  1. 1. Atomic Structure Calculations Using Configuration-Interaction And Many-Body Perturbation Theory For Spectral Modelling Of Neutron Star Mergers : Example Of Ce I - Iv

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

    Author : Fredrik Plane; [2023]
    Keywords : Computational atomic physics; Atomic physics; Physics; Astronomy; Astrophysics; Neutron stars; Stars; Relativisitc atomic physics; Configuration-interaction; Perturbation theory; Many-body perturbation theory;

    Abstract : The binary neutron star merger of 2017 and its corresponding electromagnetic signature resembling that of a kilonova has been one of the most groundbreaking astrophysical occurrences in the last decade. Indications of r-process nucleosynthesis in this event presents new opportunities for learning about the astrophysical origin of heavy elements. READ MORE

  3. 2. Beyond the Gross-Pitaevskii Equation: A Perturbative Approach

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Teknisk fysik (CI)

    Author : Anton Johansson; [2023]
    Keywords : Gross-Pitaevskii; Beyond mean-field; Many-body Perturbation Theory; Bose-Einstein Condensate; BEC; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : We propose and implement a beyond Gross-Pitaevskii approach based on Many-Body Perturbation theory (MBPT) for the study of Bose-Einstein Condensate (BECs) ground states. Two partitions of the system Hamiltonian are considered. READ MORE

  4. 3. Full Configuration Interaction Model for 1-D Quantum System

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

    Author : Adam Asaad; [2022]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The many-body problem is one of the most challenging problems in physics due to the complexity emerging from the interactions of many quantum particles. Since the advent of computers with increasing power, computational methods have been very successful in providing insight and precise solutions to this problem. READ MORE

  5. 4. Time-resolved x-ray diffraction study of longitudinal optical phonons in zincblende semiconductors

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

    Author : Lassi Linnala; [2022]
    Keywords : femtosecond THz radiation; ultrafast x-ray diffraction; pump-probe; longitudinal optical phonons; zincblende semiconductors; anharmonic decay; density functional perturbation theory; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Anharmonic decay of longitudinal optical (LO) phonons in zincblende semiconductors is not at present well characterized due to the polar and many-body nature of the problem. Femtosecond THz radiation offers a novel route to this study, as the interaction of this radiation is directly with the phonon lattice and these THz excited phonons do not have enough energy to excite electrons over the band gap.

  6. 5. Quantum Computing in Nuclear Physics

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

    Author : Luca Bernecker; [2022]
    Keywords : quantum computing; nuclear physics; qubits; theoretical physics; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this thesis, we investigate many–body systems using simulations of quan- tum computers. Quantum computing is a computational paradigm based on qubits which are defined in a Hilbert space instead of the familiar binary bits. READ MORE
