  1. 11. ALTO Timing Calibration : Calibration of the ALTO detector array based on cosmic-ray simulations

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för fysik och elektroteknik (IFE)

    Author : Sotirios-Ilias Tsivras; [2019]
    Keywords : ALTO; Cosmic-Rays; Water Cherenkov Detector; Python;

    Abstract : This thesis describes a timing calibration method for the detector array of the ALTO experiment. ALTO is a project currently at the prototype phase that aims to build a gamma-ray astronomical observatory at high-altitude in the Southern hemisphere. READ MORE

  3. 12. Near detector simulation studies for CP violation discovery with ESSnuSB

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

    Author : In-Pyo Yeo; [2019]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The neutrino oscillation experiment ESSnuSB aims to measure the CP violation phase in the lepton sector with an intense neutrino beam produced at ESS. If the CP violation is discovered, then the matter-antimatter asymmetry of the Universe can be possibly explained. READ MORE

  4. 13. Evaluation of detector Mini-EUSO to study Ultra High-Energy Cosmic Rays and Ultra Violet light emissions observing from the International Space Station

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Hampus König; [2019]
    Keywords : Mini-EUSO; EUSO; evaluation; data evaluation; plastic detection; fluorescent light;

    Abstract : Under the name EUSO, or Extreme Universe Space Observatory, are multiple instruments where some are currently under design or construction and others have concluded their mission. The main goal they have in common is to detect and analyse cosmic rays with very high energies by using the Earth's atmosphere as a detector. READ MORE

  5. 14. Calibration and evaluation of the secondary sensors for the Mini-EUSO space instrument

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Jonah Ekelund; [2018]
    Keywords : Mini-EUSO; EUSO; calibration; evaluation; near-infrared light; visible light; camera; phosphorus coating;

    Abstract : The Mini-EUSO (Mini - Extreme Universe Space Observatory) is an instrument for observation of ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECR) from space. It is designed to observe Earth from the international space station (ISS) in the ultra-violet (UV), visible (VIS) and near-infrared (NIR) light ranges. READ MORE

  6. 15. Evaluation Analysis of the UV-detector on the Mini-EUSO Space Telescope

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Matej Lukanovic; [2018]
    Keywords : Mini-EUSO; EUSO; Space Telescope;

    Abstract : Extragalactic charged particles, each with energies rising up to and beyond 1 Joule, have been studied for almost a century. Yet, no precise evidence have proven to show where they might originate from as their energy levels rise above the current familiar acceleration sources in outer space. READ MORE
