SIGN UP ⋅   WEBSITE   The Launchpad SpaceX launches 4th flight test of Starship megarocket (SpaceX) The fourth test flight of the biggest and most powerful rocket ever built is in the books, and what a dramatic and nail-biting trip for SpaceX it was. SpaceX launched its Starship megarocket for the fourth time ever today (June 6) at 8:50 a.m. EDT (1250 GMT), sending the 400-foot-tall (122 meters) vehicle aloft from its Starbase site near Boca Chica Beach in South Texas atop a thundering pillar of fire. Full Story: Space (6/6)  NASA astronaut put Starliner to the test (exclusive) (NASA) Shortly after shepherding the first Boeing Starliner to a space port, NASA astronaut Bob Hines got a special assignment. Hines was one of the astronauts working in the International Space Station for the historic first berthing of an uncrewed Boeing Starliner spacecraft on May 22, 2022. Hines, who flew on SpaceX Crew-4, returned to Earth from half a year in space that October, to learn that NASA wanted him to help see Starliner through its first crewed mission.

Souders via Getty Images) The midnight sun is a natural summertime phenomenon in which the sun never sets below the horizon, not even at midnight. While this may sound like an otherworldly scenario, for those living in the polar regions, it's just another summer's day, albeit one that never ends.

Starliner is expected to dock with the orbiting lab today around 12:15 p.m. EDT (1615 GMT) on its historic astronaut debut, which is known as Crew Flight Test (CFT). You can watch the rendezvous live here at Space.com, courtesy of NASA, beginning at 9:30 a.m. EDT (1330 GMT).

The effort comes under an agreement between the University of Hawaii and the Maunakea Stewardship and Oversight Authority, designed to smooth tensions over the construction of a new telescope on the mountain: The Thirty Meter Telescope.

That spacecraft is Boeing's Starliner, which is carrying NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams toward the International Space Station (ISS) after launching this morning atop a United Launch Alliance (ULA) Atlas V rocket. "Congratulations on a successful launch!" SpaceX founder and CEO Elon Musk said via X.

Despite getting relentlessly bombarded with radiation from its red giant parent star, the world has, against all odds, hung on to its atmosphere. It is also smaller, older and hotter than scientists thought possible for such a planet.

Уважаемые коллеги!

На заседании Ученого совета ИТФ в пятницу 7 июня в 11:30 будут заслушаны
2 доклада:

1) Максим Шустин
*Topological phases induced by charge fluctuations in Majorana wires*

The influence of many-body interactions on topological phases is one of
the problems that still remains urgent in modern condensed-matter
theory. In this study we address this issue within perturbative theory
framework by considering topological phase transitions related to charge
correlations in the extended Kitaev chain model that belongs to the BDI
symmetry class. Obtained corrections to a zero-frequency quasiparticle
Green's function allow to separate the mean-field and fluctuation
contributions to a total winding number. As a result, the phase
transitions caused solely by the latter are unveiled. We thoroughly
analyze the mechanism of such transitions in terms of
fluctuation-induced nodal points and spectrum renormalization.
Additionally, features of other quasiparticle properties such as
effective mass and damping are discussed in the context of topological
phase transitions.
Phys. Rev. B 109, 075435 (2024).

2) А.О. Короткевич
*Прямой каскад турбулентности капиллярных волн: численное моделирование*
(короткий доклад)

Приводятся результаты большого массива экспериментов по моделированию
турбулентности капиллярных волн. Получен динамический диапазон прямого
каскада более одной декады в пространстве волновых векторов, что
соответствует примерно двум декадам по частоте. Рассматривается влияние
размера области на наблюдаемые спектры.
