1. Gravitational Collapse of a Massless Scalar Field in a Theory of Minimally Modified Gravity
University essay from KTH/FysikAbstract : This thesis explores the spherically symmetric gravitational collapse of a massless scalar field in a minimally modified gravity theory denoted VCDM (V replaces $\Lambda$ in the $\Lambda$CDM abbreviation), a class of theories propagating the same degrees of freedom as general relativity at the expense of broken 4D diffeomorphism invariance. Numerical evolution of the equations of motion reveals that for small initial scalar profile amplitudes, no black hole forms from the collapse. READ MORE

2. A Structural Analysis of the Fracture Sets in Gothenburg, Sweden: A Remote Sensing and Manual Lineament Approach
University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperAbstract : The fracture-valley landscape within the Gothenburg region was analysed based on LiDAR-derived hillshade images as well as several sources of orthomosaics. Using a manual lineament interpretation approach and complimented with an objective fractal analysis software (FROST), the objective of the study was to characterise the regional fracture sets as well as attempt to link the sets to the complex regional geological history.

3. The Structural Architecture of the Barsele Area, Sweden : Characterising the deformation events and mineralisation
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurserAbstract : Located at an important intersect between orogenic Au deposits in Sweden’s Gold Line and volcanicmassive sulphide (VMS) deposits in the Skellefte Mining District, the Barsele area is of high interest.Currently, the Barsele deposit consists of the Norra VMS deposit and 3 intrusive-hosted orogenic Audeposits: Avan, Central, and Skiråsen which are hosted in a 1876 ± 10 Ma early orogenic granodiorite(Thomas, et al.

4. Feasibility of Enhanced Geothermal Systems in the Precambrian crystalline basement in SW Scania, Sweden
University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionenAbstract : The ability to evaluate the geothermal potential at a depth of five to six kilometres in the crystalline bedrock is crucial for the EGS-technology to be utilized in the future. This work focuses primarily on presenting expected geological conditions at great depths in southwestern Scania. The study is based on information from E. READ MORE

5. Kinetic interpretation of microstructures in the Gällivare area; implications for deformation phases and related metamorphic events.
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurserAbstract : The goal of this study was to identify and describe different microstructures observed in samples from two major shear zones in the Gällivare area, namely the Nautanen Deformation Zone (NDZ), and the Fjällåsen deformation zone (FDZ). Thirteen samples were examined during this study. READ MORE
