  1. 1. Theory and Applications of Tri-Axial Electromagnetic Field Measurements

    Författare :Roger Karlsson; Bo Thid'e; Tobia Carozzi; Gudmund Wannberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Space and plasma physics; polarisation; polarization; Stokes parameters; antenna; radio waves; whistler wave; SEE; direction-finding; statistics; Poynting theorem; Rymd- och plasmafysik; Space physics; Rymdfysik;

    Sammanfattning : Polarisation, which was first studied in optics, is a fundamental property of all electromagnetic fields. A convenient way to describe the polarisation of two dimensional electromagnetic fields is given by the Stokes parameters. This thesis deals with different aspects of wave polarisation and electromagnetic field measurements. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Stability and Statistical Analysis of Transient Waves in Fusion Plasmas

    Författare :Gergö Pokol; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; short-time Fourier transform; transient MHD mode; wavelet transform; quasi-linear diffusion; runaway electron; transient transport; stellarator; tokamak disruption; fusion plasma physics; whistler wave;

    Sammanfattning : Thermonuclear energy generation in magnetically confined plasmas offers an appealing energy source for coming generations. Some of the still unsolved problems in fusion plasma physics involve plasma transport and stability of plasma waves. Two such problems are addressed in the present thesis. LÄS MER

  4. 3. 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.

  5. 4. VLF Chorus Activity Associated with Substorm Particle Injections

    Författare :Andrew Collier; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :space physics; magnetosphere; VLF waves; substorms;

    Sammanfattning : The Substorm Chorus Event (SCE) is a Very Low Frequency(VLF) radio phenomenon observed on the ground after the onsetof the substorm expansion phase. It consists of a band of VLFchorus emissions with rising upper and lower cutofffrequencies. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Dispersive and polarimetric properties of waves in space plasma

    Författare :Jan Bergman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Astronomy; Astronomi; Astronomy and astrophysics; Astronomi och astrofysik; Space Physics; rymdfysik;

    Sammanfattning : Various aspects regarding dispersive and polarimetric properties of waves in space plasma are discussed from a theoretical viewpoint, which is extended to include numerical as well as experimental studies. From a more technical viewpoint, two scientific instruments are described. LÄS MER
