  1. 1. Simulations of the Tenuous Upper Atmospheres of Exoplanets

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

    Author : Lucian Spitzner; [2023]
    Keywords : astronomy; astrophyics; exoplanets; transmission spectroscopy; magnetic fields; atmospheres; ions; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Over the last decade, the interest in research on extraterrestrial planets has expanded dramatically. With the number of confirmed exoplanets having increased tenfold over the last ten years, we now know that many different types of exoplanets exist. READ MORE

  3. 2. Modelling Ganymede’s Aurora

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

    Author : James Tammila; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A 3D model of Ganymede’s aurora is created using captured data from the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS), on board the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). The data is processed into 24 images and analyzed. A 3D grid is generated around the moon to implement a functional model to describe the aurora. READ MORE

  4. 3. Measuring the [C II]-to-H I connection in high-redshift absorption-selected galaxies

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Gaurav Senthil Kumar; [2022]
    Keywords : QSO; Quasar; Black Hole; AGN; Active Galactic Nuclei; DLA; Damped Lyman Alpha; C II; [C II]; H I; Sightline; HST; X-shooter; Spectroscopy; Echelle Spectroscope; Hyperfine transition; Hyperfine; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : HI neutral gas is the basic building block of galaxies. It dictates the star formation rate and hence the metal enrichment rates within high redshift galaxies. HI neutral gas cannot be directly observed beyond z ≈ 0. READ MORE

  5. 4. Search for Water Plumes on Jupiter’s Moon Europa

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

    Author : Ebba Blom; Wilhelm Branner; [2021]
    Keywords : Europa; Jupiter; Hubble Space Telescope;

    Abstract : Several studies have been conducted with the aimof finding water plumes at Jupiter’s moon Europa. The possibleevidence of plumes is important for two future space missions,the JUpiter ICy moons Explorer (JUICE) and the Europa clippermission. READ MORE

  6. 5. Variability of Io’s Aurora and the Moon’s Footprint on Jupiter

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

    Author : Jens Eilers Bischoff; Sebastian Jovancic; [2020]
    Keywords : Alfv ́en waves; Aurora; HST; Io; Jupiter; Plasma;

    Abstract : We study the variability of intensity of Io’s aurora asa function of Jupiter’s rotation measured in system III longitude.The far-ultraviolet intensity of Io’s aurora was measured by theHubble Space Telescope (HST) using the FUV-MAMA photondetector of the STIS. READ MORE
