1. The black hole information paradox and holography
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysikAbstract : Hawking theorized in 1974 that black holes emit particles as a quantum effect. It follows from this fact that a black hole that emits particles while absorbing none ends up evaporating. The process of black hole evaporation studied from semiclassical gravity violates quantum mechanics leading to serious problems. READ MORE

2. The effect of disorder on the axial anomaly in a lattice model in 1 + 1 dimensions
University essay from KTH/FysikAbstract : This work investigates the effect of a disorder potential, that represents impurities/dislocations in the lattice, on the time-dependent signature of the axial anomaly in a one-band tight-binding model in one spatial dimension. The tight-binding model is solved numerically and the simulation results are compared with a semiclassical expression for the time-dependent axial density, n5(t), due to Nielsen and Ninomiya [1].

3. Comparing Quantum and Semi-Classical Approaches to Non-Collinear Magnetism in an Electron-Spin Dimer
University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Matematisk fysikAbstract : In this bachelor thesis, an explorative theoretical analysis is presented on a model system characterized by various and competing magnetic interactions. The system comprises two localized magnetic moments (spins), and a single itinerant electron that hops between two orbitals located at the spins’ positions. READ MORE

4. Microscopic and Macroscopic Samples of Atoms in Superposition States Studied by Attosecond Pulses
University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenAbstract : In the present thesis, the interaction between atoms in superposition states and attosecond pulses is studied from the microscopic to the macroscopic regime. Using a semi-classical framework, three different models have been explored in order to investigate attosecond light--matter interaction processes. READ MORE
