1. ATLAS Calorimetry : Hadronic Calibration Studies
Sammanfattning : The ATLAS experiment -- situated at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva -- is on schedule to take its first collision data in 2009. Physics topics include finding the Higgs boson, heavy quark physics, and looking for extensions of the standard model such as supersymmetry. LÄS MER
2. Calorimetry under extreme conditions
Sammanfattning : This licentiate thesis presents developments of nanocalorimetry systems tailored for use under extreme conditions such as high pressure, intense magnetic fields, and low temperature. Nanocalorimetry is a powerful approach to study strongly correlated systems like superconductors, heavy fermions, and quantum materials with non-trivial magnetic or electronic properties, materials with emergent magnetic orders, as well as quasicrystals.

3. Early Hydration of Portland Cement
Sammanfattning : The production of cement is responsible forapproximately 7 % of the total CO2 emissions caused by man. To compensate for high energyconsumption and CO2 emission, thus making the utilization of concrete more sustainable,several strategies can be used. LÄS MER
4. Measurement of Self-Heating of Biomass Pellets using Isothermal Calorimetry
Sammanfattning : Self-heating in storage facilities of biomass pellet can lead to spontaneous combustion. This has resulted in many fires over the years, causing both financial and environmental losses.In order to assess the risk for spontaneous combustion of biomass pellets during storage, it is important to know how prone the fuel is to self-heating, i.e. LÄS MER
5. Mould on building materials - A calorimetric study of fungal activity as a function of environmental factors
Sammanfattning : Mould problems in buildings have become a growing concern during the past decades. The growth of mould fungi indoors deteriorates air quality, influences human health and causes economical losses. Preventing mould growth from occurring is a more cost effective option than cleaning and renovation of buildings with mould problems. LÄS MER
