  1. 1. Measuring copper abundances in the Galactic Bulge

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Astrofysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Nikolei Höglinger; [2024]
    Keywords : Copper; Galaxy: abundances; Galaxy: bulge; Chemical Evolution; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Context: The chemical evolution of Cu in the Galactic bulge have been studied in a few studies using red giant branch stars, but the ages of individual red giant stars are difficult to determine. In addition, the bulge has been a challenging region of the Milky Way galaxy to obtain high-resolution spectra of stars, except when observing through certain few small fields into the bulge that are known to have low extinction.

  3. 2. Detecting Lithium Brine in Afghanistan Using Spaceborne Hyperspectral Data

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Torpikay Azizi; [2023-08-18]
    Keywords : PRISMA Hyperspectral data; lithium mineral deposits; lithium brine-rich deposits; Dashti-e- Nawar; boron deposits; Principal Component Analysis PCA ; supervised and unsupervised classification; spectral matching; spectral profile analysis; visible-near-infrared VNIR ; short-wave infrared SWIR Gypsum; Hectorite; Kaolinite; Lepidolite; lithium carbonate; lithium chloride;

    Abstract : The purpose of this thesis is to utilize hyperspectral remote sensing technology for the identification and evaluation of lithium mineral deposits in Afghanistan. Afghanistan boasts unique geological formations with substantial potential for lithium resources beneath its land crust. READ MORE

  4. 3. 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

  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
