  1. 1. Uranium nitride synthesis by gas/gas reaction of UF6 and NH3

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Serena Ambrosino; [2024]
    Keywords : Uranium nitride; synthesis; ammonolysis; uranium hexafluoride; uranium tetrafluoride; ammonia; X-ray diffraction; microscopy; Urannitrid; syntes; ammonolys; uranhexafluorid; urantetrafluorid; ammoniak; röntgendiffraktion; mikroskopi;

    Abstract : This thesis project aims to develop an innovative technique for the production of high-purity uranium nitride (UN) through the ammonolysis of fluorides. The desired objective is to perform a controlled gas/gas reaction between uranium hexafluoride (UF6) and ammonia (NH3) at 800°C. READ MORE

  3. 2. Machine learning for molecular property prediction and drug safety

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för data- och informationsteknik

    Author : Kinga Jenei; [2023-10-23]
    Keywords : Molecular property prediction; Acid dissociation constant; pKa; Machine learning; Graph Neural Networks; Molecular descriptors; Drug Discovery;

    Abstract : Utilizing machine learning methods for the prediction of acid dissociation (pKa ) values of compounds holds great significance, as pKa is an important parameter, optimized frequently in drug discovery. Accurate prediction of pKa values could potentially provide valuable insights on other molecular properties and thereby support compound design. READ MORE

  4. 3. Going To Bed Now: Dissociation Feminism and Implicit Critique in My Year of Rest and Relaxation

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Engelska institutionen

    Author : Jonathan Bäckström; [2023]
    Keywords : Docile body; The Culture Industry; Dissociation Feminism; Femcel; Sedation; My Year of Rest and Relaxation; Ottessa Moshfegh;

    Abstract : The purpose of this essay is to examine how the novel My Year of Rest and Relaxation (2018 / 2019) by Ottessa Moshfegh, through the lens of dissociative feminism, can be interpreted as a critique regarding commodification of the body. To explore this claim, I discuss the protagonist’s dissociative feminist behaviour in contrast to her friend Reva’s femcel-behaviour. READ MORE

  5. 4. The grass is always tastier on the fruitful side : exploring the potentials, opportunities and challenges of urban food production: a case study of Uppsala

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural Development

    Author : Sanaz Kalantari; Rana Toprak; [2023]
    Keywords : Urbanization; grass lawns; urban agriculture; food production; Uppsala; Ultuna Permakultur; municipal sector; planning; establishing; management; ecosystems; human-nature connectedness; extinction of experience; top-down; bottom-up; landscape architecture;

    Abstract : Urbanization has globally led to economic and infrastructural growth but has also resulted in environmental degradation, decreased access to fertile agricultural land, increased food demand, and fragmentation of essential ecosystems. These challenges are prevalent in Swedish cities, including Uppsala, where green spaces are predominantly covered by lawns. READ MORE

  6. 5. A Quantum Chemical Investigation of Chemical Vapour Deposition of Fe using Ferrocene and Plasma Electrons

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Kemi

    Author : Felicia Andersson; [2023]
    Keywords : Quantum chemistry; Ferrocene; Silver; Ag 111 ; Plasma electrons; Surface chemistry; Electronic structure; DFT; Kvantkemi; Ferrocen; Silver; Ag 111 ; Plasmaelektroner; Ytkemi; Elektronstruktur; DFT;

    Abstract : Thin films provide a remarkable asset, as depositing a thin surface layer can completely alter a material’s characteristics and provide new, inexpensive, and valuable properties. In 2020, a new Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD) approach was developed at Linköping University, using plasma electrons as reducing agents for the deposition of metallic thin films. READ MORE
