1. Study of oblique whistler waves in coronal mass ejections observed by Solar Orbiter
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutet för rymdfysik, UppsalaavdelningenAbstract : In this paper a search routine in MATLAB was developed in order to find and analyze oblique whistler waves in the data from the ESA and NASA spacecraft Solar Orbiter. Oblique whistler waves are a type of plasma wave which propagate at an angle with respect to the background magnetic field. READ MORE

2. Effect of the ICRH Antenna Position on the Coupled Power in ITER and JET
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : Fusion energy has fascinated scientists for decades. One reason we do not see thispromising energy source powering today's society is the fact that the process requires extremeplasma temperatures. READ MORE

3. Statistics of Electric and Magnetic Fields at the Earth’s Bow Shock
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : The interaction between the solar wind and Earth’s magnetic field creates the Earth’s bow shock. It is an ideal region for space probes like MMS, THEMIS or Clusters to study the collisionless shock phenomenon in space plasma. READ MORE

4. One-Dimensional Velocity Distributions of Fast Ions under RF Heating Including Doppler Shift in Tokamaks
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : The goal of nuclear fusion research is to create a clean and virtually limitless energy source. In order to that, a plasma must be heated to hundreds of millions degrees Celsius. A commonly used heating mechanism is ion cyclotron resonance heating, where antennas emit radio waves into the plasma. READ MORE

5. Comparison of RF Heating in ASDEX Upgrade and ITER
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : The increased effects of global warming have been a driving force to further research and develop sustainable energy sources, such as fusion. In this study, two different fusion devices are compared in terms of ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH)of plasma. The two devices are the tokamaks ASDEX Upgrade and not yet built ITER. READ MORE
