  1. 1. A Machine Learning Approach on Analysis of Emission Spectra for Application in XFEL Experiments

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

    Author : Harald Agelii; [2023]
    Keywords : Structural biology; Machine learning; Neural networks; emission spectrum; XFEL; X-ray free electron laser; SFX; Serial femtosecond X-ray crystallography; Proteins; Diagnostics;

    Abstract : In this thesis we investigate two potential applications of machine learning in the context of X-ray imaging and spectroscopy of biological samples, particularly such using X-ray free electron lasers (XFEL). We first investigate the possibility of using an emission spectrum, recorded from a sample after being probed by an incident X-ray, as a diagnostic tool. READ MORE

  2. 2. Defining dark jets at the particle level

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

    Author : Gustav Lindberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Particle physics; Dark matter; QCD; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : One hypothesis that attempts to explain dark matter is dark QCD, which suggests that there would be a dark sector made up of dark quarks. Dark quarks would interact with each other through dark QCD similar to how Standard Model quarks interact with each other through Standard Model QCD. READ MORE

  3. 3. Terminating Apartheid's Atomic Bomb

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Author : Oskar Hedman; [2023]
    Keywords : South Africa; Nuclear Disarmament; Tripart Accord; Frederik de Klerk; Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty; Law and Political Science;

    Abstract : South Africa secretly produced six and a half nuclear weapons from 1978-1989 before undertaking a complete nuclear disarmament between 1989-1991; it is the only instance in history of when a state has discarded an indigenously developed nuclear arsenal and presents a unique case for studying the nuclear decision-making of states. This thesis is a theory-testing case study where I, by conducting a qualitative content analysis of previous research on South Africa’s nuclear rollback, examine how well Scott D Sagan’s nuclear policy model can explain the nuclear disarmament of South Africa.

  4. 4. From AEC to NRC: A Paradigm Shift in U.S. Nuclear Energy Regulation and its Consequences for the Industry

    University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomi

    Author : Benjamin Leopardo; [2023]
    Keywords : regulation; nuclear energy; energy economics; industrial organization; synthetic control;

    Abstract : Concerns over energy security and climate change are pushing countries to reconsider their stances on nuclear energy and plan new buildouts. The success of nuclear energy has historically varied greatly, depending to a great extent on the legal and regulatory environment. READ MORE

  5. 5. The solar abundance of beryllium : constraining the solar problem via non-LTE modelling

    University essay from

    Author : Daria Ogneva; [2023]
    Keywords : atomic processes; radiative transfer; abundance;

    Abstract : Accurately determining the solar abundance of beryllium is a key to calibrate transport processes at the base of convective zone, which in turn is an improvement upon existing solar models and general understanding of the physical processes within the Sun. To determine an abundance, assumptions about the solar atmosphere must be made. READ MORE
