Since then, Rosetta has Received in revised form been studying both its nucleus and coma with instruments aboard the Orbiter. On 16 November 2015 November 12th, 2014 the Lander, Philae, was successfully delivered to the surface of the Accepted 24 November 2015 comet and operated for approximately 64 h after separation from the mother spacecraft. Since the active cold gas system aboard the Lander as well as the anchoring harpoons did Keywords: not work, Philae bounced after the first touch-down at the planned landing site “Agilkia”.At Rosetta the final landing site, “Abydos”, a modified First Scientific Sequence was performed. Due to Philae the unexpectedly low illumination conditions and a lack of anchoring the sequence had to Lander be adapted in order to minimize risk and maximize the scientific output. All ten instru- Comet Operations ments could be activated at least once, before Philae went into hibernation. -

Basic Guidelines for Tuning with the XPS Motion Controller
TECHNICAL APPLICATION NOTE Basic Guidelines for Tuning With The XPS Motion Controller 1.0 Concept of the DC Servo frictionless surface at a rest position and a perturbation is applied by pulling The XPS positions the stage by optimizing error response, accuracy, and stability the spring and if the Kp (Hooke’s) value were zero, then the mass would not by scaling measured position error by the correctors Proportional, Integral, and move to correct for the perturbation. With an appreciable Kp>0, the spring Derivative (Kp, Ki, Kd). The XPS responds to measured position error (Setpoint - responds and is put into oscillation. Encoder) is indicated in Section 14.1.2.1 of the XPS user manual: Similarly, if the DC Servo were a perfectly frictionless system, then Kp would send the system immediately into oscillation as it corrects for position. Like a spring, the value of Kp results in the speed of response to the error: like a stiffer spring, a higher Kp will cause the stage to return more quickly. 1.2 Damped Harmonic Oscillator A real stage system, however, always has some friction or an electronic dampening term. The spring mass system shows that the magnitude of the error The Kform term in the left diagram is set to zero for standard stages. The Kform (periodic overshoot) is diminished by Kd. For a DC Servo, the Kp and Kd terms are with variable gains is a tool for changing the PID parameters during the motion sufficient to cause the stage to respond to an error and to settle the oscillations. -

CZECH (Under the Direction of John Weaver) ABSTRACT This project opens space for looking at the world in a musical way where “jamming” with music through playing and listening to it helps one resist a more standardized and dualistic way of seeing the world. Instead of having a traditional dissertation, this project is organized like a record album where each chapter is a Track that contains an original song that parallels and plays off the subject matter being discussed to make a more encompassing, multidimensional, holistic, improvisational, and critical statement as the songs and riffs move along together to tell why an arts-based musical way of being can be a choice and alternative in our lives.
