  1. 1. A cross-correlation analysis of a warm super-Neptune using transit spectroscopy

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

    Author : Elias Önerud; [2023]
    Keywords : Cross-correlation; cross-correlation spectroscopy; cross-correlation analysis; super-Neptune; astronomy; astrophysics; WASP-107; WASP-107 b; CRIRES ; SysRem; exoplanet; transmission spectrum; transit;

    Abstract : A study was made in order to deduce whether certain chemical species, namely water (H2O) and carbon monoxide (CO), are present in the atmosphere of the exoplanet WASP-107 b, which lies about 200 light-years away from Earth in the constellation Virgo. The project was carried out at Uppsala University at the Department of Physics and Astronomy. READ MORE

  3. 2. Production of natural pigments from A. platensis grown on wastewater from local treatment facility.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik

    Author : Hana Faulds; [2023]
    Keywords : Cyanobacteria; pigments; microalgae; wastewater treatment; biotechnology; Technology and Engineering; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Although microalgae have been considered for the biological treatment of wastewater since the 1950’s, their potential to efficiently remove pollutants from various streams remains largely untapped and is yet to be utilized at large scale. The production of algal biomass and extraction of high-value compounds has, however, become increasingly popular with large scale farms and biorefineries around the world producing many promising alternatives to petroleum-based products and processes.

  4. 3. A quantitative analysis of plume gas distributions from different detection studies on Europa

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Anujan Ranganathan; [2023]
    Keywords : Europa; Water; Plume distribution; Surface Density; Column Density; Total number of molecules; Europa; Vatten; Plym Distribution; Ytdensitet; Kolumndensitet; Total mängd molekyler;

    Abstract : The search for water has been vital in our solar system as water indicates a potential for life. The search has been extended to satellites orbiting the outer planets. It has already been proven that water exists on Saturn’s moon, Enceladus, where the spacecraft Cassini did a flyby through a water plume. READ MORE

  5. 4. Development of Radon Detectors for Earthquake Prediction

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Alma Partos; Astrid Schöldström; [2023]
    Keywords : Radon; earthquake; gamma ray spectroscopy;

    Abstract : The purpose of this project is to simulate the detection of γ-ray spectra emitted by radon isotopes and their daughters. This is done as a contribution to the development of radiation detectors to be used in a research project investigating the possibility of using increased amounts of the radioactive gas radon as an earthquake precursor.

  6. 5. F.I.R.E.S.A.F.E : Automatic fire extinguisher using thermal imaging

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Axel Strömbäck; Linus Sjöstrand; [2023]
    Keywords : Mechatronics; Thermal Imaging; Fire extinguisher; Raspberry Pi; Turret; Mekatronik; Värmekamera; Brandsläckare; Raspberry Pi; Kanontorn;

    Abstract : The purpose of this bachelor’s thesis was to create a functioning turret that can recognize heat sources and automatically shoot water at them using a thermal camera and water pump. The main areas to research was the cameras capability regarding fire detection and also the turret’s efficacy in putting out fires using this detection. READ MORE
