  1. 1. The Pseudo-Unitary Group U(p,q) in Quantum Magnonics

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Materialteori

    Author : Maximilian Meyer-Mölleringhof; [2024]
    Keywords : quantum magnonics; materials theory; pseudo-unitary; quantum mechanics; magnons; antiferromagnets;

    Abstract : The study of magnons is an essential part of combining quantum information science and spintronics, allowing for the investigation of quantum properties such as entanglement in solid-state devices. Magnons are commonly described using the theory of T. Holstein and H. READ MORE

  3. 2. Dictators Without Borders: Host-Origin Relations and Transnational Repression : A qualitative case study on the causes of transnational repression in democratic host countries

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för freds- och konfliktforskning

To fill this gap, this study is bringing in the neglected role of democratic host states by exploring: Why do certain democratic host states encounter significant incidents of transnational repression on their soil while others do not?

  5. 4. Prospects for a Free Electron Laser at the FemtoMAX Beamline

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

    Author : Johan Holmberg; [2024]
    Keywords : Free Electron Lasers; FEL; synchrotron radiation; MAX IV; FemtoMAX; GENESIS 1.3; XFEL; X-rays; soft X-rays; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : A Free Electron Laser (FEL), is a device that generates extremely coherent and brilliant radiation using electrons accelerated to relativistic velocities in a particle accelerator. The process utilises similar equipment to what is used at a synchrotron source like MAX IV, but in addition there is an interaction between the relativistic electron beam and the generated radiation to achieve an exponential growth in radiation intensity.
