  1. 21. Constraints on the High-Energy Gamma-Ray Spectrum of Nearby Star-Forming Galaxies

    Kandidat-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Fysikum

    Författare :Oskar Svenborn; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Gamma-ray emission; High-Energy astrophysics; Star-Forming Galaxies; Star formation; Cosmic rays; Fermi-LAT.;

    Sammanfattning : The nature of high-energy gamma-ray emission from Star-Forming Galaxies is of utmost importance for understanding both the origin of Cosmic Rays and the high-energy processes that shape galaxy formation. Observations from the gamma-ray telescope Fermi-LAT have detected gamma-ray emission from a handful of nearby Star-Forming Galaxies. LÄS MER

  2. 22. A gamma-ray study of a highly variable blazar : The Fermi-LAT analysis and the modeling of the FSRQ PKS 1510–089

    Kandidat-uppsats, Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för fysik och elektroteknik (IFE)

    Författare :Nadja Bollström; [2021]
    Nyckelord :active galactic nuclei; AGN; astrophysics; jet; PKS 1510-089; Fermi; external Compton model; gamma-rays;

    Sammanfattning : The subject of this thesis is the analysis and modeling of the active galactic nucleus PKS 1510-089. The aim is to present a thorough background of active galactic nuclei combined with the analysis and modeling of a specific active galactic nucleus. The results will then be  linked to previous research and theories about active galactic nuclei. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Looking for mono-Z signatures in Z-boson and scalar dark matter interactions

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Författare :Magnus Bertilsson; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Scalar Dark Matter; Z boson; Mono-Z signatures;

    Sammanfattning : Even though there is a multitude of observational evidence from cosmology and astrophysics, the standard model does not include a suitable dark matter candidate and therefore physics beyond the standard model is necessary. There are hypotheses of what the particle candidate could be coming from theories such as supersymmetry or extra dimensions. LÄS MER

  4. 24. A Close Look at the Transient Sky in a Neighbouring Galaxy

    Master-uppsats, Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Författare :Kiran Tikare; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Astrophysical Transients; Optical Transients; Microlensing; Variable Stars; Andromeda Galaxy; Forced Aperture Photometry; Time Domain Astronomy; Sky Survey; Zwicky Transient Facility; Machine Learning; Big Data Science;

    Sammanfattning : Study of the time variable sources and phenomena in Astrophysics provides us with important insights into the stellar evolution, galactic evolution, stellar population studies and cosmological studies such as number density of dark massive objects. Study of these sources and phenomena forms the basis of Time Domain surveys, where the telescopes while scanning the sky regularly for a period of time provides us with positional and temporal data of various Astrophysical sources and phenomena happening in the Universe.

  5. 25. Stars Eating Planets

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation

    Författare :John Wimarsson; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Earth and planetary astrophysics; planetary dynamics; planet-planet scattering; planet consumption; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : In a phase of instability during the dynamical evolution of some multiple exoplanetary systems, exchange of angular momentum and/or energy through gravitational interactions between planets will lead to alterations of their orbital properties. In some cases, planetary orbits end up crossing, which leads to close encounters between two planets. LÄS MER
