  1. 1. The importance of waves in space plasmas : Examples from the auroral region and the magnetopause

    Författare :Gabriella Stenberg; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Space and plasma physics; Plasma waves; magnetospheric physics; magnetopause; auroral region; wave distribution function; space exploration; reconnection; current tubes; Rymd- och plasmafysik; Space physics; Rymdfysik; rymdfysik; Space Physics;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis discusses the reasons for space exploration and space science. Space plasma physics is identified as an essential building block to understand the space environment and it is argued that observation and analysis of space plasma waves is an important approach.Space plasma waves are the main actors in many important processes.

  3. 2. Low-energy ions around comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko

    Författare :Sofia Bergman; Gabriella Stenberg Wieser; Martin Wieser; Gert Brodin; Stein Håland; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Low-energy ions; spacecraft charging; comets; 67P Churyumov-Gerasimenko; Rosetta; RPC-ICA; SPIS; diamagnetic cavity; field of view; plasma; space plasma physics; rymd- och plasmafysik; Space and Plasma Physics;

    Sammanfattning : Low-energy ions play important roles in the formation of the plasma environment around a comet. Reliable ways of measuring these ions are therefore of high importance to fully understand the processes and dynamics of this environment. Unfortunately, low-energy ions are infamously difficult to detect. LÄS MER

  4. 3. The effect of spacecraft charging on low-energy ion measurements around comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko

    Författare :Sofia Bergman; Gabriella Stenberg Wieser; Martin Wieser; Gert Brodin; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Spacecraft charging; low-energy ions; space physics; plasma physics; comet; Rosetta; SPIS; rymd- och plasmafysik; Space and Plasma Physics;

    Sammanfattning : A spacecraft in space interacts with the surrounding environment and aqcuires an electrostatic potential. Charged particles are constantly bombarding the surface of the spacecraft, and at the same time solar EUV radiation induces photoemission, causing electrons to be emitted from the surface. LÄS MER
