  1. 11. Nuclear Structure near the Proton Drip-line: A Search for Excited States in 62Ge

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

    Author : Dalia Farghaly; [2022]
    Keywords : nuclear physics; nuclear structure; proton drip-line; excited states; germanium; fusion-evaporation reaction; experimental nuclear physics; gamma sphere; gamma spectroscopy; HPGe detectors; data analysis; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : An experiment to study mirror symmetry in the mass A = 60 region was performed at the Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) in 2020. The fusion-evaporation reaction 40Ca + 24Mg → 64Ge* at a beam energy of 106 MeV was used to populate excited states in 62Ge. READ MORE

  3. 12. Challenges and Strategies in Physics Laboratory Work : For Teachers in Swedish Upper Secondary School

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Fysikundervisningens didaktik

    Author : Emma Söderström; [2022]
    Keywords : physics; laboratory; labs; challenges; strategies; fysik; laborativt; labbar; utmaningar; strategier;

    Abstract : Experimental laboratory work is expected to improve learning in physics education. Considering this, many studies focus on the impact of experimental laboratory activities on students’ learning and on what factors may affect the efficiency of laboratory work. READ MORE

  4. 13. LISA’s Phasemeter Structural-Thermal Model test campaign and computational model calibration

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Richard Johansson; [2022]
    Keywords : Richard Johansson; LISA;

    Abstract : This work aims to plan, prepare and perform a test campaign of the Back-End Electronics(BEE) module in the phasemeter instrument on board the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna(LISA). Results from the test are analyzed to thermally characterize the BEE module as wellto evaluate how successfully an aluminum enclosure mounted on the BEE can dissipate heatloads from the BEE.

  5. 14. Digitised charged-particle discrimination in CsI detector signals

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

    Author : Mats Bror Linus Persson; [2022]
    Keywords : Microball; Gammasphere; pulse-shape discrimination; scintillator; charge-comparison method; cosine similarity; exotic nuclei; fusion-evaporation reaction; Argonne National Laboratory; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This work is aimed at improving the discrimination of protons and α particles in digitised signals from CsI(Tl) scintillators. This has been achieved using pulse-shape discrimination, wherein the shape of the pulses is used to learn which particle is detected. READ MORE

  6. 15. Thermal neutron counting and gamma-ray peak identification from fusion reactions, using a Sodern Genie-16 Neutron Generator

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

    Author : Auden Ti; [2022]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This thesis work focuses on the categorisation of a Sodern Genie-16 Neutron Generator, at the Nuclear Applications Laboratory, Lund University. To that end, the goals of this work focuses on the re-development of the pre-existing infrastructure surrounding the Sodern Genie-16 Neutron Generator for the purposes of internally irradiating samples, and the subsequent categorisation of the new configuration for extraction of fast neutrons.
