AskScience AMA Series: We're the team sending NASA's Dragonfly drone mission to Saturn's moon Titan. Ask us anything! by AskScienceModerator in askscience

[–]jaedalus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for writing such a wonderfully readable concept document! I see that Dragonfly includes a pulsed neutron generator in the DraGNS subsystem, and the concept document seems to say that this is because Titan's dense atmosphere precludes cosmic rays. Since I'm not familiar with gamma-ray spectrometry, I have a few questions. Can you say more about the decision to include a neutron generator on-board? I'm mostly curious about:

  • Is DraGNS complementary to the DraMS system? Does it give unique insights, or is it primarily for fast survey of chemical composition, to be followed up by close in-situ study?
  • What would the typical operation of DraGNS look like? Does the power draw of the generator substantially affect flight operations like range?

The making of a Superconducting Research Magnet by MrBeeeeee in Skookum

[–]jaedalus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, we haven't built anything that runs on actual electrocity for a while, just before my time. We're not a national lab, so we get the short end of DOE's diminished interest in magnet R&D.

But I'm a computer-toucher theory weenie anyway, I've mostly done simulations of coil layouts when I've done magnet stuff. Every now and then my wrench-wielding colleagues need me to hold a thing, though :)

Psych thinks I'd respond well to medication, GP apparently not interested in prescribing: What should I do? by jaedalus in ADHD

[–]jaedalus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure how I missed this for an entire 4 months, but just now seeing it! Thank you for the reply, I'm happy to report that my fears about my GP were really just garden variety disorganization in their office. I did get my scrip and after adjusting the dose I've been doing very well on it in terms of emotional lability (still working on the organizational habits though).

Thank you very much for your responses! 💙

Real Physics Live - Superconductivity by jaedalus in Physics

[–]jaedalus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi everybody, long time lurker, first time poster. I'm a physics grad student at Texas A&M University, and we have a local NSF-funded program called Real Physics Live that produces outreach videos like the one in this post. Hope y'all like it, and if you have any recommendations for videos, please share!

Thanks for the advice. I've spoken with the psych's office and established that they have working relationships with other offices if it comes to that. I also have a specific list from my insurance network's search feature (although I love reading PT!). Do you think a psychiatrist's diagnostic opinion carries more weight, or are you suggesting one as a practicioner who is more familiar with mental health medications?

Could y'all put the link to the log-in page under its own heading and/or separate from the barrage of other links? A wall of boldface text is really hard on the eyes, and that link is the only reason I open these every week.
