1. 1. An Introduction to Hitchin Systems

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik LTH; Lunds universitet/Matematik (naturvetenskapliga fakulteten); Lunds universitet/Matematikcentrum

   Author : Manuel Neumayer; [2023]
   Keywords : Mathematics and Statistics;

   Abstract : This thesis aims to introduce the tools that are needed to understand — and historically led to the inception of — Hitchin systems. We lay out a basic theory of Hamiltonian systems on symplectic manifolds, and prove the Liouville-Arnold theorem, which states that integrable Hamiltonian systems admit coordinates in which their solution is basically linear.

3. 2. STANDARDIZED ORGAN AT RISK VOLUME FOR EXTERNAL BEAM RADIATION THERAPY IN PROSTATE CANCER AND ITS RELATIONSHIP TO VOLUMES DEFINED BY CLINICAL PRACTICE

   University essay from

   Author : Dang Thao; [2022-01-13]
   Keywords : Medical physics; Radiation therapy; Prostate cancer; Organs at risk;

   Abstract : Background/ Purpose: In radiation therapy (RT), the radiation dose calculated in tumours and normal tissue depends on how the volumes are defined. It is difficult to standardize how tumour volumes should be defined because their anatomical extension can differ greatly between individuals. READ MORE

4. 3. AGN Candidates for High Energy Neutrino Emission in IceCube

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

   Author : Roisín O'Rourke Brogan; [2020]
   Keywords : active galactic nuclei; agn; high energy physics; neutrinos; IceCube; blazars; jets; gamma emission;

   Abstract : Since the construction of the IceCube Neutrino Observatory was completed in 2010, many amazing discoveries have been made in the field of neutrino physics. Recently a neutrino event has been linked to an blazar-type active galactic nucleus source, bringing us one step closer to understanding the production of high-energy extragalactic neutrinos and ushering in a new era of multimessenger astronomy.

5. 4. High resolution imaging observations of exoplanet host stars

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation

   Author : Kaltrina Kajtazi; [2020]
   Keywords : Speckle imaging; Speckle interferometry; High resolution imaging; Short integration time; Binaries; Exoplant hosts; Stellar properties; WIYN; Gemini; Orbital period; Physical separation; Angular separation; magnitude difference; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : This is a thesis project, analysing data from high-resolution imaging observations, specifically speckle imaging, as a follow up study of exoplanet host stars observed with K2, the second operational phase of the space telescope Kepler. The project was accomplished at NASA Ames research center under the guidance of Rachel A. READ MORE

6. 5. The Solar System Around a Binary Star

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation

   Author : Jesper Nielsen; [2019]
   Keywords : planetary system stability; binary star; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : The observations of circumbinary planets have confirmed that these can in fact be stable. While previous studies on circumbinary planets have been done, not many have been made on systems containing multiple circumbinary planets on eccentric orbits. READ MORE
