THOR: a GPU-accelerated and MPI-parallel radiative transfer code
Emission and absorption line features are important diagnostics for the physics underlying extragalactic astronomy. The interpretation of observed signatures involves comparing against forward modeled spectra from galaxy formation simulations as well as more simplified geometries, while including the complex scattering radiative transfer (RT) of resonant emission lines. Here, we present thor, a modern C++ radiative transfer code focused initially on resonant emission lines. thor is a high-perfo…

THOR: Thermal-guided Hand-Object Reasoning via Adaptive Vision Sampling
Wearable cameras are increasingly used as an observational and interventional tool for human behaviors by providing detailed visual data of hand-related activities. This data can be leveraged to facilitate memory recall for logging of behavior or timely interventions aimed at improving health. However, continuous processing of RGB images from these cameras consumes significant power impacting battery lifetime, generates a large volume of unnecessary video data for post-processing, raises privac…

Integrating Vision Foundation Models with Reinforcement Learning for Enhanced Object Interaction
This paper presents a novel approach that integrates vision foundation models with reinforcement learning to enhance object interaction capabilities in simulated environments. By combining the Segment Anything Model (SAM) and YOLOv5 with a Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) agent operating in the AI2-THOR simulation environment, we enable the agent to perceive and interact with objects more effectively. Our comprehensive experiments, conducted across four diverse indoor kitchen settings, demons…

Heute vor 63 Jahren: Am 20. Juni 1962 wurde ein Thor-Missile der US-Starfish-Testserie nach einer Minute Flug abgebrochen. Ohne nukleare Explosion fielen kontaminierte Teile auf Johnson Island, wo Personal lebte und arbeitete.

High-precision light curves of geostationary objects: The PHANTOM ECHOES 2 RPO campaign
We present results from an extensive optical observation campaign that monitored the Geostationary satellites Intelsat 10-02, Mission Extension Vehicle 2, Thor 5, Thor 6, Thor 7, and Meteosat 11 over a 14 week period that covered the proximity operations and docking of Mission Extension Vehicle 2 with Intelsat 10-02. High-cadence single-color photometric observations are supplemented with targeted multi-color observations, high resolution imaging, and passive radio frequency positioning obtaine…

Heute vor 63 Jahren: Am 25. Juli 1962 explodierte eine Thor-Rakete während der US Operation Dominic I. Der Unfall verteilte waffenfähiges #Plutonium und kontaminierte die Insel schwer. Das Notfallteam war extremer Strahlung ausgesetzt, was zu langfristigen #Krebsleiden führte.
