description: The German Aerospace Center\'s Institute of Space Propulsion in Larnpoldshausen has morethana decade of experience in green propellant research and green propulsion hardware development. Over time, thrusters and propulsion hardware weredeveloped in-house and the TRL of the hardware was increased step by step. Currently, the two most promising technologies are the HyNOx bipropellant technology, based on nitrous oxide and hydrocarbon fuels, as well as the hypergolic HIP_ 11 technology. To commercialize the two propulsion technologies, a DLR spin-off called InSpacePropulsion Technologies will be founded in summer2023. The preparation of the spin-off is currently funded by the Helmholtz Association and DLR This paper gives an overview on the development of the two technologies and their development status.

description: Let $f:\mathbb{R}^k\to \mathbb{R}$ be a measurable function, and let $\{U_i\}_{i\in\mathbb{N}}$ be a sequence of i.i.d. random variables. Consider the random process $Z_i=f(U_{i},...,U_{i+k-1})$. We show that for all $\ell$, there is a positive probability, uniform in $f$, for $Z_1,...,Z_\ell$ to be monotone. We give upper and lower bounds for this probability, and draw corollaries for $k$-block factor processes with a finite range. The proof is based on an application of combinatorial results from Ramsey theory to the realm of continuous probability.

description: Storage replication is one of the essential requirements for network environments. While many forms of Network Attached Storage (NAS), Storage Area Networks (SAN) and other forms of network storage exist, there is a need for a reliable synchronous storage replication technique between distant sites (less than 1 mile). Such technology allows setting new standards for network failover and failback systems for virtual servers; specifically, addressing the growing need for effective disaster recovery (DR) planning. The purpose of this manuscript is to identify newest technologies such as SAN/iQ and Storage VMotion that allow for remote storage synchronous replication for virtual servers. This study provides an analysis and a comparison of various SANs that create solutions for enterprise needs. Additionally, the interoperability of these technologies with the industry s leading product VMware ESX Server will be discussed.

description: Numerical simulations have been performed to reproduce the flow around an aircraft with installed engine and rotating fan, by modelling the external aerodynamics of the plane as well as the internal aerodynamics in the secondary flow of the engine, located under the wing. These calculations take into account most of the elements of a civil transport aircraft and allow to finely model the interactions between the engine and the airframe. The analysis allows for an evaluation of both internal and external flow features, including the installation effects, and improves the prediction of the aerodynamic performance of civil aircraft equipped with engines with very high bypass ratios.

description: The enhancement of Ariane 6 Launcher System capabilities to serve missions in the field of earth orbit space logistics, Earth-Moon transfer logistics and lunar exploration or beyond is intended to manifest Europe\'s flexible and independent access to space. The ESA Future Launchers Preparatory Programme (FLPP) fostered and spotted the interest for a storable green bi-propellant extra stage placed on top of the Ariane 6 cryogenic upper stage. The carried out preparatory system, architecture technology study is an opportunity to implement innovative technologies that could servethe low production cost, the low empty mass objectives and increase the flexibility or service capabilities regarding mission, vehicle and propulsion system [l]. This paper describes in general the Green Propulsion System Options for an additional Ariane 6 Stage as well as in particular the Propulsion System for the FLPP Kick Stage called LUNA NOV A The LUNA NOV A Kick Stage is envisaged as the additional, optional stage for the Ariane 6 Evolution launcher system to improve its performance and flexibility. It shall perform to-orbit missions in Earth and Lunar orbits, as well as in-orbit services such as Active Debris Removal, Tugging and Communications Relay. As a starting reference the LUNA LOV A propulsion system definition, the focus was placed upon green propellants, along with a 5 KN BERTA green storable engine, a demonstrator for which was similarly envisaged as part ofESA FLPP [2].

description: During the aircraft conceptual design phase, overall on-board systems design is performed to estimate relevant systems design parameters such as mass, power consumption, and redundancies. In this paper, overall systems design is conducted for a hydrogen-powered regional concept aircraft with ten fuel cellpowered propulsion units. As a first step, the results of the applied in-house overall on-board systems design framework GeneSys are verified with available ATR 72 data. Next, an electrified state-of-the-art systems architecture is defined to enable integration into the hydrogen aircraft. Moreover, concept studies for electric power supply are conducted, including the implementation of high voltage direct current and emergency power supply strategies. The results show an increase of the on-board and propulsion system mass for the hydrogen aircraft by about 61 % compared to a similar kerosene-powered aircraft. However, despite of a heavier systems architecture, in-flight carbon oxide emissions are eliminated.

description: The flow features and performance parameters of a swirl-injected hybrid rocket burning H2 02 and HDPE are numerically investigated by means of axisymmetric Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes simulations. Several firing tests of a 300 N hybrid rocket are rebuilt, with satisfactory results for both the average regression rate and the chamber pressure, confirming how the adopted numerical approach can be successfully employed in the design of hybrid rockets. The dynamics of the swirling flow are studied, analyzing the strong decay of the swirling motion along the engine, and the effect of swirl intensity on the fuel regression rate and the propellant mixing process.
60Fe-60Ni chronology of core formation in Mars

description: The timescales of accretion, core formation, and magmatic differentiation in planetary bodies can be constrained using extinct radionuclide systems. Experiments have shown that Ni becomes more siderophile with decreasing pressure, which is reflected in the progressively higher Fe/Ni ratios in the mantles of Earth, Mars and Vesta. Mars formed rapidly and its mantle has a high Fe/Ni ratio, so the 60Fe-60Ni decay system (t1/2=2.62 Myr) is well suited to establish the timescale of core formation in this object. We report new measurements of 60Ni/58Ni ratios in bulk SNC/martian (Shergotty-Nakhla-Chassigny) meteorites and chondrites. The difference in ε60Ni values between SNC meteorites and the building blocks of Mars assumed to be chondritic (55 % ordinary chondrites +45% enstatite chondrites) is +0.028+/-0.023 (95% confidence interval). Using a model of growth of planetary embryo, this translates into a time for Mars to have reached ~44 % of its present size of 1.9(-0.8)(+1.7) Myr with a strict lower limit of 1.2 Myr after solar system formation, which agrees with a previous estimate based on 182Hf-182W systematics. The presence of Mars when planetesimals were still being formed may have influenced the formation of chondrules through bow shocks or by inducing collisions between dynamically excited planetesimals. Constraints on the growth of large planetary bodies are scarce and this is a major development in our understanding of the chronology of Mars.

description: By molecular dynamics simulations and free energy calculations based on Monte Carlo method, the detailed balance between Pt cluster isomers was investigated. For clusters of n<=50, stationary equilibrium is achieved in 100 ns in the canonical ensemble, while longer time is needed for n>50. Then, a statistical mechanical model was built to evaluate unimolecular isomerization rate and simplify the prediction of isomer formation probability. This model is simpler than transition state theory and can be easily applied on ab initio calculations to predict the lifetime of nanostructures.

description: High-resolution satellite rainfall products (SRPs) provide forcing inputs for hydrologic applications. Complex mountainous terrains have a significant effect on the occurrence and intensity of rainfall. This study focuses on the assessment of errors and rainfall detection capability of SRPs over a complex terrain with an elevation ranging from −95 to 3091 m based on a high-density rain gauge network over the Taihang Mountains of North China. The performance of four high-resolution SRPs (rain gauge bias-corrected Climate Prediction Center morphing technique (CMORPH CRT), Integrated Multi-satellite Retrievals for Global Precipitation Measurement (IMERG), Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) 3B42V7; and Precipitation Estimation from Remotely Sensed Information using Artificial Neural Network-Cloud Classification System (PERSIANN-CCS)) was validated using 104 rain gauge stations from 1 January 2016 to 31 December 2017, and the results show that the annual rainfall varied from 375 mm to 1400 mm on average in 2016 and 2017. At the monthly scale, all SRPs except PERSIANN-CCS performed well. The spatial pattern of the annual rainfall variation, which was highest in the southeast and lowest in the northwest, was adequately captured by IMERG and 3B42 but not CMORPH CRT and PERSIANN-CCS. As indicated by the statistical metrics, all SRPs except PERSIANN-CCS exhibited better performance in the regions in the downward direction of the East-Asian Monsoon. In terms of rainfall detection, all SRPs exhibited moderate rainfall detection capability while IMERG exhibited the lowest false alarm ratio (FAR) equal to 0.41. Compared with 3B42, a significant improvement was found in IMERG, which presented increased correlation coefficient (r) and decreased FAR values over the study areas, and the improvement rate was 75% and 95%, respectively. All SRPs underestimated the no/light rainfall (0–1 mm day−1) events. IMERG and PERSIANN-CCS exhibited poor performance with significant underestimation of the 1–2 mm day−1 rainfall class and overestimation of the 2–5 mm day−1 rainfall class. Our results not only demonstrate the superiority of different products at different elevations but also provide suggestions for further improvement of the SRPs, especially for complex terrains.

description: Li-ion rechargeable batteries have enabled the wireless revolution transforming global communication. Future challenges, however, demands distributed energy supply at a level that is not feasible with the current energy-storage technology. New materials, capable of providing higher energy density are needed. Here we report a new class of lithium-ion batteries based on a graphene ink anode and a lithium iron phosphate cathode. By carefully balancing the cell composition and suppressing the initial irreversible capacity of the anode, we demonstrate an optimal battery performance in terms of specific capacity, i.e. 165 mAhg-1, estimated energy density of about 190 Whkg-1 and life, with a stable operation for over 80 charge-discharge cycles. We link these unique properties to the graphene nanoflake anode displaying crystalline order and high uptake of lithium at the edges, as well as to its structural and morphological optimization in relation to the overall battery composition. Our approach, compatible with any printing technologies, is cheap and scalable and opens up new opportunities for the development of high-capacity Li-ion batteries.

description: Neutron inelastic scattering has been used to probe the spin dynamics of the quantum (S=1/2) ferromagnet on the pyrochlore lattice Lu2V2O7. Well-defined spin waves are observed at all energies and wavevectors, allowing us to determine the parameters of the Hamiltonian of the system. The data are found to be in excellent overall agreement with a minimal model that includes a nearest- neighbour Heisenberg exchange J = 8:22(2) meV and a Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) D =1:5(1) meV. The large DMI term revealed by our study is broadly consistent with the model developed by Onose et al. to explain the magnon Hall effect they observed in Lu2V2O7 [1], although our ratio of D=J = 0:18(1) is roughly half of their value and three times larger than calculated by ab initio methods [2].

description: The Land Cover Classification System (LCCS) is a fundamental element and representative feature for any Land Cover Data Set (LCDS). Although various LCCSs have been proposed during the past few decades, discrepancies of LCCSs have widely existed in various LCDSs, which have caused negative impacts on comprehensive comparison and integrated utilization of multiple LCDSs. This study attempted to summarize the independent diagnostic criteria hidden in the existing LCCSs based on the induction method, and to synchronously discover the roles of data sources and classification methods in designing LCCSs. A total of 13 existing regional- or global-scale LCDSs were chosen. The analysis results show that phenology, coverage rate, vertical structure, and leaf type were the most frequently adopted criteria in the LCCSs of existing LCDSs. The decision of whether to adopt a diagnostic criterion in the LCCS of LCDS depended on the availability, effectiveness, and quality of the relevant data sources and classification methods. Currently, optical remote sensing images are still the prominent data source for regional- or global-scale LCDSs, and the potential of each diagnostic criterion could not be fully played. Multi-source and heterogeneous spatial data, ARD (Analysis Ready Data), and a fusion of optical, LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging), radar, and other kinds of images have provided practical solutions. A lack of tools with high computing and storage capacities has been an alternative challenge. With the increasing advancement of new technologies, such as big earth data, crowdsourcing, deep learning, and cloud computing, more potential diagnostic criteria may be adopted for designing LCCS, and the richness and flexibility of the LCCS in the planned LCDS will gradually improve. This work not only offers beneficial references and revelations for the design of a new LCCS, but also provides insights for land cover mapping in large regions and the rational utilization of LCDSs.

description: Pastoral systems based on grazing itineraries are very common along the Mediterranean region and provide an opportunity to manage the fuel load and reduce fire risk in the ecosystem. Daily and seasonal movements of flocks bring on different grazing pressure (GP) (sheep ha−1) over the landscape. This study presents an approach to model sheep GP under a Mediterranean pastoral system in the Northeast of Portugal. The GP in a given location depends on the distance from the stable to the parish border, the distance to the stable, the heads of livestock and their preference for land use and cover (LUC). The geoprocessing we applied in this study integrated several spatial databases: the latest official Portuguese vector mapping of land use and cover (COS2015) and administrative boundaries (CAOP2018), the livestock stables location, and Sentinel-2 Multispectral Images. During the geoprocessing, the stocking density (SD) (sheep ha−1) were calculated and spatially interpolated. Homogeneous LUC units (permanent crops; annual crops; forest; shrubland; grassland; water bodies) were obtained by Random Forest supervised classification algorithm (kappa = 89.3%; global accuracy = 91.2%). Boolean overlapping of the LUC classes obtained by the supervised classifier with the mask created from COS2015 provides the potentially grazed LUC classes. Integrating LUC preferences with SD allows calculating and mapping the GP. The most common GP class is 0–0.25 sheep ha−1. Seeing the GP per LUC class, a value of 1.84 sheep ha−1 was found in permanent crops, 1.73 in annual crops, and 1.25 in grassland, 0.88 in grazed forests and 0.84 in shrublands. The GP modelling and mapping could assist in the implementation of herding programmes aimed at reducing fire hazards at a parish or at a regional scale.

description: This work concerns the study of the properties of convective cores in main-sequence models of solar-like pulsators and what information they may hold about stellar ages. We verified that the maximum absolute frequency derivative of particular combinations of frequencies, which we name "the slopes", provides information on the relative size of the discontinuity in the sound-speed profile at the border of the convectively mixed region. Since the latter is related to the evolutionary state of stars, we show that for models with masses above $1.3\,\rm M_\odot$, it may be possible to estimate the fraction of stellar main-sequence evolution from the slopes. Moreover, for models with masses below $1.2\,\rm M_\odot$ we verified that it may be possible to use the slopes to discriminate against models with small amounts of core overshoot.

description: We have revisited the series of observations recently used to infer a temporal variation of the interstellar helium flow over the last forty years. Concerning the recent IBEX-Lo direct detection of Helium neutrals, there are two types of precise and unambiguous measurements which do not rely on the exact response of the instrument: the count rate maxima as a function of the spin angle, which determines the ecliptic latitude of the flow, and the count rate maxima as a function of IBEX longitude, which determines a tight relationship between the ecliptic longitude of the flow and its velocity far from the Sun. These measurements provide parameters (and couples of parameters in the second case) remarkably similar to the canonical, old values. In contrast, the preferential choice of a lower velocity and higher longitude reported before from IBEX data is based only on the count rate variation (at each spin phase maximum) as a function of the satellite longitude, when drifting across the region of high fluxes. We have examined the consequences of dead time counting effects, and conclude that their inclusion at a realistic level is sufficient to reconcile the data with the old parameters, calling for further investigations. We discuss the analyses of the STEREO pickup ion (PUI) data and argue that the statistical method that has been preferred to infer the neutral flow longitude (instead of the more direct method based on the PUI maximum flux directions), is not appropriate. Moreover, transport effects may have been significant at the very weak solar activity level of 2007-2009, in which case the longitudes of the PUI maxima are only upper limits on the flow longitude. Finally, we found that the use of some flow longitude determinations based on UV glow data are not adequate. At variance with recent conclusions we find no evidence for a temporal variability of the interstellar helium flow.

description: This document is a letter initiating the Section 106 process with the California State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) regarding the Removal and Reuse of Aboveground Liquid Oxygen Tank Stored at SLC-10 project. The letter explains that the tank was not originally a part of SLC-10 and therefore does not contribute to the national register eligibility of the National Historic Landmark (NHL). Therefore, the letter seeks SHPO concurrence for that determination that the removal of the tank will not affect the status of the NHL.

description: Sustainable space propulsion has gained increasing interest as more payloads are launched. Growing numbers of objects in the orbit has led to increased collision risk and space debris, endangering satellites and future missions. Compact propulsion systems are needed to maintain space cleanliness. They enable manoeuvrability and safe de-orbiting. Ongoing research and innovation are crucial to meet the growing demand for effective, efficient, and enviromuentally friendly propulsion systems. These developments aim to ensure sustainability and safety in space operations. This paper presents an overview of the research activities on sustainable space propulsion systems at the Technical University Darmstadt, including green propellants and miniaturized thrusters for CubeSats and micro-satellites.

description: We present a detailed study of the circumstellar gas distribution and kinematics of the semi-regular variable star RS Cnc on spatial scales ranging from ~1" (~150 AU) to ~6' (~0.25 pc). New modeling of CO1-0 and CO2-1 imaging observations leads to a revised characterization of RS Cnc's previously identified axisymmetric molecular outflow. Rather than a simple disk-outflow picture, we find that a gradient in velocity as a function of latitude is needed to fit the spatially resolved spectra, and in our preferred model, the density and the velocity vary smoothly from the equatorial plane to the polar axis. In terms of density, the source appears quasi-spherical, whereas in terms of velocity the source is axi-symmetric with a low expansion velocity in the equatorial plane and faster outflows in the polar directions. The flux of matter is also larger in the polar directions than in the equatorial plane. An implication of our model is that the stellar wind is still accelerated at radii larger than a few hundred AU, well beyond the radius where the terminal velocity is thought to be reached in an asymptotic giant branch star. The HI data show the previously detected head-tail morphology, but also supply additional detail about the atomic gas distribution and kinematics. We confirm that the `head' seen in HI is elongated in a direction consistent with the polar axis of the molecular outflow, suggesting that we are tracing an extension of the molecular outflow well beyond the molecular dissociation radius (up to ~0.05 pc). The 6'-long HI `tail' is oriented at a PA of 305°, consistent with the space motion of the star. We measure a total mass of atomic hydrogen ~0.0055 solar mass and estimate a lower limit to the timescale for the formation of the tail to be ~6.4x10^4 years. (abridged)

The Preon Sector of the SLq(2) Model and the Binding Problem

description: There are suggestive experimental indications that the leptons, neutrinos, and quarks are composite and that their structure is described by the quantum group SLq(2). Since the hypothetical preons must be very heavy relative to the masses of the leptons, neutrinos, and quarks, there must be a very strong binding field to permit these composite particles to form. Unfortunately there are no experiments direct enough to establish the order of magnitude needed to make the SLq(2) Lagrangian dynamics quantitative. It is possible, however, to parametrize the preon masses and interactions that would be necessary to stabilize the three particle composite representing the leptons, neutrinos, and quarks. In this note we examine possible parametrizations of the masses and the interactions of these hypothetical structures. We also note an alternative view of SLq(2) preons.

description: The Helix Nebula (NGC 7293) is the closest planetary nebulae. Therefore, it is an ideal template for photochemical studies at small spatial scales in planetary nebulae. We aim to study the spatial distribution of the atomic and the molecular gas, and the structure of the photodissociation region along the western rims of the Helix Nebula as seen in the submillimeter range with Herschel. We use 5 SPIRE FTS pointing observations to make atomic and molecular spectral maps. We analyze the molecular gas by modeling the CO rotational lines using a non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (non-LTE) radiative transfer model. For the first time, we have detected extended OH+ emission in a planetary nebula. The spectra towards the Helix Nebula also show CO emission lines (from J= 4 to 8), [NII] at 1461 GHz from ionized gas, and [CI] (2-1), which together with the OH+ lines, trace extended CO photodissociation regions along the rims. The estimated OH+ column density is (1-10)x1e12 cm-2. The CH+ (1-0) line was not detected at the sensitivity of our observations. Non-LTE models of the CO excitation were used to constrain the average gas density (n(H2)=(1-5)x1e5 cm-3) and the gas temperature (Tk= 20-40 K). The SPIRE spectral-maps suggest that CO arises from dense and shielded clumps in the western rims of the Helix Nebula whereas OH+ and [CI] lines trace the diffuse gas and the UV and X-ray illuminated clumps surface where molecules reform after CO photodissociation. [NII] traces a more diffuse ionized gas component in the interclump medium.

Quantum strain sensor with a topological insulator HgTe quantum dot

description: We present a theory of electronic properties of HgTe quantum dot and propose a strain sensor based on a strain-driven transition from a HgTe quantum dot with inverted bandstructure and robust topologically protected quantum edge states to a normal state without edge states in the energy gap. The presence or absence of edge states leads to large on/off ratio of conductivity across the quantum dot, tunable by adjusting the number of conduction channels in the source-drain voltage window. The electronic properties of a HgTe quantum dot as a function of size and applied strain are described using eight-band kp Luttinger and Bir-Pikus Hamiltonians, with surface states identified with chirality of Luttinger spinors and obtained through extensive numerical diagonalization of the Hamiltonian.

description: Given any oracle, A, we construct a basic sequence Q, computable in the jump of A, such that no A-computable real is Q-distribution-normal. A corollary to this is that there is a Delta^0_{n+1} basic sequence with respect to which no Delta^0_n real is distribution-normal. As a special case, there is a limit computable sequence relative to which no computable real is distribution-normal.

Casimir Effect under Quasi-Periodic Boundary Condition Inspired by Nanotubes

description: When one studies the Casimir effect, the periodic (anti-periodic) boundary condition is usually taken to mimic a periodic (anti-periodic) structure for a scalar field living in a flat space with a non-Euclidean topology. However, there could be an arbitrary phase difference between the value of the scalar field on one endpoint of the unit structure and that on the other endpoint, such as the structure of nanotubes. Then, in this paper, a periodic condition on the ends of the system with an additional phase factor, which is called the ``quasi-periodic" condition, is imposed to investigate the corresponding Casimir effect. And an attractive or repulsive Casimir force is found, whose properties depend on the phase angle value. Especially, the Casimir effect disappears when the phase angle takes a particular value. High dimensional space-time case is also investigated.

description: Recent developments in hydraulic fracturing (fracking) have enabled the recovery of large quantities of natural gas and oil from old, low permeability shales. These developments include a change from low-volume, high-viscosity fluid injection to high-volume, low-viscosity injection. The injected fluid introduces distributed damage that provides fracture permeability for the extraction of the gas and oil. In order to model this process, we utilize a loopless non-trapping invasion percolation previously introduced to model optimal polymers in a strongly disordered medium, and for determining minimum energy spanning trees on a lattice. We performed numerical simulations on a 2D square lattice and find significant differences from other percolation models. Additionally, we find that the growing fracture network satisfies both Horton-Strahler and Tokunaga network statistics. As with other invasion percolation models, our model displays burst dynamics, in which the cluster extends rapidly into a connected region. We introduce an alternative definition of bursts to be a consecutive series of opened bonds whose strengths are all below a specified value. Using this definition of bursts, we find good agreement with a power-law frequency-area distribution. These results are generally consistent with the observed distribution of microseismicity observed during a high-volume frack.
