  1. 1. Definition and evaluation of a system for measuring local geomagnetic variations : Autonomous station for magnetic measurements

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Viktor Olsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Local Geomagnetic Variations; Fluxgate Magnetometer; Space Weather; Solar Wind; Magnetic Measurements; Variometer; Solar Activity.; Lokala geomagnetiska variationer; Fluxgate-Magnetometer; Rymdväder; Solvinden; Magnetiska Mätningar; Variometer; Solaktivitet.;

    Abstract : Earth is under constant influence of the Sun and phenomena driven by the solar wind that may affect man-made technology. These events are summarized under the concept of space weather. This creates variations in Earth’s magnetic field and nearby space. Space weather can affect power grids, gas pipelines and also have effects on human health. READ MORE

  3. 2. A statistical investigation of Bursty Bulk Flow event dynamics in the Earth magnetotail

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Thomas Zhang; [2014]
    Keywords : Bursty Bulk Flow; Cluster; Curlometer method; Lorentz force;

    Abstract : A statistical investigation of the relationship between Lorentz force and Bursty Bulk Flow event (BBF) spatial location in the magnetotail is undertaken. Data is obtained in situ by the ESA Cluster II mission during the period July to October 2004. Firstly, a short introduction to BBFs and the Cluster mission is presented. READ MORE

  4. 3. Numerical Modeling and Evaluation of the Small Magnetometer in Low-Mass Experiment (SMILE)

    University essay from KTH/Rymd- och plasmafysik

    Author : Israel Alejandro Arriaga Trejo; [2007]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Fluxgate magnetometers have played a major role in space missions due to their stability, range of operation and low energy consumption. Their principle of operation is relatively simple and easy to implement, a nonlinear magnetic material is driven into saturation by an alternating excitation current inducing a voltage that is modulated by the external field intended to be measured.

  5. 4. Evaluation and optimization of the SMILE fluxgate magnetometer

    University essay from KTH/Rymd- och plasmafysik

    Author : Terry Edberg; [2007]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The report shows the development during the last six months of the SMILE fluxgate magnetometer from a basic platform into a first generation magnetometer. The purpose of the SMILE project is to develop a miniaturized digital fluxgate magnetometer for the Nanospace project. READ MORE

  6. 5. Designing a miniaturized fluxgate magnetometer

    University essay from KTH/Rymd- och plasmafysik

    Author : Åke Forslund; [2006]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : SMILE (Small Magnetometer In Low-mass Experiment) is a digital fluxgate magnetometer designed with miniaturization as a goal. The instrument is intended asa payload for the Microlink (previously Nanospace) satellite. SMILE operates onsimilar principles as the magnetometer onboard Astrid-2 satellite. READ MORE
