Motivations and Preliminary Design for Mid-Air Deployment of a Science Rotorcraft on Mars

Kavli Affiliate: Morteza Gharib | First 5 Authors: Jeff Delaune, Jacob Izraelevitz, Larry A. Young, William Rapin, Evgeniy Sklyanskiy | Summary: Mid-Air Deployment (MAD) of a rotorcraft during Entry, Descent and Landing (EDL) on Mars eliminates the need to carry a propulsion or airbag landing system. This reduces the total mass inside the aeroshell by […]

Two Candidate High-Redshift X-ray Jets Without Coincident Radio Jets

Kavli Affiliate: Herman Marshall | First 5 Authors: Daniel Schwartz, Aneta Siemiginowska, Brad Snios, Diana Worrall, Mark Birkinshaw | Summary: We report the detection of extended X-ray emission from two high-redshift radio quasars. These quasars, J1405+0415 at $z$=3.208 and J1610+1811 at $z$=3.118, were observed in a Chandra snapshot survey selected from a complete sample of […]
