  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

  2. 2. Flow of charged particles in Pb-Pb and pp collisions at the LHC

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

    Author : Mohamed Berkat; [2024]
    Keywords : Quark Gluon Plasma; QGP; Quantum Chromodynamic; QCD; flow coefficients; Event Plane; Cumulants; ALICE; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the transition of Quantum Chromodynamic (QCD) matter to a strongly interacting Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP), where quarks and gluons become deconfined. The expansion of this plasma exhibits characteristics of an ideal relativistic hydrodynamics system, suggesting a behavior similar to that of a perfect fluid. READ MORE

  3. 3. 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.

  4. 4. Defining dark jets at the particle level

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

    Author : Gustav Lindberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Particle physics; Dark matter; QCD; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : One hypothesis that attempts to explain dark matter is dark QCD, which suggests that there would be a dark sector made up of dark quarks. Dark quarks would interact with each other through dark QCD similar to how Standard Model quarks interact with each other through Standard Model QCD. READ MORE

  5. 5. Enhancing Geophysical Applications with Electrical Resistivity Tomography Inversion : Uncovering the mysteries that lies beneath us

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Anton Morian; [2023]
    Keywords : Resistivity inversion; Filtering; 3D visualisation;

    Abstract : Geophysical methods have been widely used to investigate the subsurface in various ap-plications, such as mineral exploration, geotechnical and environmental studies. Among these methods, electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) has gained popularity due to its non-invasive and high-resolution capability in mapping subsurface resistivity variations. READ MORE
