    Abstract : A network of functionalist buildings and stadiums was originally designed for the 1940 Olympic games in Helsinki. Among these structures was the Rowing Stadium, which hosted the kayaking competition in 1952 after the games were postponed due to World War II. (Malmberg et al. READ MORE

    Abstract : 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

  4. 4. Analysis of Atmospheric Muon Bundles with IceCube

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Author : Anna Selina Neyer; [2024]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This work is a preliminary study of the background of a search for dark, long-lived particles in the IceCube detector. The high flux of atmospheric muons in IceCube is considered background to the detector's primary science goal, which is to detect astrophysical neutrinos through the emission of Cherenkov radiation.

  5. 5. Studying gene expression scaling with cell size in Arabidopsis thaliana : the role of the nuclear RNA exosome complex

    University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Plant Biology

    Author : Emily Tåhlin; [2024]
    Keywords : RNA; transcription; cell size; smFISH; Arabidopsis thaliana;

    Abstract : The scaling of organ size with body size - known as morphological allometry - is a fundamental mechanism observed in all organisms (Mirth et al. 2016). READ MORE
