1. 6. A new model and tests of the JEM-EUSO Balloon pathfinders Fresnel optics

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

   Author : Abraham Neftali Díaz Damián; [2016]
   Keywords : Cosmic Rays; Fresnel Optics; Extensive Air Showers; Instrumentation;

   Abstract : EUSO-Balloon and EUSO-SPB are balloon borne pathfinder projects designed to val- idate the techniques of the JEM-EUSO space observatory. They are nadir pointing UV telescopes that use experimental experimental Fresnel optics to detect the ultravi- olet emission of Extensive Air Showers (EAS) induced by Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR) in the atmosphere.

   University essay from KTH/Fysik

   Author : Youssef Dhraief; Farid Hedayati; [2015]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This work will focus on how the JEM-EUSO project, which orbits around Earth on the International Space Station and whose purpose is to detect air shower from the atmosphere caused by high energy particles from outer space, will be able to determine its positon once it detects such air shower. This is best done by adding a star tracker to it. READ MORE

4. 8. Bachelor Thesis in UHECR detection and the JEM-EUSO mission

   University essay from KTH/Fysik

   Author : Beshoory Firas; [2014]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The interest in high-energy astrophysics and to venture beyond the standard model has driven theoretical and experimental physicists around the world to collaborate and buildthe necessary instrumentation to test out all the different theories in particle physics. Energies up to 14 TeV have been thoroughly investigated so far by colliding protons in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). READ MORE
