Numerical Calculations of Charging Threshold at GEO Altitudes With Two Temperature Non-Extensive Electrons

Surface charging at geosynchronous altitudes poses significant risks to spacecraft, often linked to extreme charging events during substorms. By employing a two-temperature q-non-extensive distribution function, we developed an improved current balance equation that better predicts charging thresholds compared to Maxwellian models, considering the effects of various non-extensive plasma parameters.

Air traffic monitoring using optimized ADS-B CubeSat constellation

Our study explores how CubeSats enhance Mega Constellations in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) for air traffic control and management. We present an optimized ADS-B CubeSat constellation designed to improve global air traffic surveillance, especially over oceans. By leveraging ADS-B technology, our solution offers cost-effective, comprehensive coverage for intercontinental flights.

Investigation of VLF/LF electric field variations related to magnitude Mw≥5.5 earthquakes in the Mediterranean region for the year 2023

This study statistically analyzes lithosphere–atmosphere–ionosphere interactions for Mw5.5+ earthquakes in 2023, utilizing sub-ionospheric VLF/LF radio links. With high-resolution electric field measurements from the INFREP network, we investigate significant variations, notably in the TBB-GRZ link associated with the Turkey–Syria earthquake sequence, interpreting results via atmospheric gravity waves.

Numerical Modelling and Rugged Techniques for De-orbiting of LEO Space Debris

We present a cost-effective approach to space debris mitigation using a Hoover Capturing System (HCS). By modeling debris clusters from events like Fengyun-1C and Iridium 33, and applying a magnetic field-based capture method, we offer a robust solution for removing millimeter and centimeter debris, ultimately burning fragments upon reentry.

Design concept of cost effective LEO satellite system for Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B)

We present a design for a space-based ADS-B system comprising 20 LEO satellites to enhance global air traffic surveillance, particularly over trans-oceanic routes. The system offers improved accuracy and coverage, addressing limitations of existing radar and terrestrial ADS-B systems in monitoring congested airspace, with a feasible and cost-effective solution.

A LEO Nano-Satellite Mission for the Detection of Lightning VHF Sferics (Space and Ground Segments)

We discuss a LEO nano-satellite designed to detect lightning VHF sferics. It addresses the integration of a lightning experiment antenna, receiver, and data acquisition into a compact structure, utilizing a gravity gradient boom to enhance sensitivity. The mission features a constellation of three identical nano-satellites for local and global coverage, supported by a distributed ground segment network for real-time data tracking, analysis and dissemination.
