  1. 1. Gravitational perturbations in plasmas and cosmology

    Författare :Mats Forsberg; Gert Brodin; Michael Bradley; Christopher Clarkson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; general relativity; cosmology; gravitational waves; plasma; electromagnetic waves; nonlinear waves; Plasma physics; Plasmafysik; Theory of relativity; gravitation; Relativitetsteori; gravitation; Cosmology; Kosmologi; teoretisk fysik; Theoretical Physics;

    Sammanfattning : Gravitational perturbations can be in the form of scalars, vectors or tensors. This thesis focuses on the evolution of scalar perturbations in cosmology, and interactions between tensor perturbations, in the form of gravitational waves, and plasma waves. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Color-Kinematics Duality and Gravitational Waves

    Författare :Maor Ben-Shahar; Henrik Johansson; Jan Plefka; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Quantum field theory; gravitational waves; scattering amplitudes; Theoretical Philosophy; Teoretisk filosofi;

    Sammanfattning : Recent developments in theoretical physics have led to new insights for gauge theory and gravity scattering amplitudes.The color-kinematics duality, in particular, describes an intriguing set of identities obeyed by the kinematic numerators of gauge-theory scattering amplitudes, mirroring the Jacobi identity of the color factors.

  3. 3. Nonlinear interaction and propagation of gravitational and electromagnetic waves in plasmas

    Författare :Martin Servin; Gert Brodin; Lennart Stenflo; Demetrios Papadopoulos; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Theoretical physics; general relativity; plasma; gravitational waves; electromagnetic waves; nonlinear; wave interaction; wave propagation; Teoretisk fysik; Physics; Fysik; teoretisk fysik; Theoretical Physics;

    Sammanfattning : Gravitational waves and electromagnetic waves are important as carriers of energy and information. This thesis is devoted to the study of the propagation and interaction of these waves in plasmas, with emphasis on nonlinear effects and applications within astrophysics. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Excitations in Superfluids : From solitons to gravitational waves

    Författare :Alberto Cetoli; Emil Lundh; Luis Santos; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : In 1995 two different research groups observed for the first time the Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) in ultracold gases. When the confining magnetic trap was turned off the gas was left free to expand, and the velocity of the particles showed a clear peak: most of the particles were occupying the same single particle state, the one of lowest energy.

  5. 5. Gravitational waves from primordial magnetic sources

    Författare :Yutong He; Axel Brandenburg; David Weir; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : This licentiate thesis gives an overview of modified gravity and primordial magnetic fields,bridged by gravitational waves (GWs) as a phenomenological probe of both sectors.First we derive the GW equation in a homogeneous and isotropic background from general relativity. LÄS MER
