(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

(author), Ellmer, Matthias (author), Guo, Junyi (author), van den IJssel, J.A.A. (author), Iorfida, E. (author)Although the knowledge of the gravity of the Earth has improved considerably with CHAMP, GRACE, and GOCE (see appendices for a list of abbreviations) satellite missions, the geophysical community has identified the need for the continued monitoring of the time-variable component with the purpose of estimating the hydrological and...journal article 2020

Visser, T. (author), March, G. (author), Doornbos, E.N. (author), de Visser, C.C. (author), Visser, P (author)Thermospheric wind measurements obtained from linear non-gravitational accelerations of the Gravity field and steady-state Ocean Circulation Explorer (GOCE) satellite show discrepancies when compared to ground-based measurements. In this paper the cross-wind is derived from both the linear and the angular accelerations using a newly developed...journal article 2019

Visser, T. (author), March, G. (author), Doornbos, E.N. (author), de Visser, C.C. (author), Visser, P.N.A.M. (author)Recently, the horizontal and vertical cross wind at 225- to 295-km altitude were derived from linear acceleration measurements of the Gravity field and steady-state Ocean Circulation Explorer satellite. The vertical component of these wind data is compared to wind data derived from the mass spectrometers of the Atmosphere Explorer C and E and...journal article 2019

(author), Jäggi, Adrian (author), Mayer-Gürr, Torsten (author), Sebera, Josef (author), Visser, P.N.A.M. (author), Zehentner, Norbert (author)It is of great interest to numerous geophysical studies that the time series of global gravity field models derived from Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) data remains uninterrupted after the end of this mission. With this in mind, some institutes have been spending efforts to estimate gravity field models from alternative...journal article 2016
