1. 1. Performance Optimization of Ice Sheet Simulation Models : Examining ways to speed up simulations, enabling for upscaling with more data

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för beräkningsvetenskap

   Author : Fredrika Brink; [2023]
   Keywords : performance optimization; Python libraries; ice sheet simulations; Numba; Joblib; upscaling; parallelization;

   Abstract : This study aims to examine how simulation models can be performance optimized in Python. Optimized in the sense of executing faster and enabling upscaling with more data. To meet this aim, two models simulating the Greenland ice sheet are studied. The simulation of ice sheets is an important part of glaciology and climate change research. READ MORE

3. 2. Origin of blue straggler stars in the Milky Way halo

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

   Author : Adam Brcek; [2023]
   Keywords : Blue Straggler; Galactic Halo; Spectroscopic Surveys; Binary Star Evolution; Mass Transfer; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Blue straggler stars (BSSs) are exotic stellar objects that appear to be younger than the age of the population they come from suggests. They are observed as the extension of the main sequence stars, beyond the turn-off point. READ MORE

4. 3. Analysis of stellar spectra with machine learning

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

   Author : Alvaro Segovia Otero; [2020]
   Keywords : Galactic Archaeology; machine learning; chemical abundances; FGK stars; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Researchers in the field of Galactic Archaeology have entered the era of industrial revolution. Upcoming surveys are planning on observing tens of millions of stars and high precision and accuracy must be ensured when deriving their stellar parameters and elemental abundances. READ MORE

5. 4. Galaxy evolution in extreme environments

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation

   Author : Samhitha Vadlamani; [2019]
   Keywords : Galaxy evolution; interactions; starburst; Compact galaxy groups; Stephan s Quintet; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Interactions play a crucial role in determining how galaxies evolve in terms of their morphologies and star formation histories, since the majority of the known galaxies in the nearby Universe are found to exist in groups. Compact groups of galaxies are of particular interest as they contain a small number of galaxies in dense configurations and host repeated interactions between them, enabling us to capture signatures of these interactions (e.

6. 5. A study of the stellar populations in the Kepler field

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation

   Author : Mark O Reilly; [2017]
   Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Studying the formation and evolution of galaxies is a fundamental problem in astronomy that warrants repeated investigation by astronomers. How do spiral galaxies like our own come to have its distinct spiral arms? How do stars and their properties change over time and will they continue to evolve in the same manner? To try and attempt to answer such questions we need to look to our own Galaxy the Milky Way. READ MORE
