(author), Visser, P.N.A.M. (author), van den IJssel, J.A.A. (author)Daedalus MASE (Mission Assessment through Simulation Exercise) is an open-source package of scientific analysis tools aimed at research in the Lower Thermosphere-Ionosphere (LTI). It was created with the purpose to assess the performance and demonstrate closure of the mission objectives of Daedalus, a mission concept targeting to perform in...journal article 2023

Gas-surface interactions modelling influence on satellite aerodynamics and thermosphere mass densityMarch, G. (author), van den IJssel, J.A.A. (author), Siemes, C. (author), Visser, P.N.A.M. (author), Doornbos, Eelco N. (author), Pilinski, Marcin (author)The satellite acceleration data from the CHAMP, GRACE, GOCE, and Swarm missions provide detailed information on the thermosphere density over the last two decades. Recent work on reducing errors in modelling the spacecraft geometry has greatly reduced scale differences between the thermosphere data sets from these missions. However, residual...journal article 2021

(author), Visser, P.N.A.M. (author)<p>The lower-Thermosphere-ionosphere (LTI) system consists of the upper atmosphere and the lower part of the ionosphere and as such comprises a complex system coupled to both the atmosphere below and space above. The atmospheric part of the LTI is dominated by laws of continuum fluid dynamics and chemistry, while the ionosphere is a plasma...journal article 2021
