  1. 1. Investigating UV nightglow within the framework of the JEM-EUSO Experiments

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

    Author : Frej-Eric Emmoth; [2020]
    Keywords : JEM-EUSO; Airglow; Atmospheric Gravity Waves; EUSO-TA; Mini-EUSO;

    Abstract : The main mission of the JEM-EUSO (Extreme Universe Space Observatory) Collaborationis to observe Cosmic Rays. These high energy particles come from a variety of sources and bombard the Earth all the time. READ MORE

  3. 2. Simulation study of meteors for the Mini-EUSO experiment on the ISS

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Petter Bühlman; John Sigvant; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Mini-EUSO is an UV telescope developed by the JEM-EUSO collaboration and will be placed on the international space station in the end of 2017. Mini-EUSO is a precursor based on the same technology as the larger UV telescope known as JEM-EUSO. The primary objective of Mini-EUSO is to test the system to help to optimize the JEMEUSO instrument. READ MORE

  4. 3. A new model and tests of the JEM-EUSO Balloon pathfinders Fresnel optics

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Abraham Neftali Díaz Damián; [2016]
    Keywords : Cosmic Rays; Fresnel Optics; Extensive Air Showers; Instrumentation;

    Abstract : EUSO-Balloon and EUSO-SPB are balloon borne pathfinder projects designed to val- idate the techniques of the JEM-EUSO space observatory. They are nadir pointing UV telescopes that use experimental experimental Fresnel optics to detect the ultravi- olet emission of Extensive Air Showers (EAS) induced by Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR) in the atmosphere.

  5. 4. Determining the Requirements for the Star Tracker on JEM-EUSO

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Youssef Dhraief; Farid Hedayati; [2015]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This work will focus on how the JEM-EUSO project, which orbits around Earth on the International Space Station and whose purpose is to detect air shower from the atmosphere caused by high energy particles from outer space, will be able to determine its positon once it detects such air shower. This is best done by adding a star tracker to it. READ MORE

  6. 5. Bachelor Thesis in UHECR detection and the JEM-EUSO mission

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Beshoory Firas; [2014]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The interest in high-energy astrophysics and to venture beyond the standard model has driven theoretical and experimental physicists around the world to collaborate and buildthe necessary instrumentation to test out all the different theories in particle physics. Energies up to 14 TeV have been thoroughly investigated so far by colliding protons in the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). READ MORE
