  1. 1. Detecting Lithium Brine in Afghanistan Using Spaceborne Hyperspectral Data

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Torpikay Azizi; [2023-08-18]
    Keywords : PRISMA Hyperspectral data; lithium mineral deposits; lithium brine-rich deposits; Dashti-e- Nawar; boron deposits; Principal Component Analysis PCA ; supervised and unsupervised classification; spectral matching; spectral profile analysis; visible-near-infrared VNIR ; short-wave infrared SWIR Gypsum; Hectorite; Kaolinite; Lepidolite; lithium carbonate; lithium chloride;

    Abstract : The purpose of this thesis is to utilize hyperspectral remote sensing technology for the identification and evaluation of lithium mineral deposits in Afghanistan. Afghanistan boasts unique geological formations with substantial potential for lithium resources beneath its land crust. READ MORE

  2. 2. Observing the radial velocity of the Sun with the AlbaNova heliostat

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för astronomi

    Author : Gustaf Beckman Berg; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The aim of this project was to investigate the radial velocity variations of the Sun as observed from the Earth. This was accomplished by observing Doppler shifts of spectral lines in the region around 6300 Å. Telluric O2 lines were used as reference. READ MORE

  3. 3. Switching to the “Golden Age of Natural Gas” with a focus on shale gas exploitation : a possible bridge to mitigate climate change?

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Hossein Maazallahi; [2015]
    Keywords : Physical Geography and Ecosystem Science; GEM; shale gas exploitation; fugitive methane; climate change; carbon dioxide; age of natural gas; fossil fuel combustion; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Currently, policy makers put high attention in supplying global energy demand by focusing on 2°C policy; global temperature anomaly based on the global mean temperature of pre-industrial era (13.7°C). How to keep the 2°C policy at global scope is the main question in climate framework. READ MORE

  4. 4. Dark Ages Lunar Interferometer : Deployment Rover - Suspension System and Transition Mecanism

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Sektionen för ekonomi och teknik (SET)

    Keywords : rover; conceptual design; suspension system; transition system. NASA; Dark Ages;

    Abstract : This thesis is a continuation of last year's work and it builds on earlier construction of a rover that will deploy an interferometer on the far side of the moon. The project is done in collaboration with (JPL) Jet Propulsion Laboratoryin Pasadena, California. READ MORE

  5. 5. Dark Ages Interferometer (DALI) Deployment Rover: Energy System

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Energiteknik

    Author : Gustav Andersson; Emil Ericsson; [2014]
    Keywords : Rover; Moon; Photovoltaics; Battery; JPL; NASA; Electric; Energy; Solceller; Månen; Batterier; JPL; NASA; Energi;

    Abstract : The cosmic “Dark Ages” is the cosmic era between the epochs of recombination of cosmic microwave background and the formation of the first stars. The only signal from this epoch is from neutral hydrogen, which could represent one of the richest data sets in cosmology. READ MORE
