  1. 21. Energy Conversion and Particle Acceleration at Turbulent Plasma Jet Fronts

    Författare :Louis Richard; Yuri V. Khotyaintsev; Tomas Karlsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : High speed plasma flows (jets) are ubiquitous phenomena in the universe. For example, they carry energy from the most powerful sources (e.g active galactic nucleï AGN) to the medium at rest surrounding them. LÄS MER

  2. 22. New Perspectives on Solar Wind-Magnetosphere Coupling

    Författare :Torbjörn Sundberg; Lars Blomberg; Judy Cumnock; Masaki Fujimoto; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; magnetosphere; ionosphere; mercury; kelvin-helmholtz; Electrophysics; Elektrofysik;

    Sammanfattning : The streaming plasma in the solar wind is a never ending source of energy, plasma, and momentum for planetary magnetospheres, and it continuously drives large-scale plasma convection systems in our magnetosphere and over our polar ionosphere. This coupling between the solar wind and the magnetosphere is primarily explained by two different processes: magnetic reconnection at high latitudes, which interconnects the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) with the planetary dipole field, and low-latitude dynamos such as viscous interaction, where the streaming plasma in the solar wind may trigger waves and instabilities at the flanks of the magnetosphere, and thereby allow solar wind plasma to enter into the system.

  3. 23. High-speed jets and related phenomena at Earth's bow shock and magnetosheath

    Författare :Savvas Raptis; Tomas Karlsson; Drew Turner; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; magnetosheath; solar wind; bow shock; plasma; collisionless shock; Physics; Fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Magnetosheath high-speed jets are transient and localized dynamic pressure enhancements downstream of Earth’s bow shock. Their formation has been associated with several mechanisms, including solar transient events and the dynamical evolution of the bow shock. LÄS MER

  4. 24. On CNS injury and olfactory ensheathing cell engraftment strategies

    Författare :I-Hui Lee; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The intrinsic regenerative capacity of the adult mammalian central nervous system (CNS) is limited because of lack of nerve-growth stimulatory factors and presence of an insurmountable molecular environment for injured axons. This thesis aims to study neural regeneration following adult CNS injury, using rodent models of spinal cord injury, dorsal root avulsion, and Parkinson s disease. LÄS MER
