  1. 1. Quantum Optical Description of High-order Harmonic Generation

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

    Author : Isabel Moreno; [2024]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : High-order Harmonic Generation (HHG) is a highly non-linear process in which an atom interacts with a strong laser field. The laser field lowers the atomic potential barrier allowing bound electrons to escape into the continuum through tunnel ionization, propagate, and, with some probability, recombine with the parent ion.

  2. 2. The impact of metallic cranial implants on proton-beam radiotherapy treatment plans for near implant located tumours : A phantom study on the physical effects and agreement between simulated treatment plans and the resulting treatment for near implant located cranial tumours

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Adam Sjögren; [2018]
    Keywords : Proton-based Radiotherapy; Cranial implants; Titanium implants; Cancer treatment; metal streak artifacts.;

    Abstract : Within the field of radiotherapy treatments of tumour diseases, the hunt for more accurate and effective treatment methods is a continuous process. For some years ion-beam based radiotherapy, especially the proton-beam based applications, has increased in popularity and availability. READ MORE

  3. 3. Studies on Radiation-induced Defects in InP/InAsP Nanowire-based Quantum Disc-in wire Photodetectors

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för informationsteknologi

    Author : Ebrahim Mansouri; [2018]
    Keywords : InP InAsP; QDiscs-in-wire; photodetectors; proton irradiation; Photocurrent; I-V characteristics;

    Abstract : Photodetectors are used in many applications such as digital and thermal cameras or in solar panels. They can also be designed to detect the omnipresent high-energy radiation/particles, and for radiation imaging in biomedical applications. READ MORE

  4. 4. Investigation of phase conjugation for medical imaging

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

    Author : Ivan Sytcevich; [2017]
    Keywords : Phase conjugation; Ultrasound Optical Tomography; Rare-Earth-Doped Crystals.; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : With the development of extremely precise spectral filters based on spectral hole burning and slow light effects, the idea of their implementation in an Ultrasound Optical Tomography (UOT) medical imaging technique arose. Simulations have shown that the resulting Contrast-to-Noise (CNR) ratio is fairly good at depths up to 5 cm but decreases dramatically when probing deeper in tissue. READ MORE

  5. 5. Radiochromic Film Dosimetry in Kilovoltage X-­‐ray Beams: A Pre-­‐ Investigation for In Vitro Studies of Bystander Effects

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen; Lunds universitet/Medicinsk strålningsfysik, Lund

    Author : Zeinab Hossein; [2015]
    Keywords : Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : Purpose Intensity modulation of radiation is one of several important conditions to evaluate for full understanding of how cells involved in the bystander effect influence each other when cells are exposed to radiation at low and high dose rates. The aim of this study was to develop and apply a useful and practical dosimetric method for measurement of the absorbed dose to cell cultures exposed to intensity modulated radiation in investigations of the bystander effects.
