  1. 1. Analysis of Atmospheric Muon Bundles with IceCube

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Author : Anna Selina Neyer; [2024]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This work is a preliminary study of the background of a search for dark, long-lived particles in the IceCube detector. The high flux of atmospheric muons in IceCube is considered background to the detector's primary science goal, which is to detect astrophysical neutrinos through the emission of Cherenkov radiation.

    Keywords : astronomy; astrophyics; exoplanets; transmission spectroscopy; magnetic fields; atmospheres; ions; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Over the last decade, the interest in research on extraterrestrial planets has expanded dramatically. With the number of confirmed exoplanets having increased tenfold over the last ten years, we now know that many different types of exoplanets exist. READ MORE

  3. 3. An emprical analysis of the effect of emergency lights on the speed of road assistance vehicles on highways in Stockholm

    University essay from KTH/Geoinformatik

    Author : Leonard Hökby; [2021]
    Keywords : Traffic; Traffic incident management; TIM; Highway; Emergency lights; Road Availability; Road assistance; Vägassistans; Blåljus; Stockholm; Södra Länken; Essingeleden; E4;

    Abstract : Any situation that causes traffic to stop or slow down creates cost for society, both in terms of lost time for the road users and increased CO2 emissions. Trafik Stockholm, a traffic management centre for Stockholm collectively run by STA, Stockholm city and Nacka municipality therefore have the responsibility to facilitate the removal of such situations.

    Abstract : Wave energy is a promising renewable resource with a higher energy density than both wind and solar. Waves can travel thousands of kilometers with minimal energy loss, making them more reliable than the previously mentioned alternatives. A device that utilizes wave energy to generate electricity is calleda Wave Energy Converter. READ MORE

  5. 5. Link flow destination distribution estimation based on observed travel times for traffic prediction during incidents

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Kommunikations- och transportsystem; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Anna Danielsson; Gabriella Gustafsson; [2020]
    Keywords : incident management; logit model; route choice estimation; route set generation; traffic flow modelling; traffic prediction;

    Abstract : In a lot of big cities, the traffic network is overloaded, with congestion and unnecessary emissions as consequence. Therefore, different traffic control methods are useful, especially in case of an incident. READ MORE
