Powerful relativistic jets are one of the ubiquitous features of accreting black holes in all scales. GRS 1915 + 105 is a well-known fast-spinning black-hole X-ray binary with a relativistic jet, termed a 'microquasar', as indicated by its superluminal motion of radio emission. It has exhibited persistent X-ray activity over the last 30 years, with quasiperiodic oscillations of approximately 1-10 Hz (refs.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFFAST is the largest single-dish radio telescope in the world. The characteristics of FAST are presented and analyzed in the context of the parameter space to show how FAST science achievements are affected. We summarize the scientific achievements of FAST and discuss its future science based on the new parts of the parameter space that can be explored by FAST.

Map building and map-based relocalization techniques are important for unmanned vehicles operating in urban environments. The existing approaches require expensive high-density laser range finders and suffer from relocalization problems in long-term applications. This study proposes a novel map format called the ClusterMap, on the basis of which an approach to achieving relocalization is developed.
