  1. 1. Improving the understanding of photoelectron currents on Solar Orbiter : Utilizing theory and empirical measurements

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutet för rymdfysik, Uppsalaavdelningen

    Författare :Melker Marminge; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Solar Orbiter; Photoelectric Currents; Photoelectric Effect; Thermal Bending; Outgassing; Thermionic Emission; Numerical Approximation; Physical Modeling;

    Sammanfattning : Spacecraft experience electric currents on conductive materials exposed to sunlight, which introduces noise in scientific data. These currents are mainly due to the photoelectric effect and should therefore be proportional to the inverse square heliocentric distance. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : The COmpton Spectrometer and Imager (COSI) is a space telescope that aims to study the soft gamma regime (0.2-5 MeV), capable of performing spectroscopy, imaging and polarimetry of cosmic gamma sources. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Event-based High Resolution X-ray Imaging using Compton Coincidence Detection

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Medicinsk avbildning

    Författare :Eva Bergström; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Photon counting CT; Compton scattering; Compton kinematics; coincidence detection; χ2 test; Fotonräknande CT; Compton-spridning; Compton-kinematik; sammanfallsdetektering; χ2 -test;

    Sammanfattning : Research on photon counting detectors (PCDs) is focused on semiconductor materials, and silicon is a strong candidate to use in PCDs for photon counting computer tomography (CT). In a silicon detector, a significant portion of the counts is due to Compton scattering events. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Towards the control of photo-ionization with electron wave-packet interferences

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Författare :Andreas Stokkeland; [2020]
    Nyckelord :XUV attosecond pulses; photoelectron distribution; photoionization; phase shift; electron wave-packet interference; infrared field; IR-field; frequency components; Fourier transform; XUV photons; frequency domain; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : In this work the photoelectric effect is explored through simulations of the phase shift that an IR-field can induce into an electron wave packet and the photoelectron distribution over frequency components that is produced in the photoionization of an atom with a attosecond pulses made of XUV photons. The IR-field is sent along two attosecond pulses made of XUV photons towards a 3D momentum spectrometer were there is a gas that can be photoionized and the photoelectrons can be measured. LÄS MER
