1. 1. Volumetric Rendering of the Inner Coma of a Theoretically Modelled Comet for Comet Interceptor Mission

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

   Author : Amal Vinod; [2023]
   Keywords : Volumetric rendering; rendering; Comet; Coma; Dust Coma; Gas Coma; Blender; Comet Interceptor;

   Abstract : The Comet Interceptor is a joint mission by European Space Agency (ESA) and Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) which seeks to perform a flyby over a Long Period Comet using a multi-element spacecraft. The Comet Interceptor comprises three spacecrafts- A, B1 and B2. READ MORE

3. 2. Creation of a Finite Element Model andSystem Analysis for the Low and HighFrequency Cryogenic Telescopes of theSpace Mission LiteBIRD

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

   Author : Matias Rittatore Texeira; [2022]
   Keywords : FEM; FEA; mesh model; CMB; IRAP;

   Abstract : The Lite (Light) satellite for the study of B-mode polarization and Inflation from cosmic background Radiation Detection (LiteBIRD) is a Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA)-led Strategic Large-Class mission designed to search for the existence of the primordial gravitational waves produced during the inflationary phase of the early Universe, through the measurement of their imprint onto the polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). It is an international collaboration, with European Union (EU) operations being coordinated by France. READ MORE

4. 3. Image simulations of the mission Martian Moons eXploration

   University essay from KTH/Rymdteknik

   Author : Romain Domagala; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Martian Moons eXploration is a JAXA-lead mission aiming at exploring the moons of Mars, Phobos and Deimos. The hyperspectral infrared camera provided by France should perform global mapping of Phobos at high resolution in order to characterize surface composition and therefore help determine the origins of the moons.

5. 4. Model for Touchdown Dynamics of a Lander on the Solar Power Sail Mission

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

   Author : Roger Gutierrez Ramon; [2016]
   Keywords : ISAS; JAXA; Lander; Solar Sail; Touchdown Dynamics; Jupiter trojans;

   Abstract : The ISAS/JAXA Solar Power Sail mission, bound to explore the Jupiter trojans, will face many challenges during its journey. The landing manoeuvre is one of the most critical parts of any space mission that plans to investigate the surface of celestial bodies. READ MORE

6. 5. Low–voltage External Discharge Plasma Thruster and Hollow Cathodes Plasma Plume Diagnostics Utilising Electrostatic Probes and Retarding Potential Analyser

   Keywords : space electric propulsion; in-space advanced propulsion technology; Hall effect thruster; hollow cathode; wall-less Hall thruster; external discharge plasma thruster; single Langmuir probe; double Langmuir probe; emissive probe; retarding potential analyzer; plume plasma diagnostics; low-voltage Hall thruster; high-current hollow cathode; plasma parameters; propulsion electrique pour l espace; cathode creuse à fort courant; propulseur à décharge externe de plasma; propulseur à effet Hall à basse tension; techniques de diagnostic du plasma; sonde de Langmuir simple; sonde de Langmuir double; sonde émissive; analyseur à potentiel retardé;

   Abstract : The present thesis is the result of a research period at the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science of the Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency, ISAS/JAXA within Funaki Laboratory of the Department of Space Flight Systems that followed the path of plume plasma diagnostics for space electric propulsion drives. During the experimental studies two high-current hollow cathodes and an innovative prototype of a low-voltage fully external discharge plasma thruster (XPT) had their plasma plumes diagnosed using electrostatic probes and retarding potential analyser (RPA).
