  1. 1. Ion and ENA precipitation onto the upper atmosphere of Venus : Estimate of precipitation maps using data from a hybrid model

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

    Author : Lorenzo Obersnel; [2023]
    Keywords : Eneregetic Neutral Atoms; Venus; Ion precipitation; ENA precipitation; Atomi Neutri Energetici; Venere; precipitazione di ioni; precipitazione di atomi neutri; Energisk Neutral Atom; Venus; Utfällningen joner; Utfällningen Energisk Neutral Atom;

    Abstract : Venus does not have a strong intrinsic magnetic field as the Earth, and its magnetosphere is induced by the interaction of the solar wind with the ionosphere. The near-Venus space environment is characterized by the presence of a bow shock and of an induced magnetic boundary linked to the interplanetary magnetic field orientation. READ MORE

  3. 2. Definition and evaluation of a system for measuring local geomagnetic variations : Autonomous station for magnetic measurements

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

    Author : Viktor Olsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Local Geomagnetic Variations; Fluxgate Magnetometer; Space Weather; Solar Wind; Magnetic Measurements; Variometer; Solar Activity.; Lokala geomagnetiska variationer; Fluxgate-Magnetometer; Rymdväder; Solvinden; Magnetiska Mätningar; Variometer; Solaktivitet.;

    Abstract : Earth is under constant influence of the Sun and phenomena driven by the solar wind that may affect man-made technology. These events are summarized under the concept of space weather. This creates variations in Earth’s magnetic field and nearby space. Space weather can affect power grids, gas pipelines and also have effects on human health. READ MORE

  4. 3. Comprehensive Venus boundaries model : Empirical dependency of boundaries on the upstream conditions

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

    Author : Umberto Rollero; [2023]
    Keywords : Bow shock; Ion Composition Boundary; Venus; Upstream conditions; Solar wind.; Bow shock; Bogshock; Ion Composition Boundary; Venus; Uppströmsförhållanden; Solvind.;

    Abstract : Since Venus is an unmagnetized planet, it doesn’t interact with the solar wind in the same way as planets with an intrinsic magnetic field do. Due to its conductive ionosphere, however, it still possesses an induced magnetosphere. READ MORE

  5. 4. The connection between the bow shock at Mercury and the interplanetary magnetic field

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

    Author : Erik Sellberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Mercury bow shock; Bow shock - interplanetary magnetic field interaction; MESSENGER; Merkurius bogchock; Växelverkan bogchock interplanetära magnetfältet; MESSENGER;

    Abstract : As the solar wind reaches Mercury it interacts with the planet’s magnetic field slowing down, forming a bow shock in front of the planet and diverting the flow around it. Along with the solar wind comes the interplanetary magnetic field, an extension of the sun’s magnetic field. READ MORE

  6. 5. Identifying Fundamental Characteristics of Shock Nonstationarity using MMS Measurements : Identifying and Distinguishing Non-stationary Behaviour Through the Magnetic Field Gradient in Quasi-perpendicular Shocks

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

    Author : Hannah Wik; [2023]
    Keywords : Space; Space Plasma Physics; Collisionless Shocks; MMS; Non-stationarity; Shock Reformation; Rippling; Bow Shock; Solar Wind; Rymd; Rymdfysik; Kollisionsfria chocker; MMS; Icke-stationär; Reformation; Bogchock; Solvind;

    Abstract : Collisionless shocks are widespread phenomena in the universe, and understanding the mechanisms behind their energy dissipation, with a rare number of collisions between particles, remains a significant unresolved question. The Earth’s bow shock provides an excellent opportunity to study this phenomena in situ. READ MORE
