1. 1. Decay Chains of Fast Alpha Emitters in the Actinide Region

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

   Author : Tanvir Sayed; [2024]
   Keywords : alpha decay; alpha emissions; fine structure; decay chain; decay scheme; alpha spectrometry; actinide; nucleus; nuclear structure; nuclear states; energy levels; uranium isotopes; U310 experiment; parasitic runs; decay station; TASISpec ; moving window deconvolution; digitisers; alpha-gamma coincidence; 221-Th decay; fine structure of alpha decay to 217-Ra; GSI; Gamow s theory; Geiger-Nuttall; chain search; short half-lives; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : With the advent of increasingly advanced spectroscopic instruments after the turn of the century, it has become accessible to unravel the structure of instantly ‘vanishing’ nuclei, with lifetimes as short as 1 μs, and responsible for pile-up events in analog electronics. Experimental data has been recorded by the Nuclear Structure Group at Lund University for 48Ca/50Ti + nat. READ MORE

3. 2. Towards a setup for narrowband terahertz generation through difference-frequency mixing of chirped ultrashort pulses

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

   Author : Isa Clementsson; [2023]
   Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Terahertz radiation is a useful tool for inducing lower-energy excitations in matter, where it can be used to cause structural changes through direct interaction with the crystal lattice. Sub-picosecond optical pulses can be used to generate intense broadband terahertz pulses through optical rectification in nonlinear crystals, reaching peak electric fields of several MV/m and conversion efficiencies as high as a few percent.

4. 3. Optimization of Gammasphere Data Following the Nuclear Reaction 36Ar + 24Mg → 60Zn∗

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

   Author : Paul Böhm; [2023]
   Keywords : re-calibration; Gammasphere; 54Fe; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : The experiment at Argonne National Laboratory aimed to study the fusion-evaporation reaction following the collision of a high-energy particle beam of 36Ar with a stationary target of 24Mg. This paper outlines the creation and implementation of an automated re-calibration procedure for the high-purity Germanium detectors comprising the Gammasphere array used for γ-ray spectroscopy in this experiment.

5. 4. Measurement & Feedback Control of a Two Level System

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Sayan Ali Khan; [2022]
   Keywords : Quantum Measurement; Generalized Measurements; POVM Positive Operator Valued Measure ; Feedback Control; Two-Level System; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : In this bachelor project, the main objective is to investigate how a two-level quantum system can be controlled using weak continuous measurements and feedback control. The Monte-Carlo method was used to simulate the system dynamics under measurement and feedback to investigate how the system state can be controlled. READ MORE

6. 5. Computational modelling of photosynthetic excitons coupled to a microcavity

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

   Author : Ilmari Turunen; [2022]
   Keywords : Cavity QED; LH2; Chlorophyll; Exciton; Polariton; Transition dipole moment; Absorbance; Physics and Astronomy; Chemistry; Biology and Life Sciences;

   Abstract : Cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) is a theory that is used for describing the interaction between matter and cavity modes. Not until relatively recently, cavity QED has been extended to the study of photosynthetic light-harvesting complexes (LHCs). READ MORE
