  2. 1. A Cosmic Quest for New Worlds. Characterising Exoplanet Signals via Radial Velocity and Transit Photometry

    Author : Iskra Georgieva; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Exoplanet; transits; radial velocities; planetary systems;

    Abstract : Since the first unambiguous detection of a planet around a Sun-like star, the interest in the new and exciting field of exoplanets has grown immensely. New and exciting developments are seen at a pace unparalleled for most subfields of astronomy. READ MORE

  4. 2. Spectral Analysis of Nonuniformly Sampled Data and Applications

    Author : Prabhu Babu; Peter Stoica; Fredrik Gustafsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Spectral analysis; array processing; nonuniform sampling; sparse parameter estimation; direction of arrival DOA estimation; covariance fitting; sinusoidal parameter estimation; maximum-likelihood; non-parametric approach; exoplanet detection; radial velocity technique; Sudoku; Electrical Engineering with specialization in Signal Processing; Elektroteknik med inriktning mot signalbehandling;

    Abstract : Signal acquisition, signal reconstruction and analysis of spectrum of the signal are the three most important steps in signal processing and they are found in almost all of the modern day hardware. In most of the signal processing hardware, the signal of interest is sampled at uniform intervals satisfying some conditions like Nyquist rate. READ MORE

    Abstract : Since the first unambiguous detection of a planet around a Sun-like, the interest in the new and exciting field of exoplanets has grown immensely. New and exciting developments are seen at a pace unparalleled for most subfields of astronomy and astrophysics. READ MORE

  6. 4. Dissipative Kerr solitons in normal dispersion waveguides

    Author : Òskar Bjarki Helgason; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; optical frequency combs; four-wave mixing; dissipative solitons; microresonators; nonlinear optics;

    Abstract : The microresonator comb (microcomb) is a laser source which generatesequally spaced coherent lines in the spectral domain. Having a miniaturefootprint and the potential of being low cost, it has attracted attention inmultiple applications. READ MORE
