Swedish Institute of Space Physics, Uppsala, Sweden, is looking for a PhD student in Space Physics. The position is related to studies of space plasmas. Applications are invited for a PhD student to study kinetic plasma processes operating in space plasma regions of fundamental importance, such as magnetic reconnection sites, shocks, and turbulence regions. Such processes…
For the second time the Swedish Institute of Space Physics (IRF) will explore Venus. On board the Indian Venus mission Shukrayaan-1, IRF’s satellite instrument Venusian Neutrals Analyzer (VNA) will study how the charged particles from the Sun interact with the atmosphere and exosphere of the planet. Between 2006-2014 IRF’s instrument ASPERA-4 (Analyzes of Space Plasma…
A network of automated cameras for NLC studies After several years of testing in Moscow and Novosibirsk (Russia), an international network commenced work in 2004 in Moscow, Novosibirsk and Lund (Sweden) to continuously monitor noctilucent clouds (NLC). This network has been extended for successive years, and at present (in 2020) it includes cameras situated in…
