  1. 11. Expansions of neutrino oscillation and decay probabilities in matter

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Jesper Grönroos; [2023]
    Keywords : Theoretical physics; Particle physics; Neutrino physics; Neutrino oscillations; Series expansions; Physics beyond the Standard Model; Teoretisk fysik; Partikelfysik; Neutrinofysik; Neutrinooscillationer; Serieutvecklingar; Fysik bortom Standardmodellen;

    Abstract : We consider a simple model for invisible neutrino decay as a sub-leading effect in the standard three-flavor neutrino oscillation framework, and use the Cayley–Hamilton formalism to obtain a full set of neutrino oscillation probabilities in matter. These are given as analytical series expansions in the small parameters α ∼ O(λ^2) and s_13 ∼ O(λ), where λ ≡ 0. READ MORE

  2. 12. Quantum Algorithms for Feature Selection and Compressed Feature Representation of Data

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : William Laius Lundgren; [2023]
    Keywords : Feature selection; autoencoders; quantum machine learning; quantum circuits; quantum annealing; Funktionsval; datakompression; kvantmaskininlärning; kvantalgoritmer; kvantkretsar;

    Abstract : Quantum computing has emerged as a new field that may have the potential to revolutionize the landscape of information processing and computational power, although physically constructing quantum hardware has proven difficult,and quantum computers in the current Noisy Intermediate Scale Quantum (NISQ) era are error prone and limited in the number of qubits they contain.A sub-field within quantum algorithms research which holds potential for the NISQ era, and which has seen increasing activity in recent years, is quantum machine learning, where researchers apply approaches from classical machine learning to quantum computing algorithms and explore the interplay between the two.

  3. 13. MadGraph Implementations of the Chirality-Flow Formalism for QED

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation

    Author : Emil Boman; [2023]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The chirality-flow formalism has been proven to simplify the calculation of helicity amplitudes, both analytically and in a first numerical implementation developed as an extension of MadGraph5_aMC@NLO. Expanding on this work, two new implementations have been developed. READ MORE

  4. 14. Path integrals in Quantum Mechanics and their application to low-dimensional supersymmetry

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

    Author : Gaétan Kaouadji; [2023]
    Keywords : Path integrals quantum mechanics quantum field theory supersymmetry;

    Abstract : This report aims to give an insight to the path integral formalism in quantum mechanics. After explaining the kernel's construction, some of its properties and ways to compute it, we see how it relates to the Schrödinger picture. Moreover, we see how its representation can change if it is defined in the space, momentum, time or energy space. READ MORE

  5. 15. Quantum Transport in Topological Insulator Nanowires

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Sergi Pradas Rodriguez; [2023]
    Keywords : quantum transport; topological insulators; nanowires; numerical analysis; Kwant; etc.; kvanttransport; topologiska isolatorer; nanotrådar; numerisk analys; Kvant; etc.;

    Abstract : Three-dimensional topological insulators are materials that have a bulk band gap like a traditional insulator, but which hold topologically protected conducting surface states. In this thesis we present a numerical analysis of the surface states of topological insulator nanowires in the tight-binding approximation. READ MORE
