1. 21. Stochastic Optimization of Asset Management Project Portfolios: A Risk-Informed Approach

   University essay from KTH/Matematik (Avd.)

   Author : Sebastian Persson; Niklas Hansson; [2023]
   Keywords : Nuclear asset management; Risk-informed asset management; Portfolio optimization; Project selection; Knapsack problem; Monte Carlo simulation; Conditional Value at Risk; Tillgångsförvaltning; Riskinformerad tillgångsförvaltning; Portföljoptimering; Projekturval; Kappsäcksproblem; Monte Carlo simulering; Conditional Value at Risk;

   Abstract : Asset management within the nuclear industry has become an increasingly relevant topic as safety requirements have tightened and energy security has become more important. Asset management ensures performance and reliability in a nuclear facility by balancing costs, opportunities, and risks to get the most out of assets. READ MORE

3. 22. Probing Strangeness Production in Proton-Proton Collisions with Three-Particle Correlations

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Melinda Petricean; [2023]
   Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Strangeness production in small systems such as proton-proton collisions is here investigated through the use of three-particle correlations in the momentum-space coordinates η and ϕ. This method is used in order to investigate possible correlation between conservation of both strangeness and baryon number, such that the particles chosen are Λ¯pK+ and the respective charge conjugates, where Λ is a strange baryon, p¯ balances: the Balance Function and the comparative restriction of relative positions for pairs of particles within given triplets.

4. 23. The European pressurized-water reactor between narratives and policies: exploring the French nuclear reactor design with a feasibility framework to assess wider implications for France and the EU

   University essay from Lunds universitet/LUCSUS

   Author : Simone Della Coletta; [2023]
   Keywords : EPR; nuclear; feasibility; narrative; policy; sustainability science; Social Sciences;

   Abstract : With fossil fuel-dependencies affecting energy generation, and renewables being contextually limited by intermittency and dispatchability issues, this work explores European Pressurized-water Reactors (EPRs) as a nuclear-based climate mitigation measure in France and in the EU. Through its conceptual framework, this paper evaluates the technical potential of EPRs through the gate-keeping effect of initiative feasibility and narrative analysis. READ MORE

5. 24. The Nuclear Dilemma : A Study on the Nuclear Energy Growth Nexus and Greenhouse Gas Emissions

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Nationalekonomi; Linköpings universitet/Filosofiska fakulteten

   Author : Pontus Karlsson; Felicia Uebel; [2023]
   Keywords : Economic Growth; Energy Growth Nexus; Nuclear Energy Growth Nexus; Econometrics; Economics; Nuclear Power; Nuclear Consumption; Energy Consumption; Energy Production; Environmental Kuznets Curve; Greenhouse Gas Emissions; IPI; Nuclear Dilemma; Granger Causality Test; Energy; Oil; Ekonomisk tillväxt; Energi-Tillväxt Sambandet; Kärnkraftsenergi-Tillväxt Sambandet; Ekonometri; Ekonomi; Kärnkraft; Kärnkraftskonsumtion; Energikonsumtion; Energiproduktion; Växthusgasutsläpp; Kärnkraftsdilemmat; Energi; Olja;

   Abstract : The relationship between energy consumption and economic growth has been a popular topic in recent studies, with a considerable amount of literature conducted, although there still is no consensus regarding the relationship. Few studies have analysed the nuclear energy growth nexus with greenhouse gas emissions, and none have used the same method, data, and sample period. READ MORE

6. 25. Characterisation of the LYCCA Double-Sided Silicon Strip Detectors

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik

   Author : Marwan Mohamed; [2023]
   Keywords : DSSD LYCCA HISPEC FAIR Characterisation; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : The goal of this thesis work is to describe the methods used and perform comprehensive testing of the Double-Sided Silicon-Strip Detectors (DSSD) prior to their implementation in the Lund-York-Cologne CAlorimeter (LYCCA) detector. In the framework of this project, the DSSD characterisation was carried out to ensure specification compliance prior to their "in-kind contribution" delivery to the HISPEC experiment at the NUSTAR collaboration.
