  1. 1. Initial Orbit Determination of Resident Space Objects From A Passive Optical Imaging System: : Application to Space Situational Awareness

    Master-uppsats, Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Författare :Jessica McKenna; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Space Situational Awareness; Space Science; Angles-Only Initial Orbit Determination;

    Sammanfattning : The probability of satellite collisions and disintegrations cluttering the near-Earth orbital environmentis ever-growing. This is especially true for the congested Low Earth Orbit (LEO) regime; once a critical density of objects is reached, a collisional cascading is projected to generate runaway growth of theorbital population.

  3. 2. Investigation of Antenna Radomes in Low Earth Orbits

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Författare :Mathias Manohar Gren; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Materials; Science; Space; Satellites; Antenna Radomes; Beyond Gravity; Coatings; Physics; Chemistry; Low Earth Orbits; Engineering; Lunds University; Materials Chemistry; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction: This master’s thesis focuses on exploring improved alternative material solutions for antenna radomes used to protect Beyond Gravity Sweden’s satellite antennas in low Earth orbits. Background: As the environment in low Earth orbit is harsh, surface materials on satellites experience high levels of atomic oxygen, ultra violet radiation, thermal-fluctuation, charged particles and micro meteoroids.

  4. 3. Simulations of the Tenuous Upper Atmospheres of Exoplanets

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Astrofysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Författare :Lucian Spitzner; [2023]
    Nyckelord :astronomy; astrophyics; exoplanets; transmission spectroscopy; magnetic fields; atmospheres; ions; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : 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. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Investigating a possible dearth of stars with zero angular momentum in the solar neighbourhood.

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Författare :Aayush Desai; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Galaxy: disk; Galaxy: fundamental parameters; Galaxy: kinematics and dynamics; Galaxy: nucleus; solar neighborhood; stars: kinematics and dynamics; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : Background. Carlberg & Innanen (1987) first proposed the idea of measuring the solar re- flex velocity (the velocity of the Sun around the galactic centre), Vg,⊙, using the momenta of the stars in the solar neighbourhood. The proposal was a consequence of the work of L. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Radiation Shielding Simulations for Small Satellites on Geostationary Transfer Orbit

    Master-uppsats, Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Författare :Anton Fetzer; [2022]
    Nyckelord :GTO; Foresail-2; CubeSat; Radiation Shielding; Geant4; Radiation Belts; GTO; Foresail-2; CubeSat; säteilysuojaus; Geant4; säteilyvyöhyke;

    Sammanfattning : The emergence of small and affordable satellites has led to rapid growth in the number of launched satellites over the past two decades. To save costs, small satellites often use mass-produced electronic components not explicitly designed for the radiation environment of space, which reduces reliability and makes them unsuitable for higher orbits.
