  1. 1. N-body simulations of exoplanets and their moons

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

    Författare :Lydia Schollmeier; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : The planet-planet interactions in a many-planet system cannot be analytically calculated. Instead, they have to be investigated by using an N-body simulation. I discuss three questions about the N-body interactions in planetary systems: The first two are on the system 55 Cnc, a system with five known planets around a K-type star. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Warm dark matter simulations and 21cm astronomy

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

    Författare :Melker Marminge; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Warm Dark Matter; N-body Simulation; Power Spectrum; Neutral Hydrogen; Cosmology;

    Sammanfattning : The recent boom in 21cm astronomy has piqued the interest of many, especially cosmologists realizing its applications in their field. This study aims to determine if 21cm astronomy is a good tool for testing the validity of keV WDM models, as well as creating a code capable of simulating keV WDM models from an existing CDM code.

  3. 3. Can Dwarf Galaxies Tell Us How the Milky Way Formed?

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

    Författare :Þóra Karlsdóttir; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Dwarf Galaxy; Milky Way; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : Dwarf galaxies are a key component in understanding the evolution of galaxies and provide tests on the standard cosmological $\Lambda$ Cold Dark Matter model. According to the formation hierarchy, dwarf galaxies are the pieces that create all galaxies. Our current understanding of dwarf galaxies faces discrepancies between theory and observations. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Colliding Galaxies in a (Nut)Shell

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

    Författare :Jonathan Petersson; [2022]
    Nyckelord :shell galaxies; simulations; starbursts; quenching; mergers; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : Galaxy interactions and mergers are natural recurring events in the current cosmological paradigm, events that often coincide with starbursts and enhanced star formation activity. To understand why that is, one can use idealised (non-cosmological) merger simulations, which provide freedom to recreate specific tidally distorted galaxies, and analysis of the time evolution and underlying physics of the star formation activity at a high spatial resolution.

  5. 5. On The Run: How Fast Runaway Stars Can Escape From Their Home Cluster?

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation

    Författare :Anna-Maria Söderman; [2022]
    Nyckelord :star cluster; runaway stars; velocity distribution; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : Galaxies contain a wide variety of star clusters with different properties. Each cluster is a possible source of runaway stars, which can be progenitors of supernovae in other parts of the galaxy than their home cluster. Considering runaway stars in galaxy simulations has shown to increase the galactic feedback. LÄS MER
