    EISCAT_3D is a multi-static phased array radar system for observations of the upper polar atmosphere and near-Earth space. It measures the incoherent scatter of electromagnetic waves by free electrons in the upper atmosphere, i.e. the ionosphere. The electrons couple to ions and charged dust through plasma oscillations and to the neutral particles through collisions. These couplings determine...

    When you hit a drum, it vibrates and emits a sound. When you hit a black hole, it also vibrates and emits gravitational waves. Hitting black holes is not very easy, but fortunately nature does it for us with black hole collisions. Remarkably, general relativity predicts that the vibration of a black hole is rather simple. The spectrum of vibrational modes depends only on the mass and angular...

    Intermittent fluctuations with large amplitudes compared to the background level can arise in far-from equilibrium and turbulent systems as well as due to sudden, large-amplitude forcing [1, 2]. Conditional averaging has been a much-used tool for finding amplitudes of intermittent events and the waiting time between them [2]. However, conditional averaging requires both significant amplitude...

    We aim to estimate the Stochastic Gravitational Wave Background (SGWB), generated by a given stellar origin binary black hole (SOBBH) population, on the LISA strain.
    We start by simulating a SOBBH catalogue that will simulate as close as possible what the LISA detector would be able to observe at the time of launch, in order to do so, we implement the probability density functions (PDFs) of...

    In order to estimate the global temperature response and climate sensitivity to radiative forcing, volcanic activity is an important testbed. This work uses a non-parametric method for estimating the temperature response due to volcanic forcing from a simulation of the NorESM model [1]. In addition, this response will be convolved with reconstructed volcanic forcing and compared to temperature...

    The information about the electron population emanating from a helicon source plasma is important in order to understand the formation of the current-free double layer (CFDL) between the source and the downstream region of a helicon plasma. The electrons need an energy higher than the potential drop across the CFDL to escape downstream from the source, and at these energies the signal of a...

    One of the next big steps in cosmology is the detection of inflationary gravitational waves from the Big Bang. These waves were created from the exponential expansion of the universe, just parts of a nanosecond after its birth. Signals from these ripples in space-time are extremely weak and have proved very hard to detect. One future telescope aiming to detect this signal is the JAXA’s...

    UiO has been operating all-sky imagers in the arctic regions for over 20 years. Between October and March images are taken at two different wavelengths every 5-30 seconds, resulting in a collection of almost 8 million images taken in Ny-Ålesund and Longyearbyen since 2006. These images are supplemented by magnetometer measurements, information about GNSS-signal quality of satellites in the...

    Black Holes are possibly the most enigmatic objects in our Universe.

Nevertheless, they remain active playgrounds for strong gravity and quantum effects, where novel aspects of the elusive...

    Vanadium spinel oxides with formula $AV_2O_4$ (A = Fe, Co, etc.) have attracted much interest since they exhibit various intriguing physical properties, particularly in studying the role of orbital degrees of freedom in frustrated antiferromagnets [1,2]. However, very little attention has been paid to vanadium inverse spinel oxides $A_2VO_4$(A = Fe or Co). We report investigations on one of...

    Studying the production of charmonium states in hadronic collisions may improve our understanding of the theory describing the strong interaction, known as quantum chromodynamics (QCD). The formation of heavy charm quark pairs takes place during the initial hard partonic scattering and can therefore be calculated using perturbative QCD, while the evolution into a colorless bound state is a...

    The auroral electrojet is traditionally measured remotely with magnetometers on ground or in low Earth orbit (LEO). The sparse spatial coverage of measurements, combined with a vertical distance (~100 km to ground and typically >300 km to LEO satellites) means that smaller scale sizes cannot be detected. Because of this, our understanding of the spatiotemporal characteristics of the...

    Inclusions of metallocenes into host frameworks of urea and thiourea have been studied widely for years due to their interesting structure and elusive arrangement of guest molecules.

    In hadronic collisions, heavy-flavour quarks (beauty and charm) are produced in hard-scattering processes with large momentum transfer. The production of hadrons containing beauty quarks provides a very important test of perturbative QCD calculations in pp collisions. Measurement of beauty-hadron production in heavy-ion collisions is a unique tool to investigate the properties of the...

    $SrTm_2O_4$ belongs to the family of $SrLn_2O_4$ (Ln - rare-earth ions), where many unconventional magnetic phenomena have been discovered [1]. However, $SrTm_2O_4$ does not show either long-range or short-range order down to 65mK[2].On the other hand, our muon spin rotation/relaxation (µSR) results show signs of spontaneous magnetic ordering even at near room temperatures with no sign of...

    Using incoherent scatter radar (ISR) to determine the neutral wind velocity in the ionosphere has been done for nearly 50 years. The method for finding the velocity of the neutral wind uses the ion velocity which is one of the parameters that the ISRs measure. The ion velocity is connected to the neutral wind velocity through collisions, and to electrical field through the Lorentz force where...

    At the ALICE experiment at CERN, quark-gluon plasma (QGP) is produced in the early stages of ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions. Prior to the formation of QGP, heavy quarks and antiquarks (charm and beauty) are created in the initial hard scattering of the partons of the heavy ions. They subsequently move through the QGP, their numbers remaining conserved while they interact with the hot...

    The boundary of magnetically confined plasmas is in a strongly fluctuating state due to the propagation of large amplitude coherent structures.

This model can describe experimental techniques such...

    Mesospheric bores are non-linear solitary type internal waves observed in the 80 – 100 km region of Earth atmosphere, the upper mesosphere.

    Jet interactions in a hot QCD medium created in heavy-ion collisions are conventionally assessed by measuring the modification of the distributions of jet observables with respect to the proton-proton baseline.

    We recently proposed a novel thermal production mechanism for dark matter based on the idea that dark matter particles $\chi$ can transform (`infect') heat bath particles $\psi$: $\chi \psi \rightarrow \chi \chi$. For a small initial abundance of $\chi$ this induces an exponential growth in the dark matter number density, closely resembling the epidemic curves of a spreading pathogen after an...
