Optomechanical design for CubeSat Laser Infrared CrosslinKs
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)The CubeSat Laser Infrared CrosslinK (CLICK) mission is a technology demonstrator for a 1.5U intersatellite link laser communications terminal deployed on a pair of 3U CubeSats in Low Earth Orbit (LEO). The narrow transmission ... -
Orbital decay of hot Jupiters : coefficients of nonlinear tidal coupling as a function of the stellar host type
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)Hot Jupiters raise strong tides in their host stars due to their large masses (around a Jupiter mass) and tight orbits (orbital periods P </~ 3 days). These tides remove orbital energy and angular momentum, causing the ... -
Organic multilayer photoconductor utilizing a spacer layer
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Chemosensors hold many vital applications in today's world, particularly as detectors for explosives. There is still vast room for improvement as other technologies-particularly those of explosives-continue to evolve and ... -

An overview of the volcano-tectonic hazards of Portland, Oregon, and an assessment of emergency preparedness
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)Portland, Oregon, lies within an active tectonic margin, which puts the city at risk to hazards from earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. The young Juan de Fuca microplate is subducting under North America, introducing not ... -
Oxygen isotope systematics of nitrification
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)During nitrification there is an exchange of oxygen atoms between water and nitrite, causing the [delta]¹⁸O of nitrate produced by nitrification to be closer to the [delta]¹⁸O of water than expected. A series of lab and ... -
Oxygen precipitate studies in silicon for gettering in solar cell applications
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)Oxygen precipitates in silicon can be used (in a process called internal gettering) as sites of heterogeneous nucleation of precipitates of iron and other transition metal that are harmful to solar cell device operation. ... -
Oxygen-oxygen bonds : catalytic redox pathways in energy storage
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Introduction: The present understanding of energy - its many forms, and its governing role in the time evolution of physical systems - underlies many of the most fundamental and unifying principles furnished by scientific ... -
Ozone chemistry during global glaciations : a possible climate feedback
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)A theory for changes in ozone chemistry during late Proterozoic global glaciations is developed. The possible significance of temperature, humidity, nitrogen oxides, reactive chlorine, lightning frequency, surface deposition ...
