Description
Project Cassini is concerned with a potential collaborative mission to Saturn and Titan. The project has been the subject of a joint ESA/NASA Technical Assessment Study from April 1984 to July 1985. The spacecraft consists of a Saturn Orbiter and a Titan entry Probe. Science objectives with respect to Titan include a determination of the abundances of atmospheric constituents and isotope ratios, a study of the distribution of trace gases, cloud physics, and a determination of the state of the surface. Other science objectives are related to Saturn, the rings, icy satellites, the magnetosphere of Saturn, and asteroids. Attention is given to mission design, the spacecraft, and future prospects.

    Generating galaxy clusters mass density maps from mock multiview images via deep learning
    Galaxy clusters are composed of dark matter, gas and stars. Their dark matter component, which amounts to around 80% of the total mass, cannot be directly observed but traced by the distribution of diffused gas and galaxy members. In this work, we aim to infer the cluster's projected total mass distribution from mock observational data, i.e. stars

    A machine learning method to infer clusters of galaxies mass radial profiles from mock Sunyaev-Zel'dovich maps with The Three Hundred clusters
    Our study introduces a new machine learning algorithm for estimating 3D cumulative radial profiles of total and gas mass in galaxy clusters from thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect maps. We generate mock images from 2522 simulated clusters, employing an autoencoder and random forest in our approach. Notably, our model makes no prior assumptions

    The European Low Frequency Survey. Observing the radio sky to understand the beginning of the Universe
    In this paper we present the European Low Frequency Survey (ELFS), a project that will enable the detection of primordial B-mode polarization by measuring the Galactic and extra-Galactic foregrounds in the 5- 120 GHz frequency window. Indeed, the main difficulty in measuring the Bmode polarization comes not just from its sheer faintness, but from
