  1. 26. Focal Spot Optimization Using Spatial Light Modulation and a Phase Retrieval Algorithm

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

    Author : Robert Petersen; [2023]
    Keywords : Spatial Light Modulation; Phase Retrieval Algorithm; Focal Spot Optimization; Adaptive Optics; Wavefront Sensing; Lasers; Physics and Astronomy; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Aberrations to the wavefront of a laser beam reduce the quality of the focal spot and are generally undesired. This project is aimed at determining the aberrations of laser beams by using a phase retrieval algorithm and to show that it is possible to correct the aberrations with a spatial light modulator to optimize the focal spot.

  3. 27. Moving in the dark : Mathematics of complex pedestrian flows

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)

    Author : Meghashyam Veluvali; [2023]
    Keywords : Mathematical modelling of pedestrian dynamics; stochastic systems; evacuation time; random walk method; parabolic equation; finite difference method;

    Abstract : The field of mathematical modelling for pedestrian dynamics has attracted significant scientific attention, with various models proposed from perspectives such as kinetic theory, statistical mechanics, game theory and partial differential equations. Often such investigations are seen as being a part of a new branch of study in the domain of applied physics, called sociophysics. READ MORE

  4. 28. The role of gap junctions in coordination of intercellular Ca2+ signaling

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Emma Latron; [2023]
    Keywords : applied physics; biophysics; Calcium; MDCKII; Gap Junctions; signalling; Segmentation; Tillämpad fysik; Biofysik; Kalcium; MDCKII; Gap Junctions; signalering; segmentering;

    Abstract : Calcium ions are one of the most versatile signalling molecules. They are essential tothe proper functioning of various cellular processes in many different types of cells.The calcium signals have been studied in the past using ratiometric dyes like Fura-2. READ MORE

  5. 29. Beyond the Gross-Pitaevskii Equation: A Perturbative Approach

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Teknisk fysik (CI)

    Author : Anton Johansson; [2023]
    Keywords : Gross-Pitaevskii; Beyond mean-field; Many-body Perturbation Theory; Bose-Einstein Condensate; BEC; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : We propose and implement a beyond Gross-Pitaevskii approach based on Many-Body Perturbation theory (MBPT) for the study of Bose-Einstein Condensate (BECs) ground states. Two partitions of the system Hamiltonian are considered. READ MORE

  6. 30. Investigating a possible dearth of stars with zero angular momentum in the solar neighbourhood.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Aayush Desai; [2023]
    Keywords : Galaxy: disk; Galaxy: fundamental parameters; Galaxy: kinematics and dynamics; Galaxy: nucleus; solar neighborhood; stars: kinematics and dynamics; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Background. Carlberg & Innanen (1987) first proposed the idea of measuring the solar re- flex velocity (the velocity of the Sun around the galactic centre), Vg,⊙, using the momenta of the stars in the solar neighbourhood. The proposal was a consequence of the work of L. READ MORE
