The aerospace sector is evolving due to reduced launch costs and standardization of small satellite platforms. This research, aligned with European Guidelines for Thermo-Elastic Verification, addresses the pointing precision gap in small satellites by assessing space telescope performance using uncertainty propagation in thermo-elastic models. The

Since a large fraction of stars harbor at least one planet, the formation of planets around newly forming stars appears to be a common phenomenon. Planet cores are believed to grow by accreting materials from a protoplanetary disk spinning around its host star. This host star has a strong impact on the properties of the protoplanetary disk, and

The recent era of large, ground-based abundance surveys has unraveled the chemical structures of our Milky Way galaxy. The most striking abundance feature is the alpha-abundance bimodality. The low-alpha stars are younger (1-8 Gyr) while the high-alpha stars are older (8-12 Gyr) and have a thicker distribution. While there are a number of models
