16. A study of the gamma-ray emission from the blazar S50716+71 using the Fermi-LAT telescope
Kandidat-uppsats, Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för fysik och elektroteknik (IFE)Sammanfattning : This thesis sums up a bachelor project in which gamma-ray emission from an extra-galactic source (S50716+71) is studied using data collected by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT). The emission consists of 12,5 years of data (April 2008 to February 2020) in the energy range 100 MeV - 300 GeV. LÄS MER
17. Extension of the Mission Timeline Simulator with Modern Optimization Capabilities
Master-uppsats, Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknikSammanfattning : The Advanced Telescope for High-Energy Astrophysics (ATHENA) has been selected as the second large (L-class) mission designed to address the Cosmic Vision science theme “The Hot and Energetic Universe”. The European Space Agency has produced a Mission Observation Plan which contains objectives and constraints of the mission. LÄS MER
18. Simulating and Testing the Polarimetric Response of the X-ray Polarimetry Telescope XL-Calibur
Master-uppsats, KTH/FysikSammanfattning : X-ray polarimetry, the study of the polarisation of X-ray light, is a powerful and rapidly developing tool for astrophysics, which promises to help answer outstanding questions about the physics of extreme objects such as pulsars, X-ray binaries and active galactic nuclei. The balloon-borne telescope XL-Calibur will be the first instrument to study the polarisation of hard X-rays (with energies between 10 and 100 keV) in detail, correlating with the soft X-ray observations of IXPE to provide further tests of polarisation-dependent x-ray emission models in extreme objects.

19. Assessment of Modern Statistical Modelling Methods for the Association of High-Energy Neutrinos to Astrophysical Sources
Master-uppsats, KTH/Matematisk statistikSammanfattning : The search for the sources of astrophysical neutrinos is a central open question in particle astrophysics. Thanks to substantial experimental efforts, we now have large-scale neutrino detectors in the oceans and polar ice. LÄS MER
20. Design of a variable focal length optics for a SWIR Earth observation camera
Master-uppsats, Luleå tekniska universitet/RymdteknikSammanfattning : This thesis consists of a preliminary design study of a variable focal length optics for a SWIREarth observation camera which is planned to be placed inside a 6U Cubesat. After thesuccess of DRAGO instrument consisting on a SWIR camera onboard a Cubesat, which hasbeen recently launched (January 2021), the Institute of Astrophysics of the Canary Islands(IAC) began this project with the intention of adding zoom optics to SWIR space imagingsystems.
