I maintain that this ability, which is built into the title’s adamant claim that the sky is blue, carries within it the possibility to change the present. LÄS MER
2. Reading the Sky : From Starspots to Spotting Stars
Sammanfattning : This thesis encompasses two research fields in astronomy: astrometry and astronomy education and they are discussed in two parts. These parts represent two sides of a coin; astrometry, which is about constructing 3D representations of the Universe, and AER, where for this thesis, the goal is to investigate university students’ and lecturers’ disciplinary discernment vis-à-vis the structure of the Universe and extrapolating three-dimensionality.

As most other cancer types, endometrial cancer is a complex genetic disease influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. LÄS MER
4. Imaging the high energy cosmic ray sky
Sammanfattning : The Stockholm Educational Air Shower Array (SEASA) project is deploying an array of plastic scintillator detector stations on school roofs in the Stockholm area. Signals from GPS satellites are used to time synchronise signals from the widely separated detector stations, allowing cosmic ray air showers to be identified and studied. LÄS MER
5. Cost Optimization of Volumetric Surveillance for Sky Monitoring : Towards Flying Object Detection and Positioning
Sammanfattning : Unlike surface surveillance, volumetric monitoring deals with three-dimensional target space and moving objects within it. In sky monitoring, objects fly within outdoor and often remote volumes, such as wind farms and airport runways. Therefore, multiple cameras should be implemented to monitor these volumes and analyze flying activities. LÄS MER
