Hysteresis dampers are commonly used in Passive magnetic Attitude Control System (PACS). In PACS these rods produce a damping torque and reduce the satellite angular momentum and angular velocity. In this paper, a spin satellite was investigated which utilizes a passive magnetic damper consisting of magnetic hysteresis rods aligned with principal axis or spin axis of satellite and de-tumbling o...

Aims. The signature of free core nutation (FCN) is found in the motion of the celestial intermediate pole in the celestial reference frame and in the resonance behaviour of the frequency-dependent Earth tidal displacement in its diurnal band. We focus on estimation of the FCN parameters, i.e. the period and amplitude. Methods. We run several global adjustments of 27 years of very long baseline ...

In a recent publication we presented a method to obtain highly resolved NMR spectra in the presence of an inhomogeneous B(0) field with the help of a matched RF gradient. If RF gradient pulses are combined with "ideal" 90 degrees pulses to form inhomogeneous z rotation pulses, the line broadening caused by the B(0) gradient can be refocused, while the full chemical shift information is maintain...
