    openL’elaborato va a trattare in dettaglio la messa in orbita del James Webb Space Telescope, il telescopio spaziale più grande mai costruito entrato in funzione nell’estate del 2022. Si concentra sulle caratteristiche del lanciatore, dell’orbita e della sequenza di deployment, ovvero le fasi più critiche che assicurano il funzionamento dei sistemi di bordo. Partendo dal decollo del vettore fino al completo dispiegamento in orbita, nella tesi viene ripercorso un arco temporale di eventi che precedono l’utilizzo scientifico del nuovo telescopio. La ricerca bibliografica si è basata sulla consultazione di articoli e informazioni specifiche, sfruttando l’attualità dell’argomento e introducendo i primi importanti risultati ottenuti dal satellite scientifico

    An accurate automated speaker counting architecture based on James Webb Pattern

    No full text
    Speaker counting is an important research area in sound forensics. There are limited speaker counting papers in the literature, as it is challenging to collect datasets. This work aims to collect a new overlapping speech signal dataset for speaker counting and propose a novel feature engineering model. In this work, textural feature extraction is based on the iconic James Webb space telescope; hence, this pattern is named James Webb Pattern (JWPat). A new speaker counting speech dataset comprising 3,121 speeches divided into 32 classes (the class number corresponded to the number of speakers) was collected. A new framework that mimics the deep learning model has been proposed to classify the collected speech classes. The proposed feature engineering model is self-organized and uses various mother wavelet functions to generate features at both low and high levels. We have obtained the best classification accuracy of 86.74% using the symlet4 mother wavelet function. Using our proposed framework, eight classification results have been calculated with accuracy ranging from 75.94% to 86.74%. This range is over 10% accuracy, and it demonstrates the effect of the mother wavelet function on the classification performance. Moreover, the feature extraction capability of the mirror of the James Webb telescope has been demonstrated. Our proposed method yielded 86.74% accuracy on a large dataset and indicated the success of our proposed model

    The James Webb Space Telescope

    The James Webb Space Telescope is the scientific successor to the Hubble and Spitzer Space Telescopes, and is currently the largest scientific project under construction in the United States. It will be a large (6.6m) cold (50K) telescope launched in about 5 years into orbit around the second Earth-Sun Lagrange point. It is a partnership of NASA with the European and Canadian Space Agencies. Science with the James Webb Space Telescope falls into four themes. The End of the Dark Ages: First Light and Reionization theme seeks to identify the first luminous sources to form and to determine the ionization history of the universe. The Assembly of Galaxies theme seeks to determine how galaxies and the dark matter, gas, stars, metals, morphological structures, and black holes within them evolved from the epoch of reionization to the present. The Birth of Stars and Proto planetary Systems theme seeks to unravel the birth and early evolution of stars, from infall onto dust-enshrouded protostars, to the genesis of planetary systems. The Planetary Systems and the Origins of Life theme seeks to determine the physical and chemical properties of planetary systems around nearby stars and of our own, and investigate the potential for life in those systems. Webb will have four instruments: The Near-Infrared Camera, the Near-Infrared multi-object Spectrograph, and the Tunable Filter Imager will cover the wavelength range 0.6 to 5 microns, while the Mid-Infrared Instrument will do both imaging and spectroscopy from 5 to 28.5 microns. I will conclude the talk with a description of recent technical progress in the construction of the observatory

    Observations of transiting exoplanets with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST)

    This article summarizes a workshop held on March, 2014, on the potential of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to revolutionize our knowledge of the physical properties of exoplanets through transit observations. JWST’s unique combination of high sensitivity and broad wavelength coverage will enable the accurate measurement of transits with high signal-to-noise ratio (S/N). Most importantly, JWST spectroscopy will investigate planetary atmospheres to determine atomic and molecular compositions, to probe vertical and horizontal structure, and to follow dynamical evolution, i.e., exoplanet weather. JWST will sample a diverse population of planets of varying masses and densities in a wide variety of environments characterized by a range of host star masses and metallicities, orbital semi-major axes, and eccentricities. A broad program of exoplanet science could use a substantial fraction of the overall JWST mission
