Profile
This Master’s program in Space Physics – Physics gives you a broad education in Space and Plasma Physics and teaches how to observe the physical processes in the ionosphere associated with space weather with the EISCAT radars and other research facilities near Tromsø, as well as how to replicate and study them in the Aurolab Plasma Laboratory of The Department of Physics and Tehcnology at UiT The Arctic University of Norway. The space physics activities at the Department are strengthened by the plasma laboratory Aurolab that can be employed to investigate plasma processes found in space, especially those occurring during energetic particle precipitation that cause the Aurora. The Aurolab’s plasma chamber Njord is designed to study flows and beams in weakly magnetized, low-temperature plasmas, the physical processes that cause charged particle acceleration, magnetic field-aligned electric fields, and plasma instabilities and turbulence.
