  1. 1. Resolving the smallest scale of star formation at Cosmic Noon with JWST : Star-forming clumps in a galaxy lensed by Abell 2744

    Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för astronomi

    Författare :Annalena Pless; [2023]
    Nyckelord :star formation; star-forming clumps; galaxy evolution;

    Sammanfattning : At higher redshift galaxies exhibit increasingly irregular and clumpy morphologies, withstar-forming clumps dominating the FUV output of their host galaxies thus being inti-mately related to star formation and the formation and evolution of galaxies. This workexamines star-forming clumps in a remarkable, young spiral galaxy at Cosmic Noon witha redshift ofz= 2. LÄS MER

  2. 2. James Webb Space Telescope Observations of Jupiter’s Moon Europa

    Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Författare :Aulon Nura; Isac Engblom; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The creation of life has puzzled humanity since the dawn of time. With the launch of thecutting-edge James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) at last year's closing, the next step in humanity'ssearch for life has been taken. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Deriving Spectral Maps from JWST Data : A Study of Enceladus’ Plumes

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Författare :Stephan Weissenböck; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Data Analysis; Enceladus; Plumes; Atmosphere; JWST; NIRSpec; IFU; Infrared spectroscopy; Dataanalys; Enceladus; plym; atmosfär; JWST; NIRSpec; IFU; infraröd spektroskopi;

    Sammanfattning : This study investigates the presence of water vapor plumes in the region south of Enceladus, a moon in the Saturnian system, through observations conducted by the James Webb Space Telescope. Enceladus is believed to harbor a subsurface ocean or localized water reservoir that gives rise to water geysers, expelling vapor into its tenuous atmosphere and outer space. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Using the James Webb Space Telescope to Find Carbon Dioxide on Ganymede

    Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Författare :Olof Helgesson; Oscar Lundin; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this bachelor's thesis is to search for CO₂ on Ganymede by studyingobservations taken by the James Webb Space Telescope and in doing so, create aprocessing pipeline for JWST data. The data is collected by JWST's Near InfraredSpectrograph instrument which is used for spectroscopy in the near infrared spectrum. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Finding the Seeds of Supermassive Black Holes: The Direct Collapse Black Hole Scenario

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

    Författare :Weihui Li; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The origin of supermassive black holes (SMBHs,∼ 10^9M⊙) in the first billion years of cosmic history remains a mystery. Direct Collapse Black Holes (DCBHs,∼ 10^4M⊙) are considered one of the most promising hypotheses for the progenitor of SMBHs, as they are believed to provide a favorable starting point as massive seeds for SMBH formation.
