  1. 1. Calibration and preparation of the data analysis of the DORN experiment on board the Chang'E 6 lunar mission.

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Íñigo de Loyola Chacartegui Rojo; [2023]
    Keywords : Radon; lunar mission; alpha spectrometry; space instrumentation; performance testing and validation;

    Abstract : As part of the first agreement between the French (CNES) and the Chinese (CNSA) space agencies in terms of space exploration, the DORN instrument will fly on board the Chinese Chang'E 6 mission in 2024. It aims to measure the amount of Radon escaping from the lunar soil to better understand what governs the concentration of this noble gas which contributes to the endogenous origin of the lunar exosphere.

  5. 4. Generating Perturbative Solutions for Slowly Rotating Perfect Fluids Using the Hartle Scheme

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Elin Johansson; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this thesis, we study slowly rotating relativistic stars by modeling them as perfect fluids. The Hartle formalism is used to perturb a spherically symmetric static solution into slow rotation and the corresponding field equations to second order are presented. READ MORE

  6. 5. Design, production, and validation of a vacuum arc thruster for in-orbit proximity operations

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Cornelis Peter Hiemstra; [2022]
    Keywords : vacuum arc thruster; propulsion; thrust measurement;

    Abstract : Vacuum arc thrusters offer a relatively simple and cheap form of satellite propulsion, especially suitable for nanosatellites such as CubeSats or even smaller. This thesis focuses on vacuum arc thruster design considering the thruster’s manufacturing, assembly and integration into the spacecraft, and proposes a new anode geometry easing thruster production.
