  1. 1. Misalignment effects on the physics performance of the inner tracker upgrade at the ALICE experiment

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

    Author : Jesper Karlsson Gumprecht; [2024]
    Keywords : ALICE; ITS; ITS2; ITS3; O2; O2Physics; Distortion; Misalignment; Alignment; Realignment; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the physics performance of an approved inner tracker upgrade of the ALICE experiment involving a novel and ultra-thin silicon detector with a cylindrical geometry. During the thesis work, a method was developed in simulations to induce distortions to the detector’s geometry, and the resulting loss in physics performance was evaluated. READ MORE

  3. 2. Real-Time System Benchmarking with Embedded Linux and RT Linux on a Multi-Core Hardware Platform

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Kian Hosseini; [2024]
    Keywords : Real-time; Embedded systems; Benchmarking; Multicore;

    Abstract : To catch up with the growing trend of parallelism, this thesis work focuses on the adaption of embedded real-time systems to a multicore platform. We use the embedded system of Xilinx ZCU-102, a multicore board, as an example of an embedded system without getting deep into its architecture. READ MORE

  4. 3. Local voltage control in a low voltage grid with high photovoltaic penetration

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Joakim Bakklund; [2024]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis examines how active power control (Volt-Watt control) and reactive power compensation (Volt-VAr control) can help limit voltage increases on the low voltage grid due to high photovoltaic (PV), installations. Due to the large increase in interest to install small scale PV-systems within residential areas the Distribution System Operator E. READ MORE

  5. 4. Laser Metrology for assembly of ATLAS ITk-Strips

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

    Author : Jonathan Arvin; Johannes Berg Wallin; Hugo Eskner; Olof Lindman Jardfelt; [2023]
    Keywords : Laser metrology; ATLAS; Inner Tracker ITk ; Micro Epsilon;

    Abstract : The ATLAS detector at CERN's Large Hadron Collider has been instrumental in scientific discoveries,including the Higgs particle. As part of the High Luminosity (HL) upgrade, the current Inner Detector (ID) isbeing replaced by the new IInner Tracker (ITk), and Uppsala University is collaborating with industrypartner NOTE to produce around 700 modules for the ITk.

  6. 5. Design of a vacuum chamber for cathode testing and low power Hall Effect Thrusters : Collaborative project with OHB Sweden AB

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Andrea Martinez Sanz; [2023]
    Keywords : Vacuum chamber; adaptability; hollow cathode test; fluid ground support equipment; low power Hall Effect Thrusters test; Vakuumkammare; anpassningsförmåga; ihålig katod testa; flytande markstödutrustning; låg effekt Hall Effect Thrusters testa;

    Abstract : Testing of hardware to be used in space sometimes involves using vacuum chambers. The need to test hollow cathodes, used as neutralizers for some Electric Propulsion Thrusters, and low power Hall Effect Thrusters at OHB Sweden requires a vacuum chamber to be upgraded. READ MORE
