1. 26. Exploring the Use of Graphene as a Target Material for Laser Plasma Ion Acceleration

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

   Author : Hannes Pahl; [2017]
   Keywords : Laser Plasma Acceleration; Target Material; Graphene; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : The interaction of a solid target with an ultra-high intensity laser pulse can result in the laser plasma acceleration of ions. The recent proposal of a new laser plasma ion acceleration scheme, named chirped standing wave acceleration, has created interest in a new class of ultra-thin solid target materials, either freestanding or as a part of novel compound targets.

3. 27. Examining the impact of driving factors of Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions using the STIRPAT model: The case of Ethiopia

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen

   Author : Gebremariam Natnael Demeke; [2016]
   Keywords : Carbon dioxide emission; energy; population; efficiency; STIRPAT method; Social Sciences; Business and Economics;

   Abstract : This paper analyzes the impact of population growth, GDP per capita and technological improvement on Ethiopia’s carbon dioxide emission in the period 1971-2011. Using a STIRPAT model and Auto Regressive Distributive Lag (ARDL) l to analyze this impact, the study found that the highly growing population of Ethiopia has the greatest impact on carbon dioxide emission.

4. 28. Driving a Green Economy through Carbon Taxation? Learning from the Nordic Experience

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

   Author : Moa Forstorp; [2015]
   Keywords : Green economy; carbon taxation; Nordic environmental policy; carbon risk management; deep emission cuts; Social Sciences;

   Abstract : Carbon taxation can be a crucial policy to transform towards a greener economy, which was identified as a key strategy to achieve sustainable development at the United Nations Conference for Sustainable Development (UNCSD) in 2012. As more countries consider the introduction of carbon taxation and other carbon pricing mechanisms, it’s relevant to learn from the experiences in Nordic countries, which have had carbon taxation in place since the early 1990’s.

5. 29. Short and Long Term Analysis of Energy Consumption, Energy Intensity and Carbon Intensity in China

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionen

   Author : Rene De Brouwer; [2014]
   Keywords : China Energy Carbon CO2 Intensity; Business and Economics;

   Abstract : This paper aims to determine the short and long term determinants of carbon intensity, energy intensity and scale effects for China, with data on the provincial level from 1995 to 2010. The results show that measures which are taken to limit carbon emission increase with carbon intensity on the long run. READ MORE

6. 30. Dynamic pricing and carbon intensity in demand response functions

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Energisystem; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska högskolan

   Author : Oskar Ekman; [2014]
   Keywords : Smart grids; demand response; price and CO2-signals; Stockholm Royal Seaport; average emissions; marginal emissions; carbon intensity.;

   Abstract : The European power sector is facing significant challenges related to investments in grid infrastructure and generation capacity. The continued deployment of intermittent renewables also puts pressure on current grid conditions. READ MORE
