  1. 6. Extragalactic extinction and spectral properties of Type Ia supernovae

    Författare :Linda Östman; Ariel Goobar; Avishay Gal-Yam; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Type Ia supernovae; cosmology; spectroscopy; dust extinction; quasars; axions; Physics; Fysik; fysik; Physics;

    Sammanfattning : The use of Type Ia supernovae as standardisable candles for probing cosmological parameters with high precision requires good knowledge about how the supernova light is affected along the line of sight and how the intrinsic brightness varies between objects. The work in this thesis addresses these topics. LÄS MER

  2. 7. The Circumstellar Environment of Type Ia Supernovae

    Författare :Raphael Ferretti; Rahman Amanullah; Ariel Goobar; Josh Simon; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Type Ia supernovae; extinction; supernova cosmology; fysik; Physics;

    Sammanfattning : Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) have proven to be extremely useful for measuring cosmological distances and were used for the discovery of the accelerated expansion of the universe. Although thousands of SNe Ia have been observed to date, many questions surrounding the physics of the explosions and the nature of their progenitor systems remain unanswered. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Studies of declining populations - temporal genetic analyses of two arctic mammals

    Författare :Veronica Nyström; Anders Angerbjörn; Lisette Waits; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Vulpes lagopus; Mammuthus primigenius; population reduction; extinction; ancient DNA; mitochondrial DNA; microsatellites; genetic variation; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; zoologisk ekologi; Animal Ecology;

    Sammanfattning : Many populations and species are threatened with extinction today. Understanding the extinction process and the factors behind population decline is therefore important. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Population Dynamics and Conservation of the Sand Lizard (Lacerta agilis) on the Edge of its Range

    Författare :Sven-Åke Berglind; Pekka Pamilo; Per Sjögren-Gulve; Coulson Tim; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ecology; demography; extinction; habitat; Lacerta agilis; management; metapopulation; peripheral populations; population dynamics; population viability analysis; reintroduction; reptiles; umbrella species; Ekologi; Terrestrial; freshwater and marine ecology; Terrestisk; limnisk och marin ekologi;

    Sammanfattning : The sand lizard (Lacerta agilis) reaches the northern periphery of its distribution in south-central Sweden, where small, isolated relict populations occur in pine heath forests on sandy sediments. Modern forestry and fire suppression have reduced the amount of suitable open habitat for the species in this area and seem to be important for its decline. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Structured Laser Illumination Planar Imaging SLIPI Applications for Spray Diagnostics

    Författare :Elias Kristensson; Förbränningsfysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; signal attenuation; Multiple light scattering suppression; laser extinction; extinction coefficient; structured illumination; Fysicumarkivet A:2012:Kristensson;

    Sammanfattning : Laser sheet imaging, also known as planar laser imaging, is one of the most versatile optical imaging techniques known and is frequently applied in several different domains. It furthermore constitutes the basis for a variety of other 2D methods, in turn allowing visualization of e.g. velocity, particle size, species concentration and temperature. LÄS MER
