  1. 21. Possible Bow Shock Current Closure to Earth's High Latitude Ionosphere on Open Field Lines

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Gabriella Nordin; [2023]
    Keywords : Space Physics; Bow Shock Current; Field-Aligned Currents; Open Field Lines;

    Abstract : The bow shock is formed due to the abrupt deceleration of the supersonic solar wind in front of the terrestrial magnetic field. The solar wind plasma and the Interplanetary Magnetic Field (IMF) are both compressed across the shock, and according to Ampère's law a current thus flows on the bow shock at all times. READ MORE

  2. 22. Estimating stellar limb darkening using exoplanet transits

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Astrofysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Sora Ishida; [2023]
    Keywords : Limb-darkening; CHEOPS; Transit; Exoplanet; PYCHEOPS; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The brightness of the stars is not uniform over the surface as it varies depending on the wavelength and the atmosphere that the light propagates. Limb darkening is an optical effect caused by a decrease in brightness of the star towards the edge. READ MORE

  3. 23. Classical Limits in Planetary Motion and Gravitational Radiation

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Sebastian Gustasson; Emma Andersson; [2023]
    Keywords : general relativity; frame-dragging; gravitational radiation;

    Abstract : In this report, we analyze general relativistic effects on celestial bodies, including gravitational strength in different metrics, gravitational radiation, and frame-dragging. We present simulation methods for classical and general relativistic motion, through the use of systems of equations that may be numerically integrated. READ MORE

  4. 24. Towards a Green Workforce: Assessing Green Job Preparation in Panamanian and Costa Rican Universities

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för kulturgeografi och ekonomisk geografi; Lunds universitet/LUMID International Master programme in applied International Development and Management

    Author : Julius Ulrich; [2023]
    Keywords : Panama; Costa Rica; Universities; Education for Green Jobs; Education for Sustainable Development; Green Transition; Green Skills; Triple Planetary Crises; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : The triple planetary crisis exerts high pressure on countries to transform their current economic system. The transition to a green economy is not only necessary to ensure sustainable development but also essential for countries to remain economically competitive. READ MORE

  5. 25. A Mechatronic Jar Opener : A Design Study of a Motorized Home Appliance for Improved Accessibility

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Charlotte Paulson Ramel; Sofia Mobrin; [2023]
    Keywords : Mechatronics; Improved accessibility; Torque; Planetary Gear; Arduino; Motorized Home Appliance.; Mekatronik; Förbättrad tillgänglighet; Vridmoment; Planetväxel; Arduino; Hemelektronik.;

    Abstract : Mechatronics is a rapidly growing field that combines elements of mechanical, electrical, and software engineering to design and develop intelligent systems. One area where mechatronics still has the potential to have a significant impact is personal appliances and aids for people with disabilities, which this report aims to explore. READ MORE
