Sonar behaviour in non-terrestrial ocean exploration
A goal for a future Europan payload is to determine the extent of the postulated sea, aspects of acoustic remote sensing are discussed with a view to operating a sonar in such an subsurface ocean

Martian Dust Devil Detection with the Beagle 2 Wind Sensor
Beagle 2 is a Mars lander expected to land on December 26th 2003. The Beagle 2 wind sensor utilizes an ultrasonic technique, which is unique to planetary landers, and with other sensors will identify, and characterise dust devils

A miniature UV-VIS spectrometer for the surface of Mars
A miniature spectrometer is in the process of development for a future Mars mission, to measure the UV-VIS spectrum encountered at the martian surface. With an intended mass of ~100 g, the spectrometer is planned as part of the ESA ExoMars mission

Surface Profiling of Natural Dust Devils
We present results from the first high-resolution near-surface profiles conducted on dust devil wind fields. These results are integrated with extensive geologic mapping to understand the factors that influence vortex generation and erosive efficacy

Constraints on the Huygens landing site topography from the Surface Science Package Acoustic Properties Instrument
We present analysis of the results from the Huygens acoustic sounder instrument. The sounder sees a relatively smooth terrain, with specular reflectance characteristics
VLA Survey of Dense Gas in Extended Green Objects: Prevalence of 25 GHz Methanol Masers
We present resolution Very Large Array (VLA) observations of four
CHOH - 25~GHz transitions (=3, 5, 8, 10) along with 1.3~cm
continuum toward 20 regions of active massive star formation containing
Extended Green Objects (EGOs), 14 of which we have previously studied with the
VLA in the Class~I 44~GHz and Class~II 6.7~GHz maser lines (Cyganowski et al.
2009). Sixteen regions are detected in at least one 25~GHz line (=5), with
13 of 16 exhibiting maser emission. In total, we report 34 new sites of
CHOH maser emission and ten new sites of thermal CHOH emission,
significantly increasing the number of 25~GHz Class I CHOH masers observed
at high angular resolution. We identify probable or likely maser counterparts
at 44~GHz for all 15 of the 25~GHz masers for which we have complementary data,
providing further evidence that these masers trace similar physical conditions
despite uncorrelated flux densities. The sites of thermal and maser emission of
CHOH are both predominantly associated with the 4.5 m emission from
the EGO, and the presence of thermal CHOH emission is accompanied by 1.3~cm
continuum emission in 9 out of 10 cases. Of the 19 regions that exhibit 1.3~cm
continuum emission, it is associated with the EGO in 16 cases (out of a total
of 20 sites), 13 of which are new detections at 1.3~cm. Twelve of the 1.3~cm
continuum sources are associated with 6.7~GHz maser emission and likely trace
