SATELLITE GEODESY Compiled by Mariusz Figurski, Grzegorz Nykiel, Paweł Wielgosz, and Anna Krypiak-Gregorczyk Introduction This part of the Polish National Report concerns research on Satellite Geodesy performed in Poland from 2018 to 2020. The activity of the Polish institutions in the field of satellite geodesy and navigation are focused on the several main fields: • global and regional GPS and SLR measurements in the frame of International GNSS Service (IGS), International Laser Ranging Service (ILRS), International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service (IERS), European Reference Frame Permanent Network (EPN), • Polish geodetic permanent network – ASG-EUPOS, • modeling of ionosphere and troposphere, • practical utilization of satellite methods in local geodetic applications, • geodynamic study, • metrological control of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) equipment, • use of gravimetric satellite missions, • application of GNSS in overland, maritime and air navigation, • multi-GNSS application in geodetic studies.

    Wzmacniacz zintegrowany Goldenote S-1 Cena: 4799 zł Dystrybucja: Moje Audio Kontakt: Powstańców Śląskich 118, 53-333 Wrocław tel/fax: (71) 336 52 67 tel. kom.: 606 276 001, 790 425 142 e-mail: [email protected] Strona producenta: Goldenote Tekst: Krzysztof Kalinkowski Podczas poprzedniego testu (zestaw Lector – TUTAJ) wspomniałem, że wiele urządzeń testowanych przez „High Fidelity” pochodzi z Włoch. I jakoś tak się porobiło, że w moje ręce trafił kolejny włoski produkt, zintegrowany wzmacniacz Goldenote S-1. To pokazuje naprawdę, jak wiele urządzeń audio pochodzących z tego kraju jest dostępnych u nas w Polsce. Myślę, że wśród nich, każdy może znaleźć coś dla siebie, na wielu półkach cenowych i jakościowych, i wiele osób będzie z takiego wyboru zadowolonych. Szczególnie, że są to w większości produkty oferujące „bardzo wiele za stosunkowo niewiele”. Ale myślę, że o tym zdążyli się już Państwo przekonać czytając wcześniejsze testy, lub słuchając samodzielnie produktów oferowanych przez włoskich producentów. S-1 to najtańszy wzmacniacz oferowany przez firmę Akamai (tym razem pod nazwą Goldenote), prowadzoną przez Maurizio Ateriniego (na zdjęciu podczas wystawy High End 2008 w Monachium). Produkty tej firmy znam dość dobrze – przez pewien czas miałem w swoim systemie odtwarzacz Koala Tube, miałem też okazję zapoznać się odtwarzaczem plików DSS-30 (test Naczelnego TUTAJ) oraz inną elektroniką z linii Blacknote (test TUTAJ). Znam też, choć już nieco gorzej, ponieważ nie słuchałem ich w swoim systemie, źródła analogowe, kolumny i wzmacniacze z serii Demidoff. Moim zdaniem wszystkie te urządzenia potwierdzają regułę, którą przedstawiłem poprzednio, iż Muzyka jest przez nie traktowana priorytetowo. Uprzedzając nieco fakty, powiem, że również testowany wzmacniacz nie jest od niej wyjątkiem.

Bishop4, John Carter1, Csilla Orgel2 1Institut d’Astrophysique Spatiale, CNRS/Université Paris-Sud, 91405 Orsay Cedex, France 2Institute of Geological Sciences, Planetary Sciences and Remote Sensing Group, Freie Universität Berlin, Germany 3Purdue University, West Lafayette, USA. 4SETI Institute/NASA-ARC, Mountain View, CA, USA Corresponding author: François Poulet, IAS, Bâtiment 121, CNRS/Université Paris-Sud, 91405 Orsay Cedex, France; email: [email protected] Running title: Mawrth: a fascinating place for exploration 1 Abstract After the successful landing of the Mars Science Laboratory rover, both NASA and ESA initiated a selection process for potential landing sites for the Mars2020 and ExoMars missions, respectively. Two ellipses located in the Mawrth Vallis region were proposed and evaluated during a series of meetings (3 for Mars2020 mission and 5 for ExoMars). We describe here the regional context of the two proposed ellipses as well as the framework of the objectives of these two missions. Key science targets of the ellipses and their astrobiological interests are reported. This work confirms the proposed ellipses contain multiple past Martian wet environments of subaerial, subsurface and/or subaqueous character, in which to probe the past climate of Mars, build a broad picture of possible past habitable environments, evaluate their exobiological potentials and search for biosignatures in well-preserved rocks. A mission scenario covering several key investigations during the nominal mission of each rover is also presented, as well as descriptions of how the site fulfills the science requirements and expectations of in situ martian exploration.

  • Separating Fact from Fiction in the Aiolian Migration
    hesperia yy (2008) SEPARATING FACT Pages399-430 FROM FICTION IN THE AIOLIAN MIGRATION ABSTRACT Iron Age settlementsin the northeastAegean are usuallyattributed to Aioliancolonists who journeyed across the Aegean from mainland Greece. This articlereviews the literary accounts of the migration and presentsthe relevantarchaeological evidence, with a focuson newmaterial from Troy. No onearea played a dominantrole in colonizing Aiolis, nor is sucha widespread colonizationsupported by the archaeologicalrecord. But the aggressive promotionof migrationaccounts after the PersianWars provedmutually beneficialto bothsides of theAegean and justified the composition of the Delian League. Scholarlyassessments of habitation in thenortheast Aegean during the EarlyIron Age are remarkably consistent: most settlements are attributed toAiolian colonists who had journeyed across the Aegean from Thessaly, Boiotia,Akhaia, or a combinationof all three.1There is no uniformityin theancient sources that deal with the migration, although Orestes and his descendantsare named as theleaders in mostaccounts, and are credited withfounding colonies over a broadgeographic area, including Lesbos, Tenedos,the western and southerncoasts of theTroad, and theregion betweenthe bays of Adramyttion and Smyrna(Fig. 1).
