    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resonant_trans-Neptunian...

    In astronomy, a resonant trans-Neptunian object is a trans-Neptunian object (TNO) in mean-motion orbital resonance with Neptune.The orbital periods of the resonant objects are in a simple integer relations with the period of Neptune, e.g. 1:2, 2:3, etc. Resonant TNOs can be either part of the main Kuiper belt population, or the more distant scattered disc population.

  3. Nuclear Overhauser effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_Overhauser_effect

    A phenomenological definition of the NOE in nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) is the change in the integrated intensity (positive or negative) of one NMR resonance that occurs when another is saturated by irradiation with an RF field. The change in resonance intensity of a nucleus is a consequence of the nucleus being close in space ...

  4. Space Research Centre of Polish Academy of Sciences

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Research_Centre_of...

    SRC PAS is the only institute in Poland whose activity is fully dedicated to the research of terrestrial space, the Solar System and the Earth using space technology and satellite techniques. The SRC also acted as Poland 's national space agency until the Polish Space Agency (POLSA) was fully established in 2014.

  5. Langley Research Center - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Langley_Research_Center

    The Langley Research Center (LaRC or NASA Langley), located in Hampton, Virginia, near the Chesapeake Bay front of Langley Air Force Base, is the oldest of NASA's field centers. [1] LaRC has focused primarily on aeronautical research but has also tested space hardware such as the Apollo Lunar Module. In addition, many of the earliest high ...

  6. Two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-dimensional_nuclear...

    The spectra are read with the pre-selected nuclei giving a large, negative signal while neighboring nuclei are identified by weaker, positive signals. This only reveals which peaks have measurable NOEs to the resonance of interest but takes much less time than the full 2D experiment.

  7. Scientific research on the International Space Station

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_research_on_the...

    The International Space Station is a platform for scientific research that requires one or more of the unusual conditions present in low Earth orbit (for example microgravity, -radiation and extreme temperatures). The primary fields of research include human research, space medicine, life sciences, physical sciences, astronomy and meteorology.

Earth science , materials science , biology , medicine , and physics all apply to the space research environment.

  9. Advanced Stirling radioisotope generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Stirling...

    The higher conversion efficiency of the Stirling cycle compared with that of radioisotope thermoelectric generators (RTGs) used in previous missions (Viking, Pioneer, Voyager, Galileo, Ulysses, Cassini, New Horizons, Mars Science Laboratory, and Mars 2020) would have offered an advantage of a fourfold reduction in PuO 2 fuel, at half the mass of an RTG.
