  1. 1. N-body simulations of exoplanets and their moons

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

    Author : Lydia Schollmeier; [2024]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The planet-planet interactions in a many-planet system cannot be analytically calculated. Instead, they have to be investigated by using an N-body simulation. I discuss three questions about the N-body interactions in planetary systems: The first two are on the system 55 Cnc, a system with five known planets around a K-type star. READ MORE

  3. 2. Invasive plant species in southwest Sweden: Evaluation methods of removal by empirical study and literature review

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Keywords : Invasive alien species; management; nature conservation; biodiversity;

    Abstract : Invasive alien species (IAS), are one of the five biggest threats to biodiversity worldwide. An instrument for biodiversity protection in Sweden is the establishment and management of nature reserves. The goal of nature reserves is to protect valuable nature and rare species to preserve biodiversity. READ MORE

  4. 3. Exploring procedural generation of planets : Developing a tool to create spherical worlds

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Fakulteten för teknik och samhälle (TS)

    Author : Filip Tripkovic; [2023]
    Keywords : Procedural Content Generation; PCG; Planet; World; Sphere; Terrain; Noise; Unity; Editor; Designer; Tool; Game Development;

    Abstract : If you want procedurally generated content in your games, you often have to rely on your own ability to develop the desired tools. This can be limiting for newer game developers, leading to certain types of gameplay not being considered when designing games. READ MORE

  5. 4. A cross-correlation analysis of a warm super-Neptune using transit spectroscopy

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

    Abstract : A study was made in order to deduce whether certain chemical species, namely water (H2O) and carbon monoxide (CO), are present in the atmosphere of the exoplanet WASP-107 b, which lies about 200 light-years away from Earth in the constellation Virgo. The project was carried out at Uppsala University at the Department of Physics and Astronomy. READ MORE

  6. 5. A Statistical Approach to Understand the Evolution of Exotic Butterfly Species
