  1. 1. Formation of Pebble-Pile Planetesimals and the Interior Structure of Comets

    Författare :Karl Wahlberg Jansson; Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; planets and satellites: formation; minor planets; asteroids: general; comets: general;

    Sammanfattning : Planets form in protoplanetary discs of gas, dust and ice around newborn stars. In the Solar System, not only planets are found as a result from the time of planet formation, but also remnant planetesimals in the form of asteroids, Kuiper belt objects and comets. Recent observations, e.g. LÄS MER

  2. 2. A Study of Jupiter Trojans

    Författare :Ola Karlsson; Claes-Ingvar Lagerkvist; Karri Muinonen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Jupiter Trojans; Trojan asteroids; Minor planets; Solar system;

    Sammanfattning : Jupiter Trojan asteroid dynamics have been studied for a long time but it is only within the last decades that the known population has become large enough to make other studies meaningful. In four articles I have been scratching the surface of the unknown Trojan knowledge space. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Thermal Conductivity of Materials under Conditions of Planetary Interiors

    Författare :Zuzana Konôpková; Peter Lazor; Vitali Prakapenka; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; iron; high pressures-high temperatures; thermal conductivity; diamond anvil cell; laser-heating; planetary cores; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : The presented thesis focuses on study of transport and thermoelastic properties of materials under conditions of planetary interiors by means of high-pressure experimental tools and finite element modeling, and their role in the dynamics and states of cores of terrestrial planets. Experiments in laser-heated diamond anvil cell (LHDAC) in combination with numerical simulations of heat transfer in DAC are shown to yield information on thermal conductivity of a pressurized sample.
