1. Electric propulsion of satellites as an alternative for implementation of a sunshade system
University essay from KTH/FysikAbstract : As an alternative solution to global warming, this thesis explores the possibility of aspace-based geoengineering scheme that may prove worthwhile to implement in parallel toother environmental efforts that help mitigate impact of climate change. One suggestionof a geoengineering solution is deploying a large number of sunshades in the vicinity ofthe first Lagrange point of the Sun-Earth system, and this prospective sunshade projectwould serve to shield Earth from incident solar radiation.

2. B-plane orbital resonance analysis and applications
University essay from KTH/RymdteknikAbstract : Many space engineering and orbital mechanics applications seek for the usage of focused mathematical models, capable of providing useful insight onto particular phenomena or exploiting some theoretical and physical tools to reduce the computational costs and/or increase the level of accuracy reached. Orbital resonances are one of the phenomena that needs to be properly modelled, both for exploiting such features in the mission design phase and to predict possible resonant returns of threatening objects closely approaching a specified planet.

3. An Orbit Control System for UWE-4 Using the High Fidelity Simulation Tool Orekit
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknikAbstract : Cubesats are picosatellites that have a mass of less than 1.3kg and have a shape of acube. As a result of their low cost of development and launch, cubesats are gainingpopularity in industry and academia. These satellites are also a cost-efective way forspace technology demonstrations.

4. Studying the Dissociation Dynamics of Carbon Dioxide
University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/MAX IV-laboratorietAbstract : Small molecules, and their fragmentation to smaller constituents upon excitation, are often used to understand how the bonds in a molecule are formed and how they break. One of such widely studied model molecule is CO2. This study aims at extending the knowledge of dissociation of carbon dioxide by measuring also the negatively charged fragments. READ MORE

5. Chemical bond analysis in the ten-electron series
University essay from Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologiAbstract : This thesis presents briefly the application of quantum mechanics on systems ofchemical interest, i.e., the field of quantum chemistry and computational chemistry.The molecules of the ten-electron series, hydrogen fluoride, water, ammonia,methane and neon, are taken as computational examples.
