1. 21. Characterization of a Bismuth germanate Anti-Compton Scattering Shield for use with a Germanium COMPEX detector module

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

   Author : Samuel Dawes; [2022]
   Keywords : COMPEX; Lundium; BGO; ACS; gamma-ray spectroscopy; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : The scope of this work is to help determine the functional improvement brought on by introducing a Bismuth germanate (BGO) Anti-Compton Scattering (ACS) shield system to a germanium COMPEX detector module. The COMPEX germanium detector module is already an extremely useful addition in examining gamma-ray spectroscopy. READ MORE

3. 22. Lactate as a signaling molecule : A potential role in controlling exercise induced adaptations in human skeletal muscle

   University essay from Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH/Institutionen för fysisk aktivitet och hälsa

   Author : Fabian Nordström; [2021]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Introduction The lactate molecule has a key role in human energy metabolism, particularly in skeletal muscle: acting as a buffer within the muscle cell enabling glycolysis to continue during high energy demand, as well as acting as an energy shuttle between cells. The lactate molecule has also lately been shown to act as a signaling molecule in non-human models acting as a signaling molecule regulating the transcriptional process, potentially controlling the expression of several important metabolic proteins.

4. 23. Measuring the vertical muon intensity with the ALTO prototype at Linnaeus University

   University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för fysik och elektroteknik (IFE)

   Author : Magnus Norén; [2021]
   Keywords : Muon Intensity; ALTO; CoMET; Cosmic Rays; VHE Gamma Rays; Extensive Air Shower; Water Cherenkov Detector; Scintillation Detector; Monte Carlo Simulation; GEANT4;

   Abstract : ALTO is a project, currently in the research and development phase, with the goal of constructing a Very High Energy (VHE) gamma-ray observatory in the southern hemisphere. It will detect the particle content reaching the ground from the interactions of either VHE gamma rays or cosmic rays in the atmosphere known as extensive air showers. READ MORE

5. 24. Constraints on the High-Energy Gamma-Ray Spectrum of Nearby Star-Forming Galaxies

   University essay from Stockholms universitet/Fysikum

   Author : Oskar Svenborn; [2021]
   Keywords : Gamma-ray emission; High-Energy astrophysics; Star-Forming Galaxies; Star formation; Cosmic rays; Fermi-LAT.;

   Abstract : The nature of high-energy gamma-ray emission from Star-Forming Galaxies is of utmost importance for understanding both the origin of Cosmic Rays and the high-energy processes that shape galaxy formation. Observations from the gamma-ray telescope Fermi-LAT have detected gamma-ray emission from a handful of nearby Star-Forming Galaxies. READ MORE

6. 25. Benchmark of the fission channels in TALYS

   University essay from

   Author : Fredrik Nordström; [2021]
   Keywords : Fission; Prompt neutrons; Prompt gamma-rays; Nuclear reaction codes; TALYS; GEF;

   Abstract : In this project, different fission models in the nuclear reaction code TALYS have been compared to GEF version 2020/1.2. The data included in the comparison are mass yield distributions, average prompt neutron energies per fragment mass, and average multiplicities of both neutrons and γ-rays per fragment mass. READ MORE
