1. 1. Cosmic Dust Detection by the Solar Orbiter Using Machine Learning

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutet för rymdfysik, Uppsalaavdelningen

   Author : Joar Lönngren; Ludwig Tiston; [2023]
   Keywords : Machine Learning; Neural Network; Cosmic Dust; Solar Orbiter; Space Physics; Space Dust;

   Abstract : This project aims to investigate neural network systems as an effective tool for the in-space captured dust impact signal detection. Cosmic dust is the nanometre to micrometre fine-sized particles that exist in the interplanetary region. They originate from comets, asteroids, the planets and their moons and rings, or even the interstellar region. READ MORE

3. 2. Concept investigation into Metal Plasma Source for High Powered Space Applications

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

   Author : Ludvig Borg; [2023]
   Keywords : High-powered; Electric Propulsion; Vacuum Arc Thruster; VASIMR; Metal Plasma; Magnetohydrodynamics; COMSOL Multiphysics;

   Abstract : This thesis explores the potential of utilizing metal-based plasma sources as a sustainable solution for high-powered electric propulsion and its implications for future interplanetary travel. Focusing on the Vacuum Arc Thruster and the Variable Specific Impulse Magnetoplasma Rocket engine, the study encompasses numerical simulations, analytical comparisons, and performance analyses to assess the feasibility of metal plasma fuels in space missions.

4. 3. Multiple fly-by for interplanetary missions

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

   Author : Javier Chivite Sierra; [2021]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Current state-of-the-art of propulsion system for space vehicles does not allow to deliver therequired payload for the mission to all bodies in the Solar System. Therefore, alternatives havebeen developed to reach those bodies without having the necessary technology. READ MORE

5. 4. Design, Modelling and Control of a Space UAV for Mars Exploration

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

   Author : Akash Patel; [2021]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Mars : The red planet has been on top in the priority list of interplanetary exploration of the solar system. The Mars exploration landers and rovers have laid the foundation of our understanding of the planet atmosphere and terrain. READ MORE

6. 5. Methods to operate and evaluate the performance of a cold-gas CubeSat propulsion system on a magnetically stabilised satellite

   University essay from KTH/Rymdteknik

   Author : Victor Alberto Gonzalez Marin; [2020]
   Keywords : Propulsion system; CubeSat; Performance; Operating procedure; Mission experiment; Framdrivningssystem; CubeSat; Prestanda; Driftsrutin; Driftprov;

   Abstract : Propulsion systems allow satellites to perform many functionalities in space, such as orbital station keeping, reentry control, attitude control, orbital transferring, rendezvous operation, and even more thrilling, interplanetary travel. Indeed, propulsion systems in satellites have fostered a new favourable era of space exploration and application, therefore, detailed processes to operate propulsion systems need to be developed so that space missions, carrying this valuable system, are completed successfully.
