The measurement of the polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation
is one of the current frontiers in cosmology. In particular, the detection of the primordial …

A new opportunity for astronomy, cosmology, physics, and atmospheric observations is the
possibility to fly stratospheric payloads at 30-40 km of altitude during the polar night. The …

Large stratospheric balloons are the easiest access to near space. Large long duration
balloons (LDBs) can float in the stratosphere for weeks collecting measurements (eg …

A common issue for long-duration balloon flights in the polar area is high bit rate data
transferring. Just a few hours after launch balloons are nor reachable with direct radio link …

Humankind has made stories about the origin of the Universe since prehistoric times, but it is
only in the last hundred years that such myths and images have been replaced by a well …

Un alimentatore solare può essere un oggetto sofisticato: quello che è stato realizzato
dall'LNTS (Laboratori Nuove Tecologie Strumenti, UF Laboratori, Roma1) è una tessera del …

Queste note derivano dalla mia esperienza nell'uso di pannelli solari, maturata in istallazioni
in Africa, in Antartide e sui palloni stratosferici. Si tratta di considerazioni, essenzialmente …
