Can Hα observations recover the rotational velocities of disk galaxies?

Detta projekt riktar sig till att undersöka om vi kan skapa en bild av en simulerad galax, göra mätningar på den som om ett värkligt teleskop hade sett den på natthimlen, och se om dessa mätningar stämmer överens med simulerade mätvärden. Med hjälp av given data så kommer vi återskapa en bild med hög upplösning som om du själv stod framför och tittade på galaxen. Sedan kommer vi dumma ner bilden sThe angular momentum of a galaxy is a very important concept when studying its kinematics. The two parameters that define the angular momentum are the rotational velocity of the galaxy and its dynamical mass. One of the problems with measuring the rotational velocity of a galaxy is that the galaxy may be observed at an angle. This impacts the radial velocity profile a telescope will measure. It wo

Constructing Democracy: The Role of LGBTQ+ Rights in Israeli Identity Formation

Improving the representation of tropical wetlands in LPJ-GUESS

Tropical wetlands are considered to be the greatest source of wetland-associated methane emissions. Yet, their representation in bottom-up modelling approach is oversimplified in many cases, leading to low confidence in current and future attribution attempts. The LPJ-GUESS dynamic global ecosystem model (DGVM) combines a detailed representation of high-latitude peatlands with a primitive placehol

For The Greater Good: Crime Narratives of Purity and Danger by Politicians in Iceland

This thesis investigates the narratives Icelandic politicians use to discuss crime, particularly focusing on themes of cultural purity and danger. The study aims to understand how these narratives influence public perception and policy. Politicians often frame crime as a significant threat to societal norms and values, using various rhetorical strategies to evoke emotions such as fear and urgency.

Domstolarna i Jämtland och jordfrågor efter freden i Brömsebro

På 1600-talet var jorden mycket viktig. Den här uppsatsen handlar om juridiska frågor kopplade till jord, samt arv av jord, i Jämtland efter freden i Brömsebro år 1645. Anledningen till detta är att Jämtland genom freden i Brömsebro blev svenskt från att tidigare ha varit dansk-norskt. Den stora majoriteten av alla jämtar hade även fråntagits sin jord av den danska kungen genom en rannsakning som In the 17th century, land was very important. This essay deals with legal issues connected to land, and inheritance of land, in Jämtland after the Peace of Brömsebro in 1645. The reason for this is that Jämtland became Swedish through the Peace of Brömsebro from having previously been Danish-Norwegian. The vast majority of Jämtland’s inhabitants had also been deprived of their land by the Danish k
