  1. 11. Investigation of sub-surface ocean induction on Jupiter's icy moon Europa

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutet för rymdfysik, Uppsalaavdelningen; Uppsala universitet/Rymd- och plasmafysik

    Author : Cornelia Ekvall; [2022]
    Keywords : rymdfysik; Jupiter; Europa; magnetiskdipol; JUICE;

    Abstract : Following previous studies, a theoretical model for the induced magnetic field by Europa, one of Jupiter's icy moons, is presented. The aim of the model is to find evidence for the existence of a sub-surface ocean on the moon. READ MORE

  3. 12. Spectroscopic model characterisation of hot exoplanet atmospheres

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Elin Sandvik; [2022]
    Keywords : Transit method; Transmission spectroscopy; Exoplanets; Hot Jupiter; Modelling; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Hot Jupiters are gas giants under intense stellar radiation with short orbital periods of only a few days. Due to their large radii, hot temperatures, and large scale heights, hot Jupiters can be observationally characterised in detail through spectroscopy over an entire orbital phase. READ MORE

  4. 13. Probing for plumes in observations of Europa in transit over Jupiter : A data analysis using Hubble Space Telescope images

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

    Author : Emil Larsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Europa; Jupiter; Hubble Space Telescope; Water; Plumes; Europa; Jupiter; Hubbleteleskopet; Vatten; Plymer;

    Abstract : In 2016 Sparks et al. [14] reported evidence of water plumes above the Galilean moon Europa. Their method consisted of creating a model image of Europa transiting Jupiter and analytically comparing it with an actual far-ultraviolet observation from the Hubble Space Telescope. In 2020 Giono et al. READ MORE

  5. 14. Using Jupiter’s Moon Io as a Plasma Probe

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

    Author : Erik Hedenström; Anton Petrén; [2022]
    Keywords : aurora; Hubble Space Telescope; Io; Jupiter; magnetosphere; plasma;

    Abstract : The structure of the plasma in Jupiter’s vast magnetosphereis complicated and not fully understood. One way to study the plasma is to look at auroral emissions from the moonIo as it moves through different regions of the plasma torus that surrounds Jupiter. READ MORE

  6. 15. Modelling of the Bow Shock and Magnetopause of Jupiter Using In-situ Juno Data

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

    Author : Emanuel Reuithe Löfgren; Lukas Grigelionis; [2022]
    Keywords : Space; Jupiter; Bow Shock; Magnetopause; Juno; Plasma; Modelling;

    Abstract : When the solar wind encounters a planet’s magnetic field, they interact and the different plasma and magnetic field behaviours divides the magnetosphere into different regions. Two important region boundaries to the outer magnetosphere, called the magnetosheath, are the bow shock and magnetopause. READ MORE
