  1. 1. Application of Fourier Transforms to time-resolved ambient pressure spectroscopy operando studies of CO oxidation over Pt(111)

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik

    Author : Grigore-Leon Ratiu; [2024]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The study of heterogeneous catalysis has important implications in increasing the efficiency of industrial processes and in reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases from sources such as automobiles. A reaction with high industrial relevance is the oxidation of CO on noble metal catalysts. READ MORE

  3. 2. The swing of the pendulum: Sweden's pivot to NATO : A case of small states' shift in security policy

    University essay from Försvarshögskolan

    Author : Irena Bonnier; [2024]
    Keywords : Security and defence policy; Sweden; NATO; Small states studies; Deterrence; Shelter theory s political military dimension; Realism; Foreign Policy Change; Domestic determinants of small states security policy; Process-tracing; Säkerhets- och försvarspolitik; Sverige; NATO; Småstatsteori; Avskräckning; Vindskyddsteorins politiska militära dimension; Realism; Utrikespolitisk förändring; Inhemska påverkansfaktorer på småstaters säkerhetspolitik; Processpårning;

    Abstract : Sweden is the only state in the Baltic Sea region currently not under NATO protection, which puts the state in a particularly vulnerable position. On 18 May 2022, Sweden officially deemed NATO alignment a more effective option of security strategy in projecting deterrence and dealing with the security challenges the state is facing, compared to a strategy of non-alignment which has been Sweden’s security posture for over 200 years.

  4. 3. Quantum Optical Description of High-order Harmonic Generation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Atomfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Isabel Moreno; [2024]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : High-order Harmonic Generation (HHG) is a highly non-linear process in which an atom interacts with a strong laser field. The laser field lowers the atomic potential barrier allowing bound electrons to escape into the continuum through tunnel ionization, propagate, and, with some probability, recombine with the parent ion.

  5. 4. Freshwater Security in Small Island Developing States: A case study of Anguilla

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Julia Korten; [2023]
    Keywords : Anguilla; Desalination; Freshwater import; Freshwater security; Small Island Developing State; Sustainable Devel-opment; Wastewater treatment;

    Abstract : Freshwater scarcity leads to serious effects on the socioeconomic and commercial development of a country. The management of freshwater resources will be one of the most pressing issues of this millennium making it a catalyst for war and peace. READ MORE

  6. 5. Quantum signatures in the work fluctuation-dissipation relation protocol

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Matematisk fysik

    Author : Jian Li; [2023]
    Keywords : Quantum entanglement; fluctuation; coherence; quantum information; quantum thermodynamics; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Quantum thermodynamics deals with the behavior of thermal machines that operate in the quantum regime, where coherences and entanglement can have a significant impact. However, detecting such quantum effects in thermal machines can be challenging, as they are primarily manifested as fluctuations. READ MORE
