  1. 1. Investigation of Antenna Radomes in Low Earth Orbits

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Mathias Manohar Gren; [2023]
    Keywords : Materials; Science; Space; Satellites; Antenna Radomes; Beyond Gravity; Coatings; Physics; Chemistry; Low Earth Orbits; Engineering; Lunds University; Materials Chemistry; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Introduction: This master’s thesis focuses on exploring improved alternative material solutions for antenna radomes used to protect Beyond Gravity Sweden’s satellite antennas in low Earth orbits. Background: As the environment in low Earth orbit is harsh, surface materials on satellites experience high levels of atomic oxygen, ultra violet radiation, thermal-fluctuation, charged particles and micro meteoroids.

  2. 2. Cromwell on the Moon; Or, Printing, Popularity, Persuasion : An Account of Text Reuse Patterns and Eighteenth-Century Utopian Thinking

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för ABM

    Author : Kira Sophie Hinderks; [2023]
    Keywords : Utopias; Text Reuse; Intellectual History; Eighteenth Century; ECCO; Print Culture;

    Abstract : This thesis approaches eighteenth-century utopian thinking from a new methodological angle, namely by utilising the Reception Reader, an open-access text reuse detection tool, to study a sub-corpus of 39 utopian works available in ECCO (Eighteenth Century Collections Online), the largest collection of digitised eighteenth-century texts printed in the British and Irish Isles. As the first study of text reuse in utopian thinking, this thesis shows that text reuse detection is a viable method for gaining new insights into eighteenth-century utopian thinking. READ MORE

  3. 3. Deriving Spectral Maps from JWST Data : A Study of Enceladus’ Plumes

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

    Author : Stephan Weissenböck; [2023]
    Keywords : Data Analysis; Enceladus; Plumes; Atmosphere; JWST; NIRSpec; IFU; Infrared spectroscopy; Dataanalys; Enceladus; plym; atmosfär; JWST; NIRSpec; IFU; infraröd spektroskopi;

    Abstract : This study investigates the presence of water vapor plumes in the region south of Enceladus, a moon in the Saturnian system, through observations conducted by the James Webb Space Telescope. Enceladus is believed to harbor a subsurface ocean or localized water reservoir that gives rise to water geysers, expelling vapor into its tenuous atmosphere and outer space. READ MORE

  4. 4. Forming wide-orbit planets via pebble accretion

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

    Author : Nerea Gurrutxaga; [2023]
    Keywords : Planet Formation; Pebble Accretion; Protoplanetary Disk; Wide-Orbit Planet; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The possibility that detected substructures in protoplanetary disks, such as gaps, rings and cavities, are created by distant protoplanets has prompted an inquiry into the mechanism responsible for their formation. These wide-orbit young bodies are likely to form relatively rapidly in the outer regions of circumstellar disks. READ MORE

  5. 5. Aktivitetsmönster och boskapspredation hos lejon (Panthera leo) i förhållande till olika miljöfaktorer

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and Health

    Author : Elvira Karjel; [2022]
    Keywords : lejon; Panthera leo; aktivitetdygnsrytm; månfas; molntäcke; nederbörd; regn; jaktlycka; boskap; nötkreatur; predation;

    Abstract : The lion is one of few large predators that have suffered terrible population losses over the past two decades. As a result of this lions are now considered vulnerable on the IUCN Redlist, and on their way towards becoming endangered. The estimated number of individuals is approximately 32 000 today, and the majority are found in Africa. READ MORE
