  1. 16. A detailed study of auroral fragments

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi; Uppsala universitet/Institutet för rymdfysik, Uppsalaavdelningen

    Author : Joshua Dreyer; [2019]
    Keywords : aurora; fragments; Svalbard; all-sky camera; MSP; ASK; EISCAT;

    Abstract : 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.

  2. 17. Online capacity estimation of Li-ion batteries with Errors-In-Variables model

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

    Author : Nikolaos Karavalakis; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Sustainable transport has lead to recent technological advancements forelectric vehicles. A weak component of the electric vehicles is the energystorage units and their efficient operation. A battery management systemis usually employed to ensure the safe and efficient operation of the batteries. READ MORE

  3. 18. Development and simulation of an active target detector with GEM foil readout

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

    Author : Elisabeth Rickert; [2017]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : At CERN, radioactive ion beams with energies of up to 10 MeV/u can be pro- duced by a newly commissioned post-accelerator, HIE-ISOLDE, which expands the possibilities for nuclear reaction studies. To investigate the collision properties of the ion beam with a target, an active gas–target detector is under development by the Reactions Group at the Nuclear Physics Division in Lund. READ MORE

  4. 19. Positive-Ion/Negative-Ion Coincidence (PINICO) Experiments on Water

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/MAX IV-laboratoriet

    Author : Bruno Moog; [2017]
    Keywords : PINICO; TOF; time-of-flight; time of flight; spectroscopy; coincidence spectroscopy; water; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : A new setup for versatile ion time-of-flight coincidence spectroscopy was built using a pre-existing negative ion time-of-flight spectrometer aligned with a short extension that may be used to detect photons, Auger electrons or positive ions. The extension was designed to be short to improve detection of photons, as they do not have a preferred direction for their emission, and high-momentum particles, which would miss the detector if it were placed farther from the interaction region.

  5. 20. Investigation of the electron density close to the rings of Saturn and Prediction of the F-ring plasma characteristics

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi; Uppsala universitet/Institutet för rymdfysik, Uppsalaavdelningen

    Author : George Xystouris; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Saturn has the second strongest magnetic field among the planets of the solar system, creating the second biggest magnetosphere, after Jupiter. The magnetosphere is similar to Earth's, as both of them are created by a dipole magnetic field, produced by a planetary dynamo. Despite the similarities, they have some major differences. READ MORE
