  1. 16. Assessment of the Capability for Vetoing Beta-Decay Events in the Lundium Decay Station

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

    Author : Tanvir Sayed; [2022]
    Keywords : Radioactivity; Decays; Radiation; Ionisation; Superheavies; Exotic isotopes; Decay spectroscopy; Semiconductors; Silicon-Strip Detectors; Lundium; Vetoing; Electron spread; Particle identification; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Alpha decay spectroscopy using the latest and most sensitive detector setup as well as fast sampling read-out electronics has become very important for discovery and analysis of short-lived nuclei created in collision experiments in the laboratory. The Nuclear Structure Group in Lund is currently developing the Lundium Decay Station for use in comprehensive nuclear spectroscopy of decays for rare isotopes, particularly in the heavy & superheavy region.

  2. 17. Improvement of the Rucio implementation for the LDCS platform and search for dark data

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

    Author : Piotr Yartsev; [2022]
    Keywords : Dark matter; rucio; digital infrastructure; Root; LDMX; LDCS; dark data; Python; CERN; particle physics; big data; Geant4; Light Dark Matter eXperiment; Lightweight Distributed Computing System; data storage; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this work we aim to implement a software package to detect and categorize dark data, data not accessible or not known by the user, generated in the simulations of the Light Dark Matter eXperiment (LDMX). This will involve studying current existing solutions for such problems, attempting to implement them for the Lightweight Distributed Computing System (LDCS), and developing our own Dark Data Search (DDS) toolkit to perform the detection and categorization of the dark data.

  3. 18. Calculation of neutron scattering libraries for liquid ortho-deuterium and hydrogen deuteride

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

    Author : Alexander Huusko; [2022]
    Keywords : PIMD; NJOY; HD; D2; HighNESS; ESS; RPMD; TSL; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The European Spallation Source (ESS) has launched a project called HighNESS, with the task of investigating the potential of adding a second moderator system to the facility, with ortho-deuterium (o-D2) being the main material of interest. Another moderator material which could be of interest is hydrogen deuteride (HD). READ MORE

  4. 19. Understanding Rt using two-particle correlations by simulating proton-proton collisions in a Monte-Carlo model

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

    Author : Johan Leygonie; [2021]

    Abstract : The observable Rt is investigated in the Monte Carlo Model Pythia in order to better understand results from experimental data obtained in the ALICE detector at CERN. The purpose is to reproduce the experiment in a simulation and use the features proposed by Pythia to dig into the unexpected outcomes. READ MORE

  5. 20. X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy on Clusters: From Water Clusters to Metal & Metal-Oxide Nanoparticles

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