    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

    Author : Derek van Winden; [2024]
    Keywords : Juice; Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer; JDC; Jovian plasma Dynamics and Composition analyzer; Particle Environment Package; PEP; Jupiter; Ganymede; Callisto; Europa; solar wind; magnetosheath; spacecraft charging; Spacecraft Plasma Interaction Software; SPIS; charging; plasma; measurement perturbations; perturbation; distortion; particle detector; Institutet för Rymdfysik; IRF; Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies; DIAS; European Space Agency; ESA;

    Abstract :  In July 2031, a new chapter in the exploration of the Jovian system will begin with the arrival of the Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (Juice) at Jupiter. Launched on April 14 2024 as part of ESA’s Cosmic Vision programme, the mission aims to study Jupiter and its icy Galilean moons Callisto, Europa, and Ganymede. READ MORE

  2. 2. Preliminary Design and Conceptual Analysis of an Electrically Actuated Pintle Injector

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Simone Guietti; [2024]
    Keywords : Pintle injector; space propulsion; space engineering;

    Abstract : ”The Eagle has landed”. With this words, astronaut Neil Armstrong, together with astronaut Edwin ”Buzz” Aldrin, confirmed the safe landing on the Moon of the Apollo11 on July 20th, 1969. This achievement would have never been possible without the engineering behind the construction of the Moon lander. READ MORE

  3. 3. Conceptualising European Strategic Autonomy : A Qualitative Content Analysis of ESA Understandings in Finland and Sweden

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Author : Carl Naylor; [2024]
    Keywords : European Strategic Autonomy ESA ; Versailles Declaration; European security; Finland; Sweden;

    Abstract : European Strategic Autonomy (ESA) has become one of the key concepts in the European security debate. Its essential meaning is that European states need to collectively ensure their autonomy to act independently of external parties in the wake of unfolding geopolitical shifts, such as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

  4. 4. Development and Implementation of Techniques for the Simulation and Processing for Future SAR Systems

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

    Author : Tim Kinnunen; [2023]
    Keywords : Synthetic Aperture Radar; SAR; Reverse Backprojection Algorithm; RBPA; Backprojection Algorithm; SAR simulator; SAR processing;

    Abstract : Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is a type of radar system that can generate high-resolution images with which one can detect subtle changes on the scale of centimetres from space. It can operate in any weather condition and during both day and night, making it unique compared to optical sensors. READ MORE

  5. 5. Study of oblique whistler waves in coronal mass ejections observed by Solar Orbiter

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutet för rymdfysik, Uppsalaavdelningen

    Author : Sofia Lennerstrand; [2023]
    Keywords : Oblique whistler waves; Solar physics; Solar Orbiter;

    Abstract : In this paper a search routine in MATLAB was developed in order to find and analyze oblique whistler waves in the data from the ESA and NASA spacecraft Solar Orbiter. Oblique whistler waves are a type of plasma wave which propagate at an angle with respect to the background magnetic field. READ MORE
