    Sammanfattning : The laser-induced incandescence technique (LII) is a laser-based diagnostic technique for measurements of soot volume fraction and particle size. The technique relies on detection of incandescent light from soot particles heated to around 4000 K using nanosecond laser pulses. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Pierced, Wrapped and Torn : Aspects of String Theory Compactifications

    Författare :Magdalena Larfors; Ulf Danielsson; Gary Shiu; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematical physics; Matematisk fysik; Theoretical Physics; teoretisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : An outstanding problem in physics is to find a unified framework for quantum mechanics and general relativity. This is required for a better understanding of black holes and the early cosmology of the universe. String theory provides such a unification. In this thesis, we study aspects of compactifications of type IIB string theory. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Aspects of the Duality between Supersymmetric Yang-Mills Theory and String Theory

    Författare :Daniel Bundzik; Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Matematisk och allmän teoretisk fysik; classical mechanics; quantum mechanics; relativity; gravitation; statistical physics; thermodynamics; Natural science; Naturvetenskap; Physics; Fysik; Mathematical and general theoretical physics; Star product; Leigh-Strassler deformation; R-matrix; Integrability; Spin-chains; Fractional D-branes; type IIB string theory; AdS CFT-correspondence; gauge gravity correspondence; kvantmekanik; klassisk mekanik; termodynamik; statistisk fysik; relativitet;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with three topics related to the Ads/CFT correspondence. In Paper I, solutions describing the geometry of fractional D1-branes of Type IIB string theory are presented. The running coupling constant is computed on the gauge theory side. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Making Maps and Keeping Logs : Quantum Gravity from Classical Viewpoints

    Författare :Niklas Johansson; Ulf Danielsson; Jan de Boer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; String theory; black holes in string theory; Calabi-Yau geometry; flux compactifications; three-dimensional gravity; Mathematical physics; Matematisk fysik; Theoretical Physics; teoretisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis explores three different aspects of quantum gravity. First we study D3-brane black holes in Calabi-Yau compactifications of type IIB string theory. Using the OSV conjecture and a relation between topological strings and matrix models we show that some black holes have a matrix model description. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Development and application of Muffin-Tin Orbital based Green’s function techniques to systems with magnetic and chemical disorder

    Författare :Andreas Kissavos; Igor Abrikosov; Hubert Ebert; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematical physics; Theoretical Physics; Muffin-Tin Orbital method; Calculations; Magnetism; Lloyd’s formula; Mathematical physics; Matematisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Accurate electronic structure calculations are becoming more and more important because of the increasing need for information about systems which are hard to perform experiments on. Databases compiled from theoretical results are also being used more than ever for applications, and the reliability of the theoretical methods are of utmost importance. LÄS MER
