Object injection in geodesic conditions: In-flight and on-ground testing issues

In absence of forces, any object moves along the straightest possible path in space–time, called geodesic. The presence of a gravity field generates a space–time distortion that reflects on a curvature of the geodesics. Outer space yields a privileged environment to achieve high levels of geodesic purity, thanks to the absence of many non-gravitational force disturbances typical of the Earth, mainly due to the atmosphere, micro-seismic activity, stray electro-magnetic fields, etc. Many experiments in the field of Fundamental Physics, General Relativity and Earth Observation are performed through space missions, in which objects are either set in geodesic conditions or their deviation from a geodesic is measured. In both cases, stray non-gravitational forces acting on them must be reduced to a negligible level.

Navigating BepiColombo during the weak-stability capture at Mercury

BepiColombo is scheduled for launch in August 2013 and to arrive after a nearly six-year long transfer at Mercury in June 2019. The trajectory has a number of challenging elements: a launch with Soyuz/Fregat into a geostationary transfer orbit, followed by a lunar flyby, long low-thrust arcs and five more planetary flybys (one at the Earth, two at Venus and two at Mercury). At arrival the low thrust arcs reduce the approach velocity so much that BepiColombo passes by the Sun–Mercury Lagrange points L₁ and L₂ and gets weakly captured in a highly eccentric orbit around Mercury in case the orbit insertion manoeuvre would fail.This paper describes the navigation strategy during the final phase. Five trajectory correction manouevres during the last 65 days requiring up to 20 m/s (3σ) are proposed. With this strategy it is possible to navigate BepiColombo safely through the weak-stability boundary of Mercury and to reach the target periherm with a precision of 11 km.     

提高大学日语专业四级考试能力的实证性研究——以写作能力为中心

由于中日两国语言都使用汉字,其特点与性质有很多共同点,故而日语学习者用日语进行写作时过多受母语语言文化的影响较为严重.写作不仅反应一个人的词汇、语法掌握的熟练程度,而且还意味着个人文学修养及思维能力的整体水平,因此写作成为学生的一大难题.本文从提高日语专业四级写作能力的实证性研究出发,深入分析日语写作的特点与性质,并在此基础上较全面地探索日语学习者在日语写作方面存在的各种问题.     

间隙约束二元翼段系统分岔与多解共存现象分析

研究了分段刚度描述的间隙约束二元翼段气动弹性系统,取俯仰角最大幅值处为类Poincaré截面,数值计算得到了系统随飞行速度变化的分岔图,发现飞行速度在Ma=0.71~0.75属于跨临界颤振区,而在Ma=0.75~0.95发生极限环震荡.同时通过构造极限环震荡的四维Poincaré映射分析了极限环震荡的稳定性,结合稳定性和运动流形理论,得到极限环震荡的吸引域一般位于极限环内部并用数值方法进行了验证.且跨临界颤振速度区域中存在多种分岔形式以及多解共存现象,例如由双周期运动直接通向混沌、多周期运动与双周期运动共存现象,振动幅值也存在跳跃现象.

Iron meteorites can support the growth of acidophilic chemolithoautotrophic microorganisms

Chemolithoautotrophy based on reduced inorganic minerals is considered a primitive energy transduction system. Evidence that a high number of meteorites crashed into the planet during the early period of Earth history led us to test the ability of iron-oxidizing bacteria to grow using iron meteorites as their source of energy. Here we report the growth of two acidophilic iron-oxidizing bacteria, Leptospirillum ferrooxidans and Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans, on a piece of the Toluca meteorite as the only source of energy. The alteration of the surface of the exposed piece of meteorite, the solubilization of its oxidized metal constituents, mainly ferric iron, and the formation of goethite precipitates all clearly indicate that iron-meteorite-based chemolithotrophic metabolism is viable.     

High precision orbits for the international GPS service for geodynamics (IGS)

The objectives of the IGS include the regular computation of precise orbits for the GPS satellites, an essential prerequisite for geodetic, geophysical and navigation applications of GPS relying on accuracies at the level of metres to centimetres. This involves the deployment of advanced GPS receivers at a considerable number of globally distributed ground points, including several ESA tracking sites; the largely automated daily retrieval and processing of large amounts of remotely generated data; and regular independent comparisons of solutions computed by the various participating analysis centres, showing for example differences of typically 15 cm in solutions for all orbits in the GPS constellation. The paper reviews the IGS activities being carried out at ESOC in the context of the overall service.
