  1. 1. Sustainable food packaging based on polyhydroxyalkanoate

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Safana Al-Ashor; [2024]
    Keywords : Biopolymers; Sustainable food packaging; Circular economy; Biobased and biodegradable materials; Food packaging; Processing technologies; Food quality; Shelf-life;

    Abstract : The Norwegian Food Research Institute (Nofima) and the University of Borås worked together to develop this project. The commonly used packaging materials pose a serious threat to the environment, as they are produced from nonrenewable crude oil and cannot decompose naturally. READ MORE

  3. 2. Wavelength-dependent limb darkeningin the analysis oftransit spectroscopy of exoplanets

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

    Author : Alberto García Ribas; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Limb darkening, an optical effect characteristic of stars, where the limb (edge) seemsto be darker than the centre of the stellar body; plays an important role in our under-standing of exoplanetary transits, as it is fundamental for developing light curve modelsthat can help to undercover extrasolar companions. To recover atmospheric featuresfrom exoplanets, a principal component analysis method is typically used. READ MORE

  4. 3. James Webb Space Telescope Observations of Jupiter’s Moon Europa

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

    Author : Aulon Nura; Isac Engblom; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The creation of life has puzzled humanity since the dawn of time. With the launch of thecutting-edge James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) at last year's closing, the next step in humanity'ssearch for life has been taken. READ MORE

  5. 4. Using the James Webb Space Telescope to Find Carbon Dioxide on Ganymede

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

    Author : Olof Helgesson; Oscar Lundin; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The aim of this bachelor's thesis is to search for CO₂ on Ganymede by studyingobservations taken by the James Webb Space Telescope and in doing so, create aprocessing pipeline for JWST data. The data is collected by JWST's Near InfraredSpectrograph instrument which is used for spectroscopy in the near infrared spectrum. READ MORE

  6. 5. Silicon Drift Detector Simulations for Energy-Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy in Scanning Electron Microscopy

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Fysikum

    Author : Sebbe Blokhuizen; [2023]
    Keywords : X-ray spectroscopy; Silicon drift detector; Scanning Electron Microscopy; Detector Simulation;

    Abstract : Scanning Electron Microscopy combined with Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (SEM-EDS) is a widely applied elemental microanalysis method. The integration of silicon drift detectors (SDDs) has notably enhanced EDS performance, enabling precise elemental identification due to its large sensitive area and low output capacitance. READ MORE
