Abstract

Large topographic rises on Venus are regions thought to be formed in response to the presence of a mantle plume or mantle upwelling, equivalent to hot spots on Earth. In this work, we study the geology and evolution of one of these large topographic rises, Imdr Regio, based on geologic mapping and analysis of geophysical data of the area. Imdr Regio presents a complex structure with two very different areas: (a) an elevated southeast area that is dominated by volcanism associated with Idunn Mons, a large volcano that has been proposed as a site of recent or even active volcanism; (b) another elevated area in the northwest area that also has a large volcano (Arasy Mons), but that is dominated by volcanism and tectonic activity associated with the formation of the Olapa Chasma rift system. These two very differentiated topographically elevated areas also exhibit differences in their geology, volcanic and tectonic style, and geophysical characteristics, which leads us to suggest that more than the classic volcano‐dominated rise classification attributed to Imdr Regio the area could rather be considered as an intermediate or hybrid volcano‐rift dominated large topographic rise. The evaluation of the different genetic scenarios and its correspondence with the observed geology in the area suggests that the complex geology of Imdr Regio could be better explained if we consider models of hot spot evolution that involve the presence of several mantle plumes or secondary upwellings derived from a mantle plume emplaced at a deeper rheological boundary. Plain Language Summary: Large topographic rises on Venus are the equivalent to hot spots like those responsible for the formation of Hawaii on the Earth. We have studied the geologic evolution of one of these large topographic rises, Imdr Regio, and this research shows that Imdr Regio is complex with two differentiated areas. The southeast is dominated by a large volcano, Idunn Mons, that has been proposed as a site of recent or even active volcanism. In the northwest there is also a large volcano Arasy Mons, but the activity is dominated by the Olapa Chasma rift system. The presence of these two areas with differences in their geology, volcanic and tectonic style, and geophysical characteristics, leads us to suggest that, although this large topographic rise was classified as dominated by the volcano, it could indeed be better classified as an intermediate or hybrid volcano‐rift dominated rise. We also evaluate the different scenarios to explain its formation and conclude that the complex geology of Imdr Regio could be better explained if we consider models of hot spot evolution that involve the presence of several mantle plumes or secondary smaller plumes derived from a mantle plume emplaced at a greater depth. Key Points: We have studied the geology of Imdr Regio, a possible active hotspot on Venus, based on geologic mapping and analysis of geophysical dataImdr Regio presents complex geology dominated by Idunn Mons and Olapa Chasma, classifying it as a hybrid volcano‐rift large topographic riseThe complex geology and the topography of Imdr Regio suggest that it could be the result of multiple or secondary plumes in the area [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The recently selected NASA VERITAS and DAVINCI missions, the ESA EnVision, the Roscosmos Venera‐D will open a new era in the exploration of Venus. One of the key targets of the future orbiting and in situ investigations of Venus is the identification of volcanically active areas on the planet. The study of the areas characterized by recent or ongoing volcano‐tectonic activity can inform us on how volcanism and tectonism are currently evolving on Venus. Following this key target, Brossier et al. (2022, https://doi.org/10.1029/2022GL099765) extend the successful approach and methodology used by previous works to Ganis Chasma in Atla Regio. Here we comment on the main results published in Brossier et al. (2022, https://doi.org/10.1029/2022GL099765) and discuss the important implications of their work for the future orbiting and in situ investigation of Venus. Their results add further lines of evidence indicating possibly recent volcanism on Venus. Key Points: The manuscript by Brossier et al.

Abstract

The Timed Up and Go (TUG) test is a common mobility measure in rehabilitation. With the instrumental TUG test (ITUG; i.e. the TUG measured by inertial measurement units, IMUs), several movement measures are newly available. However, the clinical meaning of these new measures is not totally clear. Aim of the current work is to evaluate the validity of different ITUG parameters as a measure of balance. Neurological patients (n = 122; 52 females; 89 older than 65 years) completed the TUG test with IMUs secured to their back. IMUs signals were used to split the TUG test in five phases (sit-to-stand, walk1, turn1, walk2 and turn-and-sit) and twelve movement parameters were obtained. Experienced clinicians administered the Mini-BESTest (MB) scale, a sound balance measure. The partial least square regression (PLSR) was used to explore the association between the ITUG variables and the MB measure. A PLSR model with twelve ITUG variables had satisfactory fit parameters (RMSEP: 11%; R2: 0.41, 95% CI: 0.28–0.54; regression line: 1, 95% CI: 0.78–1.22). Three ITUG variables (i.e. turn1 vertical angular velocity, turn1 duration and turn2 vertical angular velocity) were found to be the most important predictors of the MB measure. A PLSR model with the turning variables only had fit parameters comparable to that of the twelve variables model. Turning parameters from the TUG test are good predictors of the MB scale. The mean angular velocity during turning and the duration of the turning phase are thus proposed as a valid, ratio-level measures of balance in neurological patients.

Abstract

International audience; Introduction: Mounds that exhibit similarities of shape, scale, features, and spatially-associated landforms with terrestrial pingos (perennially ice-cored mounds) [e.g. 1-2] (Fig. 1) have been observed at the mid-latitudes of Utopia Planitia [3-7] and the Argyre region [8], as well as the near-equatorial latitude of Athabasca Vallis [9-10]. Pingo formation on Earth largely follows one of two pathways: a) the precursive pooling of surface or near-surface water, its freeze-thaw cycling and permafrost aggradation (hydrostatic/closed-system pingos [CSPs]); or, b) groundwater migration driven or facilitated by topography, geological faulting or artesian pressure (hydraulic/open-system pingo [OSPs]) [1-2].

31. Faulted craters as indicators for thrust motion on Mercury

Abstract

Craters cross-cut by faults are used as markers to obtain fault geometric and kinematic properties. Assuming that the shape of these craters was originally circular, it is possible to measure the horizontal and vertical components of fault displacement as well as the slip trend. By applying trigonometric relations, slip plunge, displacement magnitude, fault true dip and fault rake can be derived from the observed values. An example application of this method on craters faulted by lobate scarps on Mercury shows that most of these inferred reverse faults have moderate oblique-slip trends. Moreover, the derived dips of thrusts vary over a wide range of angles. Some preliminary results in terms of fault rake compared with fault dip, strike and latitude are presented together with a pilot study to test and discriminate global tectonic models suggested for the evolution of Mercury. The possibility of estimating quantitative fault parameters through remotely sensed data provides significant assistance in the structural characterization of faults on planetary surfaces.

Abstract

International audience; The DREAMS (Dust characterization, Risk assessment and Environment Analyser on the Martian Surface) instrument on Schiaparelli lander of ExoMars 2016 mission was an autonomous meteorological station designed to completely characterize the Martian atmosphere on surface, acquiring data not only on temperature, pressure, humidity, wind speed and its direction, but also on solar irradiance, dust opacity and atmospheric electrification; this comprehensive set of parameters would assist the quantification of risks and hazards for future manned exploration missions mainly related to the presence of airborne dust.Schiaparelli landing on Mars was in fact scheduled during the foreseen dust storm season (October 2016 in Meridiani Planum) allowing DREAMS to directly measure the characteristics of such extremely harsh environment.DREAMS instrument’s architecture was based on a modular design developing custom boards for analog and digital channel conditioning, power distribution, on board data handling and communication with the lander. The boards, connected through a common backbone, were hosted in a central electronic unit assembly and connected to the external sensors with dedicated harness. Designed with very limited mass and an optimized energy consumption, DREAMS was successfully tested to operate autonomously, relying on its own power supply, for at least two Martian days (sols) after landing on the planet.A total of three flight models were fully qualified before launch through an extensive test campaign comprising electrical and functional testing, EMC verification and mechanical and thermal vacuum cycling; furthermore following the requirements for planetary protection, contamination control activities and assay sampling were conducted before model delivery for final integration on spacecraft .During the six months cruise to Mars following the successful launch of ExoMars on 14th March 2016, periodic check outs were conducted to verify instrument health check and update mission timelines for operation. Elaboration of housekeeping data showed that the behaviour of the whole instrument was nominal during the whole cruise. Unfortunately DREAMS was not able to operate on the surface of Mars, due to the known guidance anomaly during the descent that caused Schiaparelli to crash at landing.The adverse sequence of events at 4 km altitude anyway triggered the transition of the lander in surface operative mode, commanding switch on the DREAMS instrument, which was therefore able to correctly power on and send back housekeeping data. This proved the nominal performance of all DREAMS hardware before touchdown demonstrating the highest TRL of the unit for future missions.The spare models of DREAMS are currently in use at university premises for the development of autonomous units to be used in cubesat mission and in probes for stratospheric balloons launches in collaboration with Italian Space Agency.

38. Faulted craters as indicators for thrust motions on Mercury

Author

Galluzzi, V., Achille, G. Di, Ferranti, L., Popa, C., Palumbo, Pasquale, and ITA

Abstract

Craters cross-cut by faults are used as markers to obtain fault geometric and kinematic properties. Assuming that the shape of these craters was originally circular, it is possible to measure the horizontal and vertical components of fault displacement as well as the slip trend. By applying trigonometric relations, slip plunge, displacement magnitude, fault true dip and fault rake can be derived from the observed values. An example application of this method on craters faulted by lobate scarps on Mercury shows that most of these inferred reverse faults have moderate oblique-slip trends. Moreover, the derived dips of thrusts vary over a wide range of angles. Some preliminary results in terms of fault rake compared with fault dip, strike and latitude are presented together with a pilot study to test and discriminate global tectonic models suggested for the evolution of Mercury. The possibility of estimating quantitative fault parameters through remotely sensed data provides significant assistance in the structural characterization of faults on planetary surfaces.

Abstract

Laser ablation may be useful in debulking of benign thyroid nodules.In order to retrospectively evaluate the effectiveness and safety of laser ablation, 45 patients with benign solid thyroid nodules, with a fluid component ≤20%, were included in our series between October 2009 and January 2011. All reported pressure and/or cosmetic complaints. Nd:YAG laser at 1064 nm was used, with a fix-power (3W), changing the application time. All patients were evaluated at baseline, 6 months, and 12 months and any complications were recorded.Mean nodule volume reduction decreased from 24.2 mL ± 19.4 to 4.5 ± 5.2 at 12 months (p .001). Mean nodule volume reduction was 84% ± 13. Cosmetic signs were completely resolved in 87%, reduced in 9%, unchanged in 2%, and pressure symptoms were resolved in 88%. One patient experienced transient dysphonia.Ultrasound-guided laser ablation is an effective tool for treatment of symptomatic benign thyroid nodules in patients not eligible for surgery.

Abstract

International audience; The ExoMars programme, which is carried out by European Space Agency (ESA) in cooperation with the Russian federal Space Agency (Roscosmos), foresees a two-steps mission to Mars. The first mission consists of an orbiter and an Entry Descent and Landing Demonstrator Module (EDM) to be launched in January 2016 and is scheduled to land on the planet during the statistical dust storm season; the second mission includes a descent module, a surface platform and a rover and will be launched in 2018. The DREAMS (Dust characterization, Risk assessment and Environment Analyser on the Martian Surface) experiment for ExoMars 2016 is an autonomous meteorological station designed to study the effect of dust on Martian environment which will operate for two Martian days (sols) relying on its own power supply after landing. DREAMS includes a suite of sensors able to analyse temperature, pressure, humidity, wind speed and direction and solar irradiance as well as an electric field probe which will perform the first electrical characterization of Mars surface atmosphere.

Abstract

As life expectancy increases and population ages, the already enormous impact of neurodegeneration on society will become even larger without better prevention and treatment. Developing strategies to prevent degeneration of neurons and to promote a healthy nervous system is, thus, critical. The development of pharmacological agents that would increase production of new neurons was recently facilitated by the identification of the hormonal regulators of various steps of adult neurogenesis. The proposed book is writen by a group of top world experts involved in the study of the mechanisms of hormonal control of brain damage and repair. The effects of thyroid and steroid hormones (estrogens, androgens, progestins, gluco-mineralo-corticoids, various neurosteroids) or polypeptide hormones (CRF, urocortins, somatostastin, GH/IGF, leptin, prolactin, PACAP, erythropoetin) on neuronal survival and neurogenesis in various neurodegenerative conditions and in brain aging will be discussed in detail. The proposed book is unique because it gives a comprehensive account of the neuroprotective and neurogenic effects of steroid and polypeptide hormones. Furthermore, new pharmacological approaches for treatment of neurodegenerative conditions are presented, based on the neuroprotective and neurogenic properties of natural and synthetic hormones.
