  1. 1. Simulation-based discrimination of Crab pulsar models with XL-Calibur

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Dennis Åkerström; [2024]
    Keywords : Astroparticle Physics; Astrophysics; Detector Physics; Simulation; Theoretical Physics; Engineering Physics; Pulsar models; Crab pulsar; Astropartikelfysik; Astropartikelfysik; Detektorfysik; Simulering; Teoretisk Fysik; Teknisk Fysik; Pulsar modeller; Krabbpulsaren;

    Abstract : Polarisation of X-ray light is being investigated with polarimeters to extend the borders of what can be observed. Distant compact objects, such as pulsars, that are to small on the sky to be analysed with imaging can be investigated by analysing the polarisation of the emitted light. This can reveal physics previously hidden by their small nature. READ MORE

  2. 2. “A kick-start… but a long-term effort.” Patient care practices alongside intragastric balloon procedures : -a qualitative study on clinical dietitians’ perspectives-

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för kost- och måltidsvetenskap

    Author : Anne-Sophie Copin; [2023]
    Keywords : intragastric balloon; intragastric balloon procedure; IGB; overweight; obesitas; obesity; obesity management; patient care; procedure; practice; qualitative study; dietitian; healthcare professionals; bariatric surgery; obesity surgery;

    Abstract : Background: There are treatments available to manage overweight and obesity (O&O). Intragastric balloons (IGB) are one option; they fill the stomach, increasing the sensation of satiety, limiting the amount of food to be ingested, and thus leading to weight loss. READ MORE

  4. 4. Design and Evaluation of an Automated Pyro Cutter System for Stratospheric Balloons

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Leia Nummisalo; [2023]
    Keywords : Stratospheric balloons; PCB; Recovery system; CNES; pyro cutter;

    Abstract : This thesis describes the development of an autonomous recovery system for stratospheric balloons, focusing on the novel pressurised balloon prototype BALMAN of CNES. Stratospheric balloons, reaching altitudes of up to 40 km, are utilised for scientific experiments, with recovery of payloads being a critical aspect. READ MORE

  5. 5. Comparing various methods for improving resource allocation on a single node cluster in Kubernetes

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Abaied Sopi; Plotoaga Andrei; [2023]
    Keywords : Kubernetes; latency-critical; resource allocation; CRI-RM; Vertical Pod Autoscaler;

    Abstract : When dealing with latency-critical applications in Kubernetes, a common strategy is to over-allocate resources to ensure the application can meet its latency guarantees during traffic surges. However, this practice often leads to resource underutilizationas the application will not fully utilize its reserved resources. READ MORE
