  1. 11. Measuring copper abundances in the Galactic Bulge

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

    Author : Nikolei Höglinger; [2024]
    Keywords : Copper; Galaxy: abundances; Galaxy: bulge; Chemical Evolution; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Context: The chemical evolution of Cu in the Galactic bulge have been studied in a few studies using red giant branch stars, but the ages of individual red giant stars are difficult to determine. In addition, the bulge has been a challenging region of the Milky Way galaxy to obtain high-resolution spectra of stars, except when observing through certain few small fields into the bulge that are known to have low extinction.

  3. 12. Effective soil organic carbon monitoring in perennial agriculture systems - Sampling protocol development and evaluation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Maja Holm; [2024]
    Keywords : Physical geography; ecosystem science; soil organic carbon; soil sampling; perennial crops; carbon sequestration; carbon farming; Kernza™; soil organic carbon stock; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Perennial agriculture systems are gaining ground as a more sustainable alternative to conventional annual agriculture, partly for their potential to increase the soil organic carbon (SOC) content. Carbon farming is another hot topic for SOC sequestration, as it creates economic incentives for farmers. READ MORE

  4. 13. Estimating Diffusion Tensor Distributions With Neural Networks

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Algebra, geometri och diskret matematik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Rimaz Nismi; [2024]
    Keywords : Diffusion; Magnetic Resonance Imaging; MRI; Neural Networks; Optimal transport; Earth mover s distance; Sinkhorn distance;

    Abstract : Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is an essential healthcare technology, with diffusion MRI being a specialized technique. Diffusion MRI exploits the inherent diffusion of water molecules within the human body to produce a high-resolution tissue image. An MRI image contains information about a 3D volume in space, composed of 3D units called voxels. READ MORE

  5. 14. Colonialism in The Expanse : A study of otherness, diaspora, and language in The Expanse

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för språk (SPR)

    Author : Ida Sundberg; [2024]
    Keywords : science fiction; postcolonialism; The Expanse; the Other; creole; diaspora;

    Abstract : This essay examined postcolonialism in the first two novels in The Expanse series, Leviathan Wakes and Caliban’s War. Using otherness, creole language, and diaspora, this essay argued that The Expanse used three groups to demonstrate postcolonialism, showing that the Belters are the oppressed group and Earth oppressors.

  6. 15. Satellite signal attenuation due to atmospheric influences in northern Sweden

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Adrian Stigsson; [2024]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Earth-space traversing electromagnetic waves become attenuated as they propagate through the atmosphere. The sources of attenuation are weather phenomena in the Troposphere, and scintillation and absorption in the Ionosphere. READ MORE
