1. Decay Chains of Fast Alpha Emitters in the Actinide Region
University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysikAbstract : With the advent of increasingly advanced spectroscopic instruments after the turn of the century, it has become accessible to unravel the structure of instantly ‘vanishing’ nuclei, with lifetimes as short as 1 μs, and responsible for pile-up events in analog electronics. Experimental data has been recorded by the Nuclear Structure Group at Lund University for 48Ca/50Ti + nat. READ MORE

2. Development of Radon Detectors for Earthquake Prediction
University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)Abstract : The purpose of this project is to simulate the detection of γ-ray spectra emitted by radon isotopes and their daughters. This is done as a contribution to the development of radiation detectors to be used in a research project investigating the possibility of using increased amounts of the radioactive gas radon as an earthquake precursor.

3. Accumulation of 63Ni, 106Ru and 125Sb in phytoplankton
University essay fromAbstract : Background: Nuclear Power Plants (NPPs) release small amounts of radionuclides which contribute with a low radiation dose to the environment as well as humans and animals. In this context, marine ecosystems are critical, since most NPPs in Sweden are located by the sea. READ MORE

4. Prototyping of an automated cyclic Neutron Activation Analysis setup
University essay from Lunds universitet/Kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenAbstract : A prototype Neutron Activation Analysis (NAA) setup based on a Deuterium-Tritium (DT) neutron generator is under development at Lund University. It serves as proof-of-principle for NAA based on a Compact Accelerator-driven Neutron Source. READ MORE

5. Development of a computational method for determining gamma energy escape from calorimeters at CLAB
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad kärnfysikAbstract : Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company- SKB has conducted measurement campaigns at the Swedish central interim storage facility for spent nuclear fuel- CLAB over the years, extending from year 2003 to 2019 where the gamma energy escape was acquired. At CLAB the spent nuclear fuel assembly is inserted into the calorimeter; device intended to measure temperature increase due to decay heat from the fuel assembly. READ MORE
