  1. 21. Cosmological implications of a QCD-like composite Higgs model

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Hristina Georgieva Hristova; [2021]
    Keywords : composite Higgs; technicolor; gravitational waves; LISA; phase transition; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Some of the shortcomings of the Standard Model of particle physics are the 'unnatural' value of the mass of the Higgs boson and the fact that the model cannot account for the process of baryogenesis - a mechanism which generates the observed asymmetry between matter and anti-matter in the Universe. The former is related to the fundamental scalar nature of the Higgs boson, connected to quadratic divergences in the mass corrections. READ MORE

  3. 22. Transition towards plant-based dairy substitutes : An exploratory study on the driving forces and the windows of opportunity for startups

    University essay from KTH/Industriell ekonomi och organisation (Inst.)

    Author : Nishapa Chowpradith; Kevin Kullgren; [2021]
    Keywords : Plant-based Dairy Substitutes; Sustainable Food Startups; Sustainability Transitions; Business Model Innovation; Multi-level Perspective; Växtbaserade Mejeri-substitut; Hållbara Startups; Hållbarhets-övergångar; Business Model Innovation; Multi-level Perspective;

    Abstract : A radical shift in consumption and production of food is necessary to combat climate change. This has sparked interest in diets and their implications on the environment, both among researchers and among consumers. Plant-based dairy substitutes is one field of products that is experiencing significant growth. READ MORE

  4. 23. Towards the Formation of the Antihydrogen Molecular Ion

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Fysikum

    Author : Thomas Nerdi; [2020]
    Keywords : Antihydrogen; Resonance Scattering; Non-Hermitian Quantum Mechanics;

    Abstract : The ALPHA experiment at CERN is an ongoing project which tests fundamental symmetries between matter and antimatter by producing and trapping antihydrogen atoms in order to perform precision spectroscopic measurements. A logical next step is to form the antihydrogen molecular ion (consisting of one positron and two antiprotons). READ MORE

  5. 24. Collaborative decision-making in green and blue infrastructure projects : The case of Copenhagen’s Hans Tavsens Park and Korsgade

    University essay from KTH/Urbana och regionala studier

    Author : Jamie Zouras; [2020]
    Keywords : Green and blue infrastructure; adaptive governance; collaborative decision-making; community involvement; social-ecological resilience; urban sustainable transitions; climate change adaptation;

    Abstract : Worsening climate change impacts, particularly in coastal areas, are forcing urban planners and designers to find new approaches to govern cities. Traditional government approaches are failing to equip cities with effective strategies on how to implement sustainable interventions such as green and blue infrastructure. READ MORE

  6. 25. The Technical Innovation System of Self-Driving Vehicles in Road Freight Transport : Towards an understanding of Actor Dynamics, Sustainability Outcomes & New Competencies

    University essay from KTH/Lärande

    Author : Anna Björkman; Yuri Joelsson; [2019]
    Keywords : SDV; Node-to-node; Freight transport; TIS; Sustainability; Knowledge; Competencies; Självkörande lastbilar; Nod-till-nod; Godstransport; TIS; Hållbarhet; Kunskap; Kompetens;

    Abstract : Over the last decade, advancements in connectivity, driving automation technology and electrification in combination with changing customer demands have started to rapidly transform the way in which goods are being transported. Following this fast rate of development, self-driving vehicles (SDVs) in road freight transport are anticipated to operate on public streets within the next couple of decades. READ MORE
