  1. 1. Increased system sensitivity using fluorescent based immunoassays on the Gyrolab® platform

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för farmaci

    Author : Gabriel Lisra; [2023]
    Keywords : Gyrolab; fluorescence; sensitivity; immunoassays;

    Abstract : Immunoassays have become an essential tool in several fields of bioanalytics with tremendous advances in sensitivity and formats seen through the last three decades. Many diseases are today diagnosed solely based on biomarker concentrations evaluated through immunoassays. READ MORE

  3. 2. Measurement of the snow accumulation in Antarctica with a neutrino radio detector and extension to the measurement of the index-of-refraction profile

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Author : Jakob Beise; [2021]
    Keywords : Askaryan; UHE neutrinos; in-ice radio detection; in-situ detector calibration; deep learning; radio neutrino detector; ARIANNA;

    Abstract : High-energy neutrino physics offers a unique way to investigate the most violent phenomena in our universe. The detection of energies above E > 1017 eV is most efficient using the Askaryan effect, where a neutrino-induced particle shower produces coherent radio emission that is detectable with radio antennas.

  4. 3. In-situ calibration device of firn properties for Askaryan neutrino detectors

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Author : Jakob Beise; [2021]
    Keywords : Askaryan; UHE neutrinos; in-ice radio detection; in-situ detector calibration; deep learning; radio neutrino detector; ARIANNA;

    Abstract : Simulations have demonstrated that high-energy neutrinos (E > 1017 eV) are detected cost-efficiently via the Askaryan effect in ice, where a particle cascade induced by the neutrino interaction produces coherent radio emission that can be picked up by antennas installed below the surface. A good knowledge of the near surface ice (aka firn) properties is required to reconstruct the neutrino properties. READ MORE

  5. 4. Ray Tracing and Spectral Modelling of Excited Hydroxyl Radiation from Cryogenic Flames in Rocket Combustion Chambers

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

    Author : Jaka Perovšek; [2018]
    Keywords : spectral modelling; excited hydroxyl radiation; OH* radiation; ray tracing; spectroscopy; rocket combustion chambers; rocket engines; hydrogen-oxygen combustion; combustion instabilities;

    Abstract : A visualisation procedure was developed which predicts excited hydroxyl (OH*) radiation from the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) solutions of cryogenic hydrogen-oxygen rocket flames. The model of backward ray tracing through inhomogeneous media with a continuously changing refractive index was implemented. READ MORE

  6. 5. Characterisation of a Gas Modulation Refractometer for Detection of Gases at 1550 nm

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Nils Zachmann; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Only very few molar polarizabilities are known with high accuracy; and when so, they are in general only known at a given wavelength. There is therefore a need to assess the molar polarizability with high accuracy of various gases, at different wavelengths. READ MORE
