  1. 1. The Commissioning of a Pixelated Charge-particle Detector : for High-sensitivity Measurements of Hydrogen

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad kärnfysik

    Author : Joacim Stenlund; Aram Himelius; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The Tandem Laboratory at Uppsala University, a national research infrastructure forworld-leading materials analysis, has a long history of performing hydrogen measurementusing NRA (Nuclear Reaction Analysis). This project intents to diversify the infras-tructure for hydrogen measurement by investigating the feasibility of an advanced ERCS(Elastic Recoil Coincidence Scattering) system, enabling finer detection limits.

  3. 2. Hydrogen Absorption in Metal Hydrides : Transmission of light in relation to hydrogen concentration and site occupancy of ultrathin vanadium films

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad kärnfysik

    Author : David Sörme; [2022]
    Keywords : metal hydrides; iron-vanadium superlattice; hydrogen; hydrogen site occupancy; hydrogen concentrationm; hydrogen storage;

    Abstract : In this study the effect of hydrogenation on the optical properties in the wavelength range 400-1023 nm of an ultrathin iron-vanadium superlattice is investigated. Specifically, mea- surements of transmission are performed under different states of hydrogenation, along with measurements of absolute hydrogen concentration and hydrogen site occupancy. READ MORE

  4. 3. The Effects of Resource Endowments on Transnational Rebel Recruitment

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för freds- och konfliktforskning

    Author : Johannes Stevense; [2021]
    Keywords : Transnational rebels; Recruitment; Insurgency; Resource endowments; Weinstein; Foreign fighters; Armed conflict; NPFL; NRA; Liberia; Uganda; Ivory Coast;

    Abstract : While transnational rebellion and rebel recruitment have received much attention in previous literature, the combination of the two, transnational rebel recruitment, has been relatively understudied. This study aims to cover this research gap by further developing Jeremy Weinstein’s theory on resource endowments to test their effect on transnational rebel recruitment. READ MORE

  5. 4. Is less more after civil war? Examining the impact of rebel group cohesiveness on the post-conflict state-building trajectory defined by order

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen; Lunds universitet/Graduate School; Lunds universitet/Master of Science in Development Studies

    Abstract : Why some civil wars end for good and others start up again is a complex question that inhibits many factors. This thesis argues, that the cohesiveness of rebel groups is one of the important ones in the post-conflict phase. During civil war the rebel groups can build up their political, military, and societal profile. READ MORE
