Halo Orbit Generation Using the Center Manifold

In recent years, halo orbits around the Sun-Earth Lagrange points, L1 and L2, have become extremely opular for NASA missions due to the ideal observation environment and low launch energy.

Sample Processor for Life on Icy Worlds (SPLIce): Monolithic Manifold-Based System to Recover, Prepare, and Deliver Samples and Standards to Instrumentation Suites for Ocean World Life-Search Missions

A claim of life detection on one of the solar system’s icy ocean worlds would necessitate extraordinarily convincing evidence. Limited energy availability in the oceans of such bodies as Europa and Enceladus argues for microbes as most probable among possible life forms, but evidence of their existence in the surface layers of an icy moon or in a frozen plume ejected into space could take various forms, pointing to instrumentation suites as a preferred means to detect diverse molecular and morphological life indicators. Multiple disparate categories of positive detections could provide truly convincing evidence from samples that may be only a few micro-liters. SPLIce’s Foundation. Teams led by NASA’s Ames Research Center have developed and operated numerous small, live-biology and astrobiology science payloads in space over two decades. Since 2016, we have adapted and augmented their biological sample-handling systems to create compact, robust search-for-life fluidic processors designed to function after a decade or more in transit, in environments with very little gravity and lots of radiation: up to 100’s of kilorads.

GenASiS Mathematics: Object-oriented manifolds, operations, and solvers for large-scale physics simulations (version 2)

We report GenASiS Mathematics provides modern Fortran classes furnishing extensible object-oriented functionality for the solution of fields governed by selected partial differential equations. The initial release included extensible object-oriented implementations of simple meshes and the evolution of generic conserved currents thereon. This revision - Version 2 of Mathematics - includes significant reorganization and streamlining of these classes, higher-order reconstruction by a different method, a Poisson solver, coarsening to avoid Courant time step limitations near coordinate singularities, and the offloading of computational kernels to GPUs.
