2. Effects of solar parabolic- trough collectors in small- scale district heating systems
University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggd miljö och energiteknik (BET)Abstract : Reducing carbon emissions in our societies requires a massive shift towards renewables. In Sweden, biomass is the dominant source for the district heat production, but growing demand for biomass in other sectors may cause pressure on it. READ MORE

3. Understanding Rt using two-particle correlations by simulating proton-proton collisions in a Monte-Carlo model
University essay from Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenAbstract : The observable Rt is investigated in the Monte Carlo Model Pythia in order to better understand results from experimental data obtained in the ALICE detector at CERN. The purpose is to reproduce the experiment in a simulation and use the features proposed by Pythia to dig into the unexpected outcomes. READ MORE

4. Sunshade Demonstrator Spacecraft Earth Sphere of Influence Escape Using a Propellant-free AOCS
University essay from KTH/RymdteknikAbstract : This thesis provides insights to what is peculiar about a solar sail attitude and orbit control system and provides the assessment, in the form of a feasibility study, of the effectiveness of sail tip vanes as a control hardware to escape the Earth sphere of influence. The demonstrator aims to prove the technology for the Sunshade project, a constellation of solar sails located at the Lagrangian point L1 to obscure part of the solar radiation directed towards earth.

5. Full Physics Orbital Simulation around Comet Didymos for CubeSat MissionAPEX on HERA, ESA
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomiAbstract : We investigate the dynamic environment of the double asteroid system (65803) Didymoswith its satellite Didymos B for stable trajectories of more than 30 days for a model cubesatcalled APEX, foreseen to visit Didymos with the HERA mission, to be launched in 2023.We find semi-stable orbits with lifetimes up to 15 days under the influence of solar radiationpressure.
