1. 1. Extreme Value Analysis of Flooding Related Parameters for Halmstad

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Ruixiao Jin; [2022]
   Keywords : extreme value; GEV fitting; Halmstad; return level; seasonal variation;

   Abstract : Floods is a serious concern across Europe due to the enormous material damage and death toll. Of alltypes of floods, flash floods and large-scale river floods have become major natural hydrological hazardsin most countries. READ MORE

3. 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

4. 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

5. 4. A search for a prompt atmospheric muon neutrino flux in the northern hemisphere using data releases from IceCube

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

   Author : Marcus Haberland; [2020]
   Keywords : IceCube; flux; neutrinos; neutrino; muon neutrinos; muon neutrino; prompt; astrophysical; student project; contribution; fitting;

   Abstract : The IceCube Neutrino Observatory is a cubic kilometre scale detector for high-energy neutrinos above hundreds of GeV produced in Earth’s atmosphere as well as outside our solar system whenever particles are accelerated to ultra-relativistic energies. The prompt atmospheric contribution is a result of the creation of heavy mesons with charm components in the atmosphere. READ MORE

6. 5. Derivation of a transfer function to estimate the Z(vv)+jets background from photon+jets in a search for dark matter at the ATLAS detector

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Emelie Olsson; [2019]
   Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : It has for long been known that dark matter must exist in our universe. Despite massive efforts to detect dark matter, its constituents remain a mystery. One strategy to unveil this mystery is to produce dark matter by colliding Standard Model particles. READ MORE
