1. Ageing process analysis of solar panels in graveyard geostationaryorbit for reusability potential
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknikAbstract : The constant growth of space debris and the associated risks force the space community to find solutions to mitigate them. Today the most advanced solutions to dispose of satellites and rocket stages after the end of mission consists of moving them either into a graveyard orbit or towards an atmospheric re-entry ending in the demise of both spacecraft and its materials.

4. Experimental studies of radiation damage in uranium nitride
University essay from KTH/FysikAbstract : The effect of proton (H+) irradiation on uranium mononitride (UN) and UN compositefuel with 10 at.% ZrN (UN10at%ZrN) was examined. Protons of 2 MeV with fluences of1E17, 1E18, 1E19 and 1E20 ions/cm2 were accelerated towards the fabricated samples in orderto investigate the evolution of the micro-structure. READ MORE

5. Development and Evaluation of an Enzyme-Based Sunscreen
University essay from Lunds universitet/Bioteknik; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master)Abstract : Ultraviolet radiation (UVR), specifically of UVA and UVB, has been associated with the development of both photoaging and photo-carcinogenesis, potentially leading to cancer. The use of sun protection in the form of UV filters is known to minimize these damages. READ MORE
