6. Testing aerosol vertical profiling methods with portable instruments on unmanned and manned aircraft
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : This thesis employed several portable sensors on board an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and manned aircraft in order to test new methods of measuring vertical profiles of aerosol particles and contribute to knowledge of aerosol distributions in the atmosphere. More data in this area is required to improve atmospheric modelling and future climate scenarios. READ MORE

7. Hyper-velocity stars from globular clusters hosting intermediate-mass black holes
University essay from Lunds universitet/Astrofysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenAbstract : In 1988 Hills proposed that stars can gain velocities above 500 km s−1 if they are in a stellar binary which gets disrupted by a super massive black hole (SMBH). One of the stars would get trapped in an elliptical orbit around the SMBH while the other gets ejected and obtains a relatively high velocity. READ MORE

8. Hawkes Processes on Socialand Mass Media: : A Causal Study of the #BlackLivesMatter Movement inthe Summer of 2020
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statistik, AI och data scienceAbstract : In this work we study interactions in social media and the reports in mass media during the Black LivesMatter (BLM) protests following the death of George Floyd. We implement open-source pipelines to process the data at scale and employ the self-exciting counting process known as Hawkes process to address our main question: is there a causal relation between interactions in social media and reports of street protests in mass media? Specifically, we use distributed label propagation to identify such interactions in Twitter, that supported the BLM movement, and compared the timing of these interaction to those of news reports of street protests mentioning George Floyd, via the Global Database of Events, Language, and Tone (GDELT) Project.

9. Celebrations in Dark Guise : A Definitional Study of Contemporary Satanic Ritual
University essay from Södertörns högskola/ReligionsvetenskapAbstract : This thesis aims to answer the question “what is contemporary Satanic ritual?” It explores the historical development of Satanic ritual from being a fictional nineteenth-century literary concept, to a means of giving voice to 21st century activism and identity. From its roots in Christian history when the Satanic Black Mass was once a polemic instrument for subduing the other, and its transformation into a meaningful practice with which the oft subdued raise their own voice.

10. Black Holes of the First Stars
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomiAbstract : In this report, we constrain properties of foreground objects in the Milky Way that have the potential of being confused with accretion disks of Population III stellar- mass black holes at high redshift. Following Windhorst et al. (2018), a model for multicolour accretion disks of Population III stellar-mass black holes is presented. READ MORE
