  1. 6. Ionospheric model of comet 67P including the effect of solar EUV attenuation

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi; Uppsala universitet/Institutet för rymdfysik, Uppsalaavdelningen

    Author : Kilian Hikaru Scheutwinkel; [2018]
    Keywords : ionosphere; comet 67P CG; Rosetta;

    Abstract : Comets are the most active around their perigees. The increased outgassing can lead to a coma thick enough to effectively absorb the solar EUV radiation, which engenders a self-shielding comet nucleus and inner layers of the ionosphere. READ MORE

  2. 7. Determination of Solar EUV Intensity and Ion Flux from Langmuir Probe Current Characteristics

    University essay from Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

    Author : Madeleine Holmberg; [2010]
    Keywords : Langmuir probe; Cassini; Ion Flux; EUV flux; photoelectron current;

    Abstract : This report presents a model to determine the solar Extreme UltraViolet (EUV) intensity and the ion flux in the vicinity of Saturn, by using measurements from the Langmuir probe, a plasma investigation instrument, of the Cassini satellite. The model is based on in situ measurements and does therefore provide an improved estimation of the wanted parameters compared to previously used calculations based only on the EUV flux measured near Earth.

  3. 8. Determination of Ion Number Density from Langmuir Probe Measurements in the Ionosphere of Titan

    University essay from Institutionen för teknikvetenskaper

    Author : Oleg Shebanits; [2010]
    Keywords : ion number distribution; titan; ionosphere; langmuir;

    Abstract : Saturn’s largest moon, Titan, presents a very interesting subject for study because of its atmosphere’s complex organic chemistry. Processes taking place there might shed some light on the origins of organic compounds on Earth in its early days. READ MORE
