  1. 1. MULTIFOCAL SPHERICAL FISH LENSES

    Författare :Yakir Gagnon; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Multifocal Lens; Adaptation; Dispersion; Spherical lens; Model; Fish; Ray-trace; Longitudinal Chromatic Aberration; Longitudinal Spherical Aberration; Modulation Transfer Function; Point Spread Function; Refractive Index Gradient;

    Sammanfattning : Vision is an important source of information for many animals. The lens plays a central role in the visual pathway and hence the ecology of these animals. Fish have spherically shaped crystalline lenses that contain a gradient of refractive index. Like all refracting elements, lens performance depends on the wavelength of the refracted light. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Laser-Driven Plasma Waves for Particle Acceleration and X-ray Production

    Författare :Guillaume Genoud; Atomfysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Laser plasma acceleration of electrons and protons; laser-wakefield acceleration; plasma waves; plasma-wiggler radiation; betatron radiation; laser guiding; laser pointing stabilisation;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents experimental results related to laser plasma accelerators. These rely on very different principles from conventional particle accelerators. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Fish Lenses : Anatomy and Optics

    Författare :Tomasz M Kozłowski; Funktionell zoologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Plasticity; Development; Cellular structure; Lens fiber cells; Modeling; Laser Scanning; Schlieren photography; Fast Fourier Transform FFT ;

    Sammanfattning : I have investigated some of the biological regulatory mechanisms governing the development of crystalline lenses. I used fish as model animals because they possess optically interesting lenses, while the geometrical simplicity of fish lenses allows for studies that are difficult or impossible with the lenses of other animals.
