How thermoelectric materials convert temperature differences into electricity for space exploration
In short: Dr. Anastasiia Prytuliak of the European Space Agency explains the fundamental physics behind thermoelectricity. This lecture provides the essential scientific context for the ThermoMag project, which investigates how these materials function at the atomic level.
Thermoelectricity involves the direct conversion of temperature gradients into electrical energy. This lecture, delivered by Dr. Anastasiia Prytuliak, focuses on the underlying physical principles governing these phenomena. The research is conducted through the ThermoMag project, a collaboration based at the Institut Laue-Langevin and the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility in Grenoble, France.
The ThermoMag initiative receives financial support from the European Commission through its seventh major research funding cycle. It is managed under the leadership of the European Space Agency to advance our understanding of materials that could prove vital for future space missions.
