  1. 1. Fermi-LAT gamma-ray and multi-wavelength SED analysis and modelling of PKS 0426-380 : A thesis analysing the behaviour and properties of the blazar PKS 0426-380

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

    Author : Nathanael Löfström; [2022]
    Keywords : active galactic nucleus; black hole; AGN; Fermi-LAT; JetSeT;

    Abstract : An analysis is made on the Flat Spectrum Radio Quasar PKS 0426-380 using two sets of data. The first set of data is the Fermi-LAT data collected over the time 54682.66 − 59317.66 in Modified Julian Date within the energy range of 100 MeV to 500 GeV. READ MORE

  2. 2. A study of the gamma-ray emission from the blazar S50716+71 using the Fermi-LAT telescope

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

    Author : Fredrik Vislander; [2022]
    Keywords : AGN; active galactic nuclei; Fermi-LAT; astrophysics; gamma-rays; synchrotron self-Compton; SSC; S50716 71.;

    Abstract : This thesis sums up a bachelor project in which gamma-ray emission from an extra-galactic source (S50716+71) is studied using data collected by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT). The emission consists of 12,5 years of data (April 2008 to February 2020) in the energy range 100 MeV - 300 GeV. READ MORE

  3. 3. Constraints on the High-Energy Gamma-Ray Spectrum of Nearby Star-Forming Galaxies

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Fysikum

    Author : Oskar Svenborn; [2021]
    Keywords : Gamma-ray emission; High-Energy astrophysics; Star-Forming Galaxies; Star formation; Cosmic rays; Fermi-LAT.;

    Abstract : The nature of high-energy gamma-ray emission from Star-Forming Galaxies is of utmost importance for understanding both the origin of Cosmic Rays and the high-energy processes that shape galaxy formation. Observations from the gamma-ray telescope Fermi-LAT have detected gamma-ray emission from a handful of nearby Star-Forming Galaxies. READ MORE

  4. 4. A gamma-ray study of a highly variable blazar : The Fermi-LAT analysis and the modeling of the FSRQ PKS 1510–089

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

    Author : Nadja Bollström; [2021]
    Keywords : active galactic nuclei; AGN; astrophysics; jet; PKS 1510-089; Fermi; external Compton model; gamma-rays;

    Abstract : The subject of this thesis is the analysis and modeling of the active galactic nucleus PKS 1510-089. The aim is to present a thorough background of active galactic nuclei combined with the analysis and modeling of a specific active galactic nucleus. The results will then be  linked to previous research and theories about active galactic nuclei. READ MORE

  5. 5. Black holes as standard candles through their Hawking radiations.

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Fysikum

    Author : Tabatha DUFOUR; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : As they are evaporating, black holes are emitting radiations called Hawking radiations. Our goal is to determine at which distance it is possible to measure those radiations with current telescopes. Being capable of measuring those radiations would mean that we can use them as standard candles i.e. READ MORE
