Solar Wind Protons in the Diamagnetic Cavity at Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko

Lucie Anemone Scharré

The plasma environment at a comet can be divided into different regions with distinct plasma characteristics. Two such regions are the solar wind ion cavity, which refers to the part of the outer coma that does not contain any solar wind ions anymore; and ...

A Fast Ion Loss Detector for the TCV Tokamak

Lorenzo Stipani

A Fast Ion Loss Detector (FILD) was designed, assembled, installed and commissioned for TCV. This is a radially positionable, scintillator based detector that provides information on the 2D fast-ion velocity space lost at the probe's location. The collecte ...

CubeSat quantum communications mission

Edoardo Charbon

Quantum communication is a prime space technology application and offers near-term possibilities for long-distance quantum key distribution (QKD) and experimental tests of quantum entanglement. However, there exists considerable developmental risks and sub ...

Pattern Generation for Rough Terrain Locomotion with Quadrupedal Robots : Morphed Oscillators & Sensory Feedback

Mostafa Ajallooeian

Animals are able to locomote on rough terrain without any apparent difficulty, but this does not mean that the locomotor system is simple. The locomotor system is actually a complex multi-input multi-output closed-loop control system. This thesis is dedica ...

Superdiffusive transport in laboratory and astrophysical plasmas

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Paolo Ricci, Kyle Gustafson, Alexandre Dominique Bovet

In the last few years it has been demonstrated, both by data analysis and by numerical simulations, that the transport of energetic particles in the presence of magnetic turbulence can be superdiffusive rather than normal diffusive (Gaussian). The term ‘su ...

Microfabricated Electrospray Thrusters for a Modular Spacecraft Propulsion System

Simon Dandavino

With the growing capabilities of miniature components and systems, scientific and exploration missions making use of small spacecraft (

On the estimation of arterial route travel time distribution with Markov chains

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Mohsen Ramezani Ghalenoei

Recent advances in the probe vehicle deployment offer an innovative prospect for research in arterial travel time estimation. Specifically, we focus on the estimation of probability distribution of arterial route travel time, which contains more informatio ...

On the 3D Reconstruction of Coronal Mass Ejections using Coronagraph Data

Coronal Mass ejections (CMEs) are enormous eruptions of magnetized plasma expelled from the Sun into the interplanetary space, over the course of hours to days. They can create major disturbances in the interplanetary medium and trigger severe magnetic sto ...
