ray.Conclusion:Therefore LUS could be used widely in NICU as 1st line of diagnostic medium in diagnosis of various respiratory conditions and early initiation of treatment accordingly.

Background: Seizures represents the most distinctive signal of the neurological disease in the newborn period. Neonatal seizures are associated with unfavourable short and long term neurodevelopmental outcome. Objective: Our study was aimed at finding incidence, etiological factors, and clinical profile seizures in late preterm and term infants.Subject and Method:A retrospective study was conducted in an intramural tertiary care hospital, IOG, Chennai, India. Detailed antenatal, intrapartum history and baseline characteristics of both mother and infants, clinical details of seizures, investigations and neuroimaging details of 113 late preterm and term neonates with seizures data was collected from January 2018 to December 2018. Results:The incidence of seizures in late preterm and term neonates was 0.76% in our study. Hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy(HIE) was the commonest etiology(50.4%) followed by sepsis(24.8%). Majority of HIE neonates presented within 12 hrs of life (89%). Hypoglycemia(21.2%) was the commonest primary metabolic abnormality followed by hypocalcemia(9.7%). Clonic type was the most commonest type (82.3%) of seizure followed by subtle (73.5%) seizure. Conclusion:Hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy was the commonest etiology along with clonic seizures most commonest types. Hypoglycemia was the most commonest biochemical abnormality.
Neonates with Jaundice A Clinical Profile
Authors: Davis Manuel  , Shajahan R A
Published: October 2020

Background: In the first week of child birth, neonatal jaundice is the most common problem which leads to delayed hospital discharge and re-admissions. Recognising early neonatal hyperbilirubenemia plays a pivotal role in preventing serious complications. The aim of this study was to study the clinical profile and the aetiological factors leading to neonatal jaundice in rural areas.Subject and Method:This study is a prospective observational study  conducted in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and post natal ward . This study was conducted during the period of February 2017 to July 2017. Total 400 neonates were admitted in NICU and post natal ward during this period. Out of them, 100 newborns were having jaundice (Serum bilirubin > 10 mg/dl). 100 cases in total were enrolled in the study. Result:In this study,out of 100 neonates, 70% were males and 30% were females. , 92 were born at term (92%) and remaining 10 were preterm babies (10%). Physiological jaundice constituted 45%, followed by ABO incompatibility constituted 25%, followed by sepsis(1%), Rh incompatibility (8%), idioapathy (8%), prematurity (5%), cephalhematoma (4%), breast feeding (2%), haemolytic anemia (2%) were diagnosed as hereditary spherocytosis. Conclusion:Physiological jaundice is the most common cause of neonatal jaundice followed by ABO incompatibility, sepsis, Rh incompatibility and idiopathic cases. Cephalhematoma, breast feeding jaundice and haemolytic anaemia are the less common causes. Hence, it is required to monitor neonates more appropriately and accurately.
Role of PSOFA-E Score in Predicting the Clinical Outcome of Critically Ill Children
Authors: Bhaskar Gorla  , Vishwas Rao
Published: October 2020

Background: Recently pediatric sequential organ failure assessment (pSOFA) score was adapted and validated in critically ill children. This study was aimed to evaluate the feasibility of addition of echocardiographic parameters to paediatric version of SOFA score (pSOFA-E score) and to adapt and validate with reference to pSOFA score in predicting the mortality of critically ill children.Subjects and Methods:This hospital based prospective, observational, analytical study was conducted in the Department of Paediatrics, A. J Hospital, Mangalore, Karnataka, from November 2017 to November 2019. A total of 74 cases were studied. Result:Most of the children were aged <1 year (41.89%). Majority of the patients (62.16%) improved and 37.84% of the patients expired. The mean and median pSOFA-E scores were 10.53±4.06 and 10 respectively and pSOFA-E score of 5-8 was noted in most of the children (32.43%). Mortality was significantly high in children with pSOFA-E score between 9-12 (39.13%), 13-16 (77.78%), 17-20 (83.33%) (p<0.001). Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) yielded area under curve (AUC) of 0.920 and 0.791 with a cut-off value of 11.5 in predicting mortality. Significantly higher number of children with pSOFA-E score of ≥ 11.5 had positive blood culture (30%). Conclusion:The findings of the present study validate and emphasize that, addition of score devised by requirement of ionotropes to maintain adequate ejection fraction defy simple bedside echocardiography to pSOFA score is highly useful and accurate in discrimination of PICU mortality, morbidity and cardiovascular status/ compromise of body.

Švédův Stůl Cave in the Moravian Karst has been excavated several times since Martin Kříž started the first excavation in 1886. Two parts of the site were re-excavated in 2019. The primary aim was to conduct classical as well as innovative and experimental sedimentological and geoarchaeological investigations of sediments from the discarded spoil heap outside the cave entrance (trench C–D). Intact sediments with a small number of lithic artefacts and a large number of animal bones were also excavated during the 2019
excavation (trench A–B) located under the trench excavated by Bohuslav Klíma’s team in the 1950s. An attempt is being made using pXRF, benchtop ED-XRF and ITRAX techniques to link some of the sedimentary material in the spoil heap (C–D) with the stratified sediments in trench A–B. Animal bones and lithic artefacts were found in both trenches. Numerous samples were collected for geoarchaeological, palaeoenvironmental and dating
analyses and the results will be published in upcoming publications.

Meaningful Work Protects Teachers’ Self-Rated Health under Stressors
Authors: Minkkinen Jaana , Auvinen Elina , Mauno Saija
Published: October 2020

A sense of meaningfulness is one of the most sought?after work characteristics which has been associated with employees’ well-being. This study explored whether meaningful work enhances self-rated health in challenging work context, under the stressors of distractions, unnecessary tasks, and unreasonable tasks. Data was collected from Finnish teachers (N = 1,658) and structural equation modelling was employed with the latent interaction terms. Results showed that meaningful work was associated with better self-rated health and the stressors were associated with poorer self-rated health. Protective potential of meaningful work against stressors was also discovered, as meaningful work mitigated the harm of stressors on self-rated health. These findings indicate that meaningful work acts as an important resource for employees’ self-rated health and helps them to better cope with stressful work conditions, enhancing well-being. The protective quality of meaningful work means that even challenging work context may have less harm for employees’ well-being, if they have a strong sense of meaning in work. The practical implications of the findings for teachers and organizations are discussed.
The Aymara New Year in Cancosa (Tarapacá, Chile). Complementary reciprocity and ethnogenesis through photo-ethnography.
Authors: Mardones Pablo , Diaz Manuel
Published: October 2020

Through a photo-ethnography on the Machaq Mara (Aymara New Year) celebration at the border community of Cancosa in Northern Chile, we reveal how an ethnogenesis process operates. We suggest that the central-Andean foundational principle of complementary reciprocity plays a fundamental role in this process. Our methodology consists of a visual reflective approach through photographic exposure, made possible through a combination of observant participation, the review of archives and interviews on the contemporary genesis of the festivity in Chile. We propose that the Machaq Mara celebration represents a preferential analytical space to identify dynamics of local ethnogenesis, in which ritual complementarity, as well the role of the State and indigenous officials in its process.

Dengan menggunakan definisi humor sebagai sebuah keganjilan yang menyenangkan (playful incongruity), tulisan ini akan menunjukkan beberapa contoh yang mungkin bernada humor dari ajaran antitesis Yesus. Melalui studi ini, diharapkan bukan hanya gambaran yang lama mengenai Yesus diubah, tetapi juga sensitivitas pembaca terhadap humor dalam pengajaran Yesus ditingkatkan

 

Abstract: Was Jesus a humorist? It is interesting to note that for a long time many writers had given a negative answer to such a question. This paper, however, will try to give an alternative answer. Working from the definition of humor as a ‘playful incongruity,’ this paper will show some plausible humor from Jesus’ antitheses. Through this study, it is hoped that not only will the old image of Jesus change, but also the readers’s sensitivity toward humor in Jesus’ teachings is improved.

This paper attempts to contribute to understanding this theme through Paul's soteriological framework.
The Irrevocable View of the Phinehasian Covenant in Light of the Davidic Covenant
Authors: Tuck Seon Chung
Published: October 2020

Abstract: One may easily have the impression that the promise of an everlasting covenant with Phinehas in Numbers 25:13 has been reached under the Sinai covenant. On closer examination of the question, however, general agreement in fact counts for little. Rather, most of the questions on this point appear to be still open. This article re-examines the efficacy of the Phinehasian covenant by comparing parallelly with the Davidic covenant as to show that the covenant carries the same weight as the Davidic covenant. This paper emphasis on God’s everlasting covenant with Phinehas is unconditional that should not be taken as a bilateral covenant under the Sinai covenant. Thus, how did Christ Jesus fulfill this Phinehasian covenant as the culmination of the covenant promise is worth for a further investigation.

Abstrak: Orang mudah mendapatkan kesan bahwa janji kovenan kekal dengan Pinehas dalam Bilangan 25:13 telah digenapi dalam kerangka kovenan Sinai. Namun, melalui penyelidikan yang lebih mendalam, fakta-fakta yang mendukung ternyata sedikit. Sebaliknya, kebanyakan pertanyaan terhadap titik ini nampak masih terbuka. Artikel ini memeriksa kembali kekuatan kovenan Pinehas dengan cara membandingkannya parallel dengan kovenan Daud. Ia memandang bahwa kovenan kekal Allah dengan Daud adalah tidak bersyarat. Signifikansi dari riset ini adalah menguraikan bahwa kovenan Pinehas akhirnya terealisasi dalam Kristus Yesus sebagai kulminasi dari janji kovenan tersebut.

Aspects on Early-Stage Corrosion of Different Zinc Alloys: Wet scCO2-Induced Corrosion
Authors: Saarimaa Ville , Kaleva Aaretti , Levänen Erkki , Väisänen Pasi , Markkula Antti
Published: October 2020

The surface activity of different zinc alloys was evaluated in wet scCO2. The zinc coating surface chemistry governed the corrosion product formation. On zinc and Zn-Al coatings, the Al2O3 layer prevented growth of corrosion products. A Zn-Al-Mg coating showed high initial reactivity due to active Zn-Mg phases. An electrogalvanized coating was very active due to a high ratio of exposed, less dense planes. In a Zn-Fe coating, several Zn-Fe phases were susceptible to wet scCO2 at the same time, triggering the sacrificial effect of Zn. Wet scCO2 is a convenient medium to assess the early-stage corrosion of metal coatings.
A 2600-year high-resolution climate record from Lake Trichonida (SW Greece)

Published: October 2020

Abstract. This paper aims at reconstructing the palaeoclimatic changes during the last 2600 years in southern Greece based on a proxy record from Lake Trichonida. For the first time, we provide a reliable age-depth model and continuous geochemical data for the largest and deepest lake in Greece. We use X-ray fluorescence (XRF) geochemical data supported by discrete mineral analysis based on X-ray diffraction (XRD), grain size distribution, and organic matter content to investigate changes in the lake sedimentary system and identify the major forcing mechanisms. A principal component analysis based on the XRF geochemical composition identifies the variation between carbonate-rich material, precipitating predominantly under drier and/or warmer conditions, and terrigenous sediment input, with it being more prominent during wetter and/or colder conditions. The first principal component (PC1) shows a very strong correlation with the weathering proxy log (Rb∕Sr), and we interpret both proxies as depicting fluctuations in the hydrological conditions. A cluster analysis, conducted on the continuous geochemical and colour parameters, highlights the similarities in the sediment characteristics deposited during wetter phases, notably during 1850–1750, 1500–1400, ca. 1100, and ca. 100 cal BP. When comparing the PC1 Trichonida record to independent records from the Balkans, we find generally concurring patterns on a multi-decadal to centennial scale. We show that phases with wetter conditions at Lake Trichonida coincide with a more negative North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) index, suggesting that the precipitation variability in southern Greece is linked to changes in the NAO atmospheric pattern, as one major driving force. The 2600-year-long sedimentary record of Lake Trichonida contributes to a better understanding of Late Holocene palaeohydrological changes in an important climatic transitional zone in the eastern Mediterranean.

The ExoMars landing mission, which is currently scheduled to launch in 2022, will carry the active gamma ray and neutron spectrometer ADRON-EM and compact passive neutron spectrometer ADRON-RM to the equatorial region of Mars as part of the mission's science payload. The main science objective of the ExoMars mission is dedicated to understanding the evolution and habitability of Mars.ADRON-EM instrument is developed in Space Research Institute (IKI) for active neutron sensing of the soil from the stationary landing platform. The main goal of this experiment is study of elemental composition of the martian subsurface down to 1 m. The instrument consists of two units, the block of detectors and electronics (DE) and the pulse neutron generator (PNG). Measuring post-pulse neutron and gamma ray emission from the soil, one can detect layering stratification of hydrogen and other major elements of the soil.The second complementary instrument ADRON-RM (IKI) is installed on the Rover. It will measure the spatial variability of neutron flux emitted from the martian surface along the traverse. The data processing will convert the raw data into an estimation of bulk water distribution and abundance of neutron absorbing elements, mainly chlorine and iron. The instrument will also provide continuous monitoring of the neutron component of the radiation background on the surface which is necessary to know for planning future human missions to the planet.In the beginning of the surface mission after landing, there is the unique possibility to perform the measurement of subsurface density by both instruments operating together. The data for this analysis will be obtained from different distances between rover and landing platform.Description of ADRON-EM and RM instruments and expected results will be presented.

IntroductionOn September 30, 2022, NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART, [1]) mission will be the first space mission demonstrating the kinetic impactor method for planetary defense. DART will impact Didymos B (a 164±18 m secondary of asteroid (65803) Didymos [2]) with its mass of 650 kg and at a speed of 6.6 km/s. Such impact is expected to change the secondary orbital period by about 10 minutes. DART will carry as a piggyback the Light Italian Cubesat for Imaging of Asteroids (LICIACube, [3]) which will be released from DART ten days before the impact. LICIACube will provide evidence of the impact and will take multiple images of the target up to a distance of ~55 km from the target. The LICIACube narrow and wide angle cameras - LEIA (LICIACube Explorer Imaging for Asteroid) and LUKE (LICIACube Unit Key Explorer), respectively – will capture the post-impact processes coming from in situ events, such as the newly formed crater, the expanding ejecta and the dynamics of its plume.  In particular, the measurement of the motion of the slow (
Dynamical evolution of near-Earth objects

An apparent discrepancy between the number of observed near-Earth objects (NEOs) with small perihelion distances (q) and the number of objects that models predict, has led to the conclusion that asteroids get destroyed at non-trivial distances from the Sun. Consequently, there must be a, possibly thermal, mechanism at play, responsible for breaking up asteroids asteroids in such orbits.We studied the dynamical evolution of ficticious NEOs whose perihelion distance reaches below the average disruption distance q_dis=0.076 au, as suggested by Granvik et al. (2016). To that end, we used the orbital integrations of objects that escaped from the main asteroid belt (Granvik et al. 2017), and entered the near-Earth region (Granvik et al. 2018). First, we investigated a variety of mechanisms that can lower the perihelion distance of an object to a small-enough value. In particular, we considered mean-motion resonances with Jupiter, secular resonances with Jupiter and Saturn (v_5 and v_6) and also the Kozai resonance.We developed a code that calculates the evolution of the critical argument of all the relevant resonances and identifies librations during the last stages of an object's orbital evolution, namely, just before q=q_dis. Any subsequent evolution of the object was disregarded, since we considered it disrupted. The accuracy of our model is ~96%.In addition, we measured the dynamical 'lifetimes' of NEOs when they orbit the innermost parts of the inner Solar System. More precisely, we calculated the total time it takes for the q of each object to go from 0.4 au to q_dis (τ_lq). The outer limit of this range was chosen such because it is a) the approximate semimajor axis of Mercury, and b) an absence of sub-meter-sized boulders with q smaller than this distance has been proposed by Wiegert et al (2020). Combining this measure with the recorded resonances, we can get a sense of the timescale of each q-lowering mechanism.Next, for a more rigorous study of the evolution of the NEOs with q

The study of Near Earth Objects has gathered significant scientific interest over the past few decades. Although the primary drive for this research is the need to discover and quantify potential threats to Earth, we have also gained substantial information about the formation and evolution of the Solar System, regarding both dynamical and physical processes. One such process, by which asteroids that approach very close to the Sun are disintegrated, has been proposed by the most recent population models of NEOs to match the observational data. Our aim is to understand these physical processes therefore we are building an experimental apparatus which will enable us to simulate the extreme conditions of the Solar neighborhood. The experimental setup will consist of a vacuum chamber, wherein asteroid simulant samples will be placed. To simulate the Solar radiation we will make use of a high power Xenon lamp able to deliver a beam of about 50 W/cm2 of maximum power on the sample. To expand the parameter space we will use a periodic shutter to emulate the rotation of the asteroid, and a power attenuator to probe different heliocentric distances. The process will be monitored by regular and high-speed cameras in order to record and study the production and velocities of ejecta. Thermocouples will also be used to log the temperature changes of the samples, and a mass spectrometer fitted on the chamber will enable us to determine the composition of the reaction products.Apart from our main goal, which is to study the disruption of NEOs close to the Sun, we believe that the capabilities of our experimental setup extend beyond that. We believe it could offer an opportunity for a number of different experiments, such as tests of spacecraft composites or alloys, and we welcome collaborations to work on new ideas.
What is CHEOPS?
Authors: Isaak Kate
Published: October 2020

Launched on 18 December 2019, CHEOPS (CHaracterising ExOPlanet Satellite) is the first exoplanet mission dedicated to the search for transits of exoplanets by means of ultrahigh precision photometry of bright stars already known to host planets. It is S-(small) class mission in ESA’s Cosmic Vision 2015-2025, and a partnership between Switzerland and ESA, with important contributions from 10 other member states.CHEOPS will provide the unique capability of determining accurate radii for a subset of planets in the super-Earth to Neptune mass range, for which masses have already been estimated from ground- based spectroscopic surveys. It will also provide precision radii for new planets discovered by ground- and space-based transit surveys, including TESS. By combining known masses with CHEOPS sizes, it will be possible to determine accurate densities for these smaller planets, providing key insight into their composition and internal structure. By identifying transiting exoplanets with high potential for in-depth characterisation – e.g. those that are potentially rocky and have thin atmospheres - CHEOPS will also provide prime targets for future instruments suited to the spectroscopic characterisation of exoplanetary atmospheres.80 % of the obsering time in the 3.5 year nominal mission lifetime on the satellite is dedicated to the Guaranteed Time Observing Programme defined by the CHEOPS Science Team. The remaining 20% is available to the Community through the ESA Guest Observers Programme, which comprises annual calls and a discretionary time component.    In this first poster in a series of three, we present an overview of the mission, including its capabilities and scientific performances.
Science Autonomy and Intelligent Systems on the ExoMars Mission

The majority of planetary missions return only one thing: data. The volume of data returned from distant planets is typically minuscule compared to Earth-based investigations, volume decreasing further from more distant solar system missions. Meanwhile, the data produced by planetary science instruments continue to grow along with mission ambitions. Moreover, the time required for decisional data to reach science and operations teams on Earth, and for commands to be sent, also increases with distance. To maximize the value of each bit, within these mission time and volume constraints, instruments need to be selective about what they send back to Earth. We envision instruments that analyze science data onboard, such that they can adjust and tune themselves, select the next operations to be run without requiring ground-in-the-loop, and transmit home only the most interesting or time-critical data.
Recent developments have demonstrated the tremendous potential of robotic explorers for planetary exploration and for other extreme environments. We believe that science autonomy has the potential to be as important as robotic autonomy (e.g., roving terrain) in improving the science potential of these missions because it directly optimizes the returned data. On- board science data processing, interpretation, and reaction, as well as prioritization of telemetry, therefore, comprise new, critical challenges of mission design.

We present a first step toward this vision: a machine learning (ML) approach for analyzing science data from the Mars Organic Molecule Analyzer (MOMA) instrument, which will land on Mars within the ExoMars rover Rosalind Franklin in 2023. MOMA is a dual-source (laser desorption and gas chromatograph) mass spectrometer that will search for past or present life on the Martian surface and subsurface through analysis of soil samples. We use data collected from the MOMA flight-like engineering model to develop mass-spectrometry- focused machine learning techniques. We first apply unsupervised algorithms in order to cluster input data based on inherent patterns and separate the bulk data into clusters. Then, optimized classification algorithms designed for MOMA’s scientific goals provide information to the scientists about the likely content of the sample. This will help the scientists with their analysis of the sample and decision-making process regarding subsequent operations.

We used MOMA data to develop initial machine learning algorithms and strategies as a proof of concept and to design software to support intelligent operations of more autonomous systems in development for future exploratory missions. This data characterization and categorization is the first step of a longer-term objective to enable the spacecraft and instruments themselves to make real-time adjustments during operations, thus optimizing the potentially complex search for life in our solar system and beyond.
