  • Meteor studies in the framework of the JEM-EUSO program

    • We summarize the state of the art of a program of UV observations from space of meteor phenomena, a secondary objective of the JEM-EUSO international collaboration. Our preliminary analysis indicates that JEM-EUSO, taking advantage of its large FOV and good sensitivity, should be able to detect meteors down to absolute magnitude close to 7. This means that JEM-EUSO should be able to record a statistically significant flux of meteors, including both sporadic ones, and events produced by different meteor streams. Being unaffected by adverse weather conditions, JEM-EUSO can also be a very important facility for the detection of bright meteors and fireballs, as these events can be detected even in conditions of very high sky background. In the case of bright events, moreover, exhibiting some persistence of the meteor train, preliminary simulations show that it should be possible to exploit the motion of the ISS itself and derive at least a rough 3D reconstruction of the meteor trajectory. Moreover, the observing strategy developed to detect meteors may also be applied to the detection of nuclearites, exotic particles whose existence has been suggested by some theoretical investigations. Nuclearites are expected to move at higher velocities than meteoroids, and to exhibit a wider range of possible trajectories, including particles moving upward after crossing the Earth. Some pilot studies, including the approved Mini-EUSO mission, a precursor of JEM-EUSO, are currently operational or in preparation. We are doing simulations to assess the performance of Mini-EUSO for meteor studies, while a few meteor events have been already detected using the ground-based facility EUSO-TA.

  • First observations of speed of light tracks by a fluorescence detector looking down on the atmosphere
  • 2018
  • Ingår i: Journal of Instrumentation. - : IOP PUBLISHING LTD. - 1748-0221 .- 1748-0221. ; 13

    • EUSO-Balloon is a pathfinder mission for the Extreme Universe Space Observatory onboard the Japanese Experiment Module (JEM-EUSO). It was launched on the moonless night of the 25(th) of August 2014 from Timmins, Canada. The flight ended successfully after maintaining the target altitude of 38 km for five hours. One part of the mission was a 2.5 hour underflight using a helicopter equipped with three UV light sources (LED, xenon flasher and laser) to perform an inflight calibration and examine the detectors capability to measure tracks moving at the speed of light. We describe the helicopter laser system and details of the underflight as well as how the laser tracks were recorded and found in the data. These are the first recorded laser tracks measured from a fluorescence detector looking down on the atmosphere. Finally, we present a first reconstruction of the direction of the laser tracks relative to the detector.

  • Overview of plasma rotation studies on the TCABR tokamak
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion. - : IOP Publishing. - 0741-3335 .- 1361-6587. ; 63:7
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • An overview of intrinsic plasma rotation studies in Ohmic L-mode discharges carried out in the Tokamak Chauffage Alfven Bresilien (TCABR) tokamak is presented. Measurements of plasma poloidal and toroidal rotation, and a comparison against neoclassical theory, are presented. The results show that poloidal rotation is in good agreement with neoclassical theory while toroidal rotation is found to be anomalous. A new technique that allows for high temporal resolution measurements of plasma rotation is presented. This technique is used to test two models of intrinsic toroidal rotation: the so-called Helander model (Helander et al 2003 Physics of Plasmas 10 4396) and Rozhansky model (Rozhansky 2013 Perpendicular currents and electric fields in fully and partially ionized magnetized plasma Physics of Plasmas 24 101614). As TCABR is a relatively small device, the influence of the neutrals that form the basis of this model is expected to be enhanced. The results indicate that the mechanism proposed by Helander does not contribute significantly to the intrinsic toroidal rotation in TCABR plasmas. The measurements, however, indicate that the frictional force proposed by Rozhansky might be responsible for part of the intrinsic toroidal rotation observed in TCABR plasmas.
