1. Study and characterization of energetic particles from the solar wind entering the magnetosheath region
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : The emphasis of the thesis is on understanding how the high-energy particles of the foreshock are transmitted into the magnetosheath and how this process can be used to specify the conditions upstream of the bow shock with the help of local magnetosheath measurements. In this study, through analyzing the data from the MMS satellites, I try to draw a connection between the flux and wind direction related to Earth’s bow shock. READ MORE

2. Automatic SLAMS detection and magnetospheric classification in MMS data
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Short Large-Amplitude Magnetic Structures (SLAMS) have been observedby spacecraft near Earth’s quasi-parallel bow shock. They arecharacterized by a short and sudden increase of the magnetic field,usually by a factor of 2 or more. READ MORE

3. Probabilistic Discovery of the Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability in the near Earth Environment
University essay from KTH/Rymd- och plasmafysikAbstract : This thesis presents a classification scheme for the Kelvin- Helmholtz (KH) instability as it appears at the Terrestrial magnetospheric boundary through the use of magnetic field measurements obtained from the Geotail spacecraft, Minimum Variance Analysis and Hidden Markov Models. Such a classification scheme is useful for data exploration and comparison tasks. READ MORE
