1. Development of a model for ionospheric instabilities in the equatorial region
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/RymdteknikAbstract : This work is part of a bigger project on analyzing the ionospheric dynamics in the equatorial region using simulations. The main objective of this study is to determine and characterize the parameters needed to trigger instabilities and thus the formation of plasma bubbles. READ MORE

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)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

3. Investigation of inductive electric fields in Earth’s magnetotail using Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) multipoint measurements
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : The mutual interaction between the solar wind and the geomagnetic field generates the magnetosphere. The magnetosphere is characterized by many large-scale perturbations, such as substorms, which are responsible for variations in the magnetic field. READ MORE

4. Automatic Characterisation of Magnetic Indices with Artificial Intelligence
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknikAbstract : The complex interactions between the Sun and Earth are referred to as Space Weather. Key parameters include magnetic indices which quantitatively describe geomagnetic activity by determining a baseline that removes the background magnetic field and allows quantification of the remaining activity during geomagnetic events.

5. A detailed study of auroral fragments
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi; Uppsala universitet/Institutet för rymdfysik, UppsalaavdelningenAbstract : Aurora occurs in various shapes, one of which is the hitherto unreported phenomenon of auroral fragments. For three periods of occurrence of these fragments their properties were studied in detail during this master’s thesis, using mainly ground-based instrumentation located near Longyearbyen on Svalbard, Norway.
