... New technique measures mass of exoplanets . ... Now, scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a new technique for determining the mass of exoplanets using only their transmission spectra dips in light as a planet passes in front of its star. ... To determine the mass of an exoplanet using transmission spectroscopy, de Wit relied on the effect that a planet s mass has on its atmosphere, as transmission spectra give information on a planet s atmospheric properties. ...

... Dnepr Cluster Mission 2013 19 June 2014. ... The SC actual injection accuracy was assessed by comparison of the nominal design orbit, with the account for disturbances at separation, and the actual orbit determined on the basis of: . ... With reference to the above data, one can see that deviations of the THEOS osculation orbit parameters at the time of SC separation during Dnepr launch on October 1, 2008 did not exceed the prediction the THEOS SC was launched with high accuracy. ...
