The Dean has the Word The School of EE experienced an extraordinary year in terms of growth. Our total income increased by more than 11% from the previous year. Because the school is research intensive accounting for some 80% of our turnover, most of this growth owes to external research funding. Our competitive research funding increased by over 30% compared to 2006! Most of this increase is due to a doubling of the funding secured from the Swedish Research Council, our primary and most competitive funding agency in Sweden, based on scientific merit. Other large research sponsors include the Swedish Energy Agency, the European framework programmes (FP6 & FP7), the Swedish Governmental Agency for Innovation Systems, the Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research (SSF), the Swedish National Space Board, and Elforsk. Some of our largest industrial research sponsors include Ericsson, Scania, and ABB. We are currently expanding the number of researchers/faculty and Ph.D. students in our areas of growth. The school’s internal faculty funding allocation emphasizes high quality research and education. This assures maximum leverage of our internal resources and allows us to remain an attractive research partner. The School of Electrical Engineering conducts research and education in Electrical Power Engineering, Fusion and Space Plasma Physics, Telecommunications, and Networks, Information and Control Systems (NICS). Our goal is to meet the highest international standards in research and education, corresponding to relevant challenges in society. The school offers a five year program in Electrical Engineering (Civilingenjörsexamen i elektroteknik) primarily targeting Swedish students. In addition, five highly competitive international Master’s programs are offered with a global recruitment base. In the fall of 2007, EE welcomed some 180 foreign students to complete their master level education. These students are highly motivated and do very well at KTH. After completing their degree, several continue towards a Ph.D. or take up professional careers in industry in Sweden or elsewhere.

Doctoral Education Our ambition is to offer a Ph.D. educational program meeting the highest standards with students publishing in top international journals and conferences.  The contents cover a range of research areas reflecting the areas of specialization of the research groups at the School. The course curriculum has three main components: basic courses offered on a periodic basis, more specialized courses, and intensive summer schools.   At present, about 160 active Ph.D. students are enrolled and 19  Ph.D. and  19  Licentiate degrees were awarded during 2006. A significant expansion is foreseen in 2008. The plan is to recruit around 60 new Ph.D. students.    Graduates Schools

The School hosts two graduate schools. The Graduate School of Telecommunications (GST) includes, apart from KTH, departments from Mid Sweden University, University of Gävle and Blekinge Institute of Technology. GST was founded in 2002 and 51 Ph.D. students are presently enrolled in the program. So far 30 Licentiate degrees and 18 Ph.D. degrees have been awarded. The second graduate school is the newly formed ACCESS Graduate School which is associated with the ACCESS Linnaeus Centre - Autonomic Complex Communication Networks, Signals and Systems. The Centre was founded in 2006 through a 10 years grant from the Swedish Research Council.   Renewal and International Researchers

Renewal is an important aspect of our Ph.D. program. For our curriculum this means that visiting post-docs are encouraged to develop and offer courses close to their research areas, internationally renowned researchers are invited to give intensive courses and means are provided for thorough development of our basic courses. Our graduate schools play an important role in all this. Our students are also encouraged to spend time as visiting guests at other universities or facilities.

Automatic Control Our core competence is in modeling, identification, estimation, control and optimization. The basic research in this area is mainly sponsored by the Swedish Research Council (VR). One focus is identification and we are coordinating ERNSI. Network Control

A strategic area is networked control systems. This includes optimization and control in communication systems as well as control over communication networks. Here we are involved in the two EU-sponsored Integrated Projects ``Reconfigurable Ubiquitous Networked Embedded Systems -- RUNES’’ (completed in July 2007) and ”Service-Oriented Cross-layer infRAstructure for Distributed smart Embedded devices -- SOCRADES”. The control group is also partners in three European Networks of Excellence in FP6: HYCON, ARTIST2 and Euro-FGI. New Research Area

A recent area of research is systems biology, covering modeling and analysis of intra- and intercellular biochemical networks. We have several industrial Ph.D. projects and other research projects with several companies, and institutes including Scania, Bombardier Transportation, ABB, GM Powertrain, Ericsson and FOI. ♦♦ Karl Henrik Johansson was appointed professor in Networked Control Systems.

Research Projects Networked Embedded Systems

Networked embedded systems play an increasingly important role in industry and society, and affect most aspects of our lives. By enabling embedded systems to communicate, new applications and services are being developed in areas such as healthcare, industrial automation, security and transportation. Our research group focuses on a number of fundamental research problems on how to efficiently use system and network resources while providing reliability and quality. We are part of several leading international networks and collaborations in the area. In the European Integrated Project SOCRADES we are creating new methodologies, technologies and tools for the modeling, design, implementation and operation of networked systems made up of smart embedded devices in the industrial automation and control. Together with ABB, Boliden and others, we are developing and transferring research results on wireless networking and control that compensate for uncertainties of the underlying actuator and sensor networks.

quantifying robustness and identifying fragilities in biochemical networks underlying specific functions. The method also provides important information on the role of specific interactions in the network, and hence provides a useful basis for model reduction and network modularisation. Applications we have considered during the year include circadian clocks in mice and plants, white blood cell metabolism and programmed cell death. A collaboration with Karolinska Institutet on hierarchical modeling of human metabolism has also been initiated during the year.

The Alphavirus in work: The research in systems biology will provide tools that can be used to model intracellular biochemical networks and guide the syntheses of new systems level mechanisms aimed at improving specific functions and properties. The Alphavirus can be used to add the new mechanisms, in the form of new regulatory genes, to the cell.

Modeling and Estimation

The research group is investigating new wireless technology for control applications for the mining industry within the European Integrated Project SOCRADES. Industrial collaborators include ABB and Boliden.

Systems Biology

The research within systems biology focus on developing methods and tools for modeling, analysis and synthesis of inter- and intracellular biochemical networks. Important areas include system identification of gene regulatory networks, robustness analysis of biological functions and network modularisation according to function. Within network identification the recent focus has been on experiment design with the aim of uncovering the network structure. An iterative method ensuring a sufficient excitation of all relevant network interactions has been proposed. Robustness is a key property of biological functions, and we have recently proposed a control theoretic method for

A theme of our research in this area has been to take the use of the model into account in the estimation step, and particular control and fault detection applications. Much effort has been spent on understanding how different factors influence an identified model’s accuracy. This work is summarized in Jonas Mårtensson’s Ph.D. thesis. Also, experiment design has been a focal point of our research, with contributions to adaptive designs and input design for non-linear systems. Many of our more applied and industrial projects are based on this competence. One example is the research at the Centre for Autonomous systems on path planning, localization and grasping, where model based estimation methods is of fundamental importance. Another example is our recent industrial projects with Scania AB on energy management of an hybrid bus and our work in engine control with GM Powertrain, where again the modeling for optimization and control is a real challenge.

Communication Theory The chair in Communication Theory at the Royal Institute of Technology was founded in 2003, as a direct successor to the previous chair in Teletransmission Theory. The Communication Theory Lab conducts research and education in the general area of digital communications. Our undergraduate education is presented in collaboration with the Signal Processing Lab. Fourteen undergraduate courses are given every year, most of them during the final two years, and approximately 30 master theses are completed annually. At the graduate (Ph.D.) level, we offer courses in theoretical aspects of digital communications. The Lab’s research focuses on information and communication theory, with emphasis on wireless systems. Achievements

In 2007 we produced 19 new journal papers, and 24 conference papers. The Lab also received several new projects, notably the EU Fp7 STREP “SENDORA” and the VINNOVA/NORDITE project “CROPS2.” Some additional highlights during the year are listed below.

Research Projects Wireless Transmission

One central activity in wireless transmission is the utilization of partial channel-state information at the transmitter (partial CSIT), obtained via a resolution-constrained feedback link. We have fully characterized the diversity-multiplexing tradeoff in multiple-antenna (MIMO) transmission over a slowly fading channel with partial CSIT and furthermore studied optimal power control based on partial CSI feedback to optimize the expected rate in slow fading. Relaying and cooperative transmission are concepts for providing increased reliability, coverage and higher transmission rates in wireless networks. Our work in this area mainly concerns the development and analysis of resource allocation algorithms and the design of new transmission schemes. Some of our recent contributions provide analytical results on the outage probability and outage exponent for various scenarios. Our work also inlcudes the design of new relaying protocols based on hybrid digital-analog and purely analog techniques. Finally, we are also active in the field of generalized non-coherent transmission (no CSIT and no or partial CSIR). Two previously submitted journal papers were published, and ongoing activities concern extending previous work to support longer codewords.

Coding for Wireless Communications

Our research on coding for cooperative communications includes the design of rateless codes optimized for wireless networks, multi-user (hybrid) automatic repeat request schemes employing joint network and channel coding, and distributed coding schemes for the relay channel. Here, we focus on traditional designs for long block lengths and also on low-complexity approaches working with short block lengths. A target application in this context is wireless sensor networking employed for spectrum sensing in a cognitive radio scenario. We also study various aspects of network coding, in particular for cooperative communications. With network coding in the relay nodes, we have shown that higher diversity and coding gains can be

obtained. As a related topic, we are also studying rateless codes for packet-level erasure control. To meet the delay constraint, we investigate rateless codes with finite source-length, as needed to meet the requirement of real-time application. These codes still provide long channel codewords, to result in powerful channel codes. Hence, the proposed codes are well suited to wireless applications. (3)

T7 T8 Joint Source-Channel Coding

Our work on joint source-channel coding has resulted in new designs for robust distributed quantizes for different environments. Additionally we have been active in the field of designing analog joint source-channel codes, both for single as well as multiple sources. In our work on system optimization for iterative source-channel decoding, new code designs were developed which lead to an improved error robustness while at the same time the decoding complexity is significantly reduced. We have also studied achievable distortion exponents in source-channel coding over slow fading channels. This work characterizes the rate at which the end-to-end distortion can be made to approach zero as the channel SNR goes to infinity. In our work on coding for networked control, we have studied the problem of optimal encoder-decoder-controller design when controlling unstable linear systems. Here we have expanded on previous work by proposing various joint designs for control over a noisy channel, subject to different assumptions on process and measurement noise. Finally, we completed a study of implementing long multiple-description codes, using multi-stage quantization. This scheme was applied to image coding for lossy packet networks.

Research Projects

Peer-to-peer Media Streaming Systems

Peer-to-peer is a promising paradigm for large scale content distribution, such as IPTV and video on demand. In this project we derived mathematical models that describe the data distribution process in peer-to-peer overlays. Based on these models we defined overlay structures, membership and transmission control protocols that can provide large scale streaming with good perceived quality. We published our work in one magazine and four conference papers. Distributed Configuration Management

The aim of this work is to automate configuration, while allowing business objectives and operational policies to restrict the configuration process. We advocate a peer-to-peer approach to facilitate scalability and rapid reaction times in response to external events or failures. An application area of the project is self-configuration of UMTS Networks. This work has been performed in cooperation with the Center for Networked Systems (CNS) at SICS and with Ericsson Research. Wireless Networking

PodNet is a broadcasting system that relies on delay-tolerant forwarding of data chunks through the mobility of wireless nodes; the project is carried out in collaboration with ETH Zurich. We published one journal paper and two conference papers during the year. We have studied resource

sharing for integration of multicast and unicast data on time-slotted radio channels. The performance gains are substantial; a practical scheduling scheme has been proposed. The work has been published in one journal paper and one conference paper during the year. Router and Network Architecture

We have studied network processors in routers and done more work on IP address lookup. One journal paper and one conference paper has been published this year. New work started on traffic engineering and routing in IP networks with centralized control. Real-time interactive and streaming services would benefit from quality of service that could be provided by means of a probe-based admission control. Two journal papers were published during the year on this topic. Adaptive Decentralized Monitoring

We have engineered protocols that execute in a distributed management layer, performing the tasks of distributed polling, continuous estimation, and threshold detection for network-wide aggregates. These protocols are self-configuring, robust, and tunable at runtime. We have investigated treebased and gossip-based protocols for this purpose. This work has been performed in cooperation Mads Dam, KTH CSC, and with Cisco Systems, USA.

Research Projects In the division there are projects within three different areas:

Power System Dynamics and Control Electricity Markets and Production Planning Power System Network Planning

the dynamic of wind power farms, and the impact of the integration of large-scaled wind power generation on the dynamics of power systems are considered. Furthermore, this research area focuses on derivation of linear and nonlinear control strategies for controllable devices (such as FACTS, HVDC and PSS) to improve transient stability and damping. Application of PMU-technology to these control strategies is also considered. Electricity Markets and Production Planning

Given a set of rules, the producers of the electricity market have to plan their operation in order to use the power plants as efficiently as possible. Research projects within this area include topics such as expansion of the transmission system, congestion management, coordinated production planning of wind and hydro power, production planning of sales to spot market and real-time balancing market, regulation of distribution grids as well as electricity disclosure and other means to promote environmentally benign electricity generation. Power System Network Planning

Improved power system control can damp international electromechanical oscillations and decrease power prices.

Power System Dynamics and Control

This research area focuses on stability and damping in power systems, the impact of FACTS and HVDC systems on the dynamics of power systems, and how these systems can be used to improve utilization of the existing transmission systems and the security and stability of power systems. Also,

The research performed at the Electric Power Systems Lab considers different types of grids, but the basic behavior for all grids is the same. Actual types of grids include transmission grids, distribution grids, local micro grids, and railway electricity feeding grids. Projects treat improvements of the protection system, dimensioning with respect to uncertain future needs, reliability impact from severe weather conditions, risk analysis from both consumer and owner perspectives and operation planning under uncertainty.

Electrical Machines and Power Electronics The major research areas at the department are : Electrical Machines and Drives

This area covers both conventional and unconventional electrical machines. Conventional machines include induction machines, synchronous machines and DC machines. The major research topics here are formulated to achieve a better understanding of the sources of losses, noise and vibration with the ultimate goal of reducing them. Advanced simulation tools and new materials are examples of how such goals can be achieved. Unconventional machines include permanent magnet machines, transverse flux machines and cover radial, axial and linear topologies. These machines are suitable in applications where high torque density and/ or high efficiency are important parameters for system performance which can therefore outweigh the extra cost for these machines. Example of such applications are electric hybrid vehicles, wind power generators, integral motors etc. Today, permanent magnet motors are interesting even for industrial drives. Power Electronics and Control

The activities are concentrated to new converter topologies, circuits for new semiconductor components, and control aspects of utility applications, such as FACTS and HVDC. A field of special interest is real-time simulation of power converters in electric power systems. A powerful real-time simulator which is used both in research and education is situated in the laboratory. Electric Traction

The main focus at the department includes both improvements in performance of the existing electrical equipment in rail-borne vehicles and suggestions of replacing hydraulic or pneumatic actuators by their electrical counterparts. The existing equipment includes the step-down transformer, propulsion drive, AC/DC converters and auxiliary power equipment.

Radiofrequency Wave Heating.

Plasma Wall Interaction & First Wall Materials.

The research is concentrated on issues relevant for a reactor-class device (e.g. ITER) with the central goal to provide the best data for predictions of material behavior in such a machine. The major issues to be tackled in the field of plasmawall interactions are: (1) lifetime of plasma-facing components (PFC), (2) accumulation of hydrogen isotopes in PFC; (3) carbon and metal (beryllium, tungsten) dust formation. This activity comprises: (1) determination of material erosion, migration

The research area of radiofrequency (RF) wave heating of fusion plasmas includes modelling and development of RF heating as a tool to control the plasma. The main emphasis is the development of numerical codes to model RF heating, validated against JET experiments. The Laboratory has carried out experiments on JET to control the plasma by inducing plasma rotation, driving currents and heating. Two unique codes for self-consistent modelling of heating and current drive have been developed: PION and SELFO. The Laboratory has leading roles in the European Topical Group of Heating and Current Drive and the Task Force on Integrated Modelling. This work involves coordinating the development of codes that are to be the standard in Europe for modelling ITER.

Industrial Information and Control Systems The research at the Department of Industrial Information and Control Systems is targeted at the development of complete and cost-effective IT-based operation support systems for complex industrial processes. With respect to industries, the electric power industry accounts for more than half of the department’s engagements, the telecommunication industry accounts for a fifth. The remaining parts are divided among the pulp and paper, manufacturing, railway and defense industries. With the vision of making successful IT implementations commonplace, the department’s research includes the system management process from conceptual planning to operations. Research Areas

There are four main areas of research. The first area concerns the system management processes that lead to systems with desirable properties. We study the planning, operation, and maintenance processes as well as procurement, development, and modification projects. The second area concerns the system properties. The focus is on understanding what characterizes good systems in terms of their performance, availability and reliability, security, safety, interoperability, modifiability, etc. The third area considers the impact of the systems, i.e. the relation between the systems and their industrial environment in terms of requirements, utility, and costs. The fourth and final area concerns the research tools employed for the previous three areas. Enterprise architectural models for describing the systems and assessment formalisms for evaluating them are developed here. Publication of several new books during 2007. See the Bibliography.

Research Projects Management Processes

Good systems require good engineering. In this research area, the focus is on the systems engineering processes and methods required for the development of information and control systems. We devise methods and models for IT project management, information systems development and procurement, strategic IT planning, and IT service delivery. The main industrial focus in this area is on the electric power industry, but other domains are also addressed. The project IT Governance of Technical Support Systems is part of this research area. System Properties

This research area concerns the qualities, or properties, of information and control systems. In order to build good systems, a clear understanding is needed of what the desirable characteristics of a system are and how to produce them. On a high level, we know that qualities such as performance, information security, modifiability, interoperability, safety, reliability and availability are of importance, but how should systems be designed to ensure such properties? Within this research area, we focus on understanding these quality attributes. In order to do so, assessment methods and modelling languages supporting analysis and development of the various properties are devised.

The following projects are part of this research area: • Component Reliability Data in Information Systems • Functional Fit for Maintenance Management • Modifiability of Technical Support Systems • Requirements on Substation Communication • System Security in Technical Support Systems Integration • Interoperability of Technical Support Systems • Performance and Availability in Wide Area Monitoring and Control Systems Business Impact

In order to ensure the overall quality of the systems, it is important to consider the systems in their context. The interaction between the systems and the environment can be described in terms of business requirements and the provided utility. In this research area, these issues are considered. Methods for business performance and IT utility assessment, IT cost estimations as well as architecture principle specifications are developed in this research. Furthermore, assessment methods and modeling languages for business and IT alignment are constructed. Projects in this area include: Benefits of Mobile Workforce Management Efficiency Measures in Electricity Distribution Automatic Meter Reading for Distribution System Operation and Maintenance Research Tools

The research areas covered by ICS all require tools and theoretical frameworks for modelling and assessment of the information and control systems in their environment. In this research area, the project A Tool for Enterprise Architecture Analysis is conducted.

The major research field of the Microsystem Technology group (MST) is Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS), where the fabrication concepts and materials from microelectronics are adapted to the making of small, low-cost, high-performance electromechanical, optoelectromechanical and microfluidic devices. The automotive and medical technology industries are the most mature application areas for MEMS but today there is also an intense activity in the fields of biotechnology and radio frequency engineering. The structures are fabricated in the KTH ELAB laboratory. This laboratory comprises 1300 m2 of cleanroom area for fabrication of microelectronics and special purpose micro- and nanostructures. Applications

At the MST lab, we use the common technology toolbox in a broad spectrum of application areas. Bio-micro-nanofluidics, where fluidic systems are used, often combined with optical detection, to study and analyse biological material such as whole cells, pathogens and nucleic acids. Optical systems, where optical waveguide based sensors, mirrors, and detector arrays are combined with fluidics or electronics. Telecom and RF technology, where MEMS electrical switches and phase-shifters are integrated with RF circuits. 3D-MEMS integration on ICs, where we are developing generic 3D technology platforms for wafer-level integration of MEMS on top of integrated circuits and for wafer-level packaging.

Research Projects Multi-antenna Wireless Communication

The next generation wireless systems feature multiple antennas at both the base station and user terminals. This technique enable high data throughput in terms of simultaneous transmission to spatially separated users, but comes with drastically higher requirements on channel information at the transmitter and increased complexity. To improve the feedback load, several robust transmission schemes have been proposed that exploits long-term statistics and efficiently quantized feedback of gain information. The computational load can be improved by decision feedback equalization, which is a non-linear detection technique that combines low complexity and superior performance compared with existing designs. In the development and evaluation of interference limited systems, it is of paramount interest to have realistic channel models. The need for extending classical models with the joint characteristics of the propagation to a receiver from several transmitters, or vice versa, have increased to meet the demand of the future multi-user systems. Measurements have been conducted both indoors and outdoors in an attempt to characterize such joint channel characteristics; in particular, the correlation between different large-scale parameters such as shadow fading and angular spread.

Pattern Classification

Pattern classification techniques derived from statistical principles have been proven powerful in addressing practical problems. The challenge is often to cope with unseen patterns, i.e., patterns which are very different from those examined during the training phase. A method has been proposed for estimating the reliability of a classifier to cope with such situations. Antenna Design

Reconfigurable antennas have been designed and built in order to enhance the wireless link between a base station and a mobile handset. To arrive at a working design, effort has been put into finding trade-offs between different design parameters that in the end decide the performance of the antenna. The proposed antenna has been measured and analyzed in different environments to establish its practical value in the overall system.

Array Signal Processing

This technique is concerned with extracting/transmitting information from/by a group of sensors. The figure illustrates an array of speakers that can be used to steer the sound in different directions, e.g., to create surround sound effects. It is in many cases necessary to use quiet periods, when only noise is received, to estimate the spatiallydependent noise covariance. When stationarity considerations limit the amount of data, joint signal and noise estimation can however improve the performance.

Design of Measurement Techniques

Modern and future radio-communication systems put high requirements on hardware blocks such as the radio frequency power amplifiers, the analog/ digital converters and terminal antennas, which require novel measurement techniques for both design and production. The research within this area is carried out in cooperation with the University of Gävle. Navigation Systems

Navigation and positioning beyond the use of a stand-alone GPS receiver, for vehicle and personal usage, is an active research area. In the navigation case, efforts are spend to fuse asynchronous data streams from a plurality of sensors, including inertial navigation sensors, cameras, and map information.

Space and Plasma Physics Research

Our research deals with plasmas in space as well as in the laboratory. The vast majority of our universe is plasma. The only (but important) exception is cold solid bodies like planets, comets, and asteroids. Thus, plasma physics has universal applications. The research profits from a fruitful combination of laboratory experiments and space experiments as well as theory and numerical simulation. We play an active role in a number of international space missions, building instruments, planning instrument operations, and analysing data. Education

We participate actively in the educational programme. At the MSc level a number of courses are given and MSc thesis projects are offered, often closely related to on-going research activities. At the Ph.D. level we offer thesis projects in space and laboratory plasma physics.

♦♦ Instrument development for Magnetospheric Multi-Scale has started. NASA officially decided in 2007 to go ahead with the MMS project. SNSB funding for this long-term commitment has been secured, and the development work has started for providing 18 electric field probes as part of the SMART instrument suite on MMS. ♦♦ Due to a formal agreement with the Max Planck Institute in Garching, we now have access to data from the microgravity experiments on the International Space Station. A first set of data from ISS has been successfully analyzed and published. ♦♦ Tommy Eriksson defended his Ph.D. Thesis “Multi-point measurements of ULF waves in the terrestrial magnetosphere” in June 2007. Tommy Johansson defended his Ph.D. Thesis “Investigations of auroral electric fields and currents” in November 2007. Thirteen MSc Theses in space physics & engineering were completed 2007. ♦♦ During 2007, a total of 36 refereed papers were published or accepted. 52 presentations, thirteen of which were invited lectures, were given at conferences, workshops, and seminars at foreign research institutes by members of the staff.

Research Projects Auroral Physics

Aurora is the only signature of the plasma processes in the ionosphere that is visible to the naked eye. We study auroral processes from satellites, and the auroral fine structure from the ground, using the newly developed ASK instrument. The studies are supplemented by global auroral images from the Polar spacecraft. Magnetospheric Physics

The research focuses on the dynamics of the magnetosphere and the dependence of the magnetosphere on the solar wind and its variability. Our activities deal with high-altitude signatures of auroral acceleration regions, plasma penetration and anomalous transport, plasma convection in the tail, the transpolar potential and its connection to the magnetopause, and ULF waves and pulsations. Currently the main source of new data from is the ESA Cluster mission with four identical satellites orbiting the Earth in formation.

Complex Plasmas

Complex plasmas consist of ions, electrons and small solid particles (dust grains) that are charged by their interaction with the electrons and ions. They are of special interest, since they can form liquid and crystalline states, plasma crystals, and the dynamics of the charged dust grains are directly observable. In Earth based experiments gravity plays a dominant role. Under microgravity, on the Space Station, the grains move freely in the bulk of the plasma and a wealth of new phenomena has been observed.

Applied Plasma Physics

Solar System Plasma Physics

Applied plasma physics is an extremely wide field. Plasma medicine, plasma biology, and plasma environmental physics are other emerging subjects of rapidly growing interest and impact. Measurement techniques developed include photographic methods, spectroscopy, microwave probing, and probe methods for electric and magnetic fields.

The research concerns the plasma environments of solar system bodies other than Earth as well as the Sun and the Solar wind. Research interests include: solar wind interaction with magnetised and non-magnetised solid bodies, planetary magnetospheres, moon-magnetosphere interaction, and solar wind structure. Our current solar system missions are: Rosetta, en route comet 67/P Churyumov-Gerasimenko and BepiColombo where we build an instrument to measure the electric field in the Mercury magnetosphere.
