  1. 1. Response Matrix Reloaded : for Monte Carlo Simulations in Reactor Physics

    Författare :Mickus Ignas; Jan Dufek; Jaakko Leppänen; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Kärnenergiteknik; Nuclear Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates Monte Carlo methods applied to criticality and time-dependent problems in reactor physics. Due to their accuracy and flexibility, Monte Carlo methods are considered as a “gold standard” in reactor physics calculations. However, the benefits come at a significant computing cost. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Investigation of Polar Mesosphere Summer Echoes in Northern Scandinavia

    Författare :Victoria Barabash; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Polar Mesosphere Summer Echoes; middle atmospheric dynamics; ionospheric disturbances; solar radiation; aerosol; MST radar; planetary waves; noctilucent clouds; Fysik; Physics; Fysik; rymdfysik; Space Physics;

    Sammanfattning : This PhD thesis deals with phenomena which are closely related to the unique thermal structure of the polar summer mesosphere, namely Polar Mesosphere Summer Echoes (PMSE). PMSE are strong radar echoes commonly observed by VHF MST radars from thin layers in the 80-90 km altitude interval at high latitudes during summer. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Pedestal structure and stability in JET-ILW and comparison with JET-C

    Författare :Estera Stefanikova; Lorenzo Frassinetti; Per Brunsell; Joelle Mailloux; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; JET; Thomson scattering; pedestal; pedestal position; pedestal stability; Europed modelling; Physics; Fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Controlled thermonuclear fusion offers a promising concept for safe and sustainable production of electrical energy. However, there are still many issues to be investigated on the way to a commercial fusion reactor. An important point for detailed studies is connected to wall materials surrounding hot thermonuclear plasma. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Topological excitations in field theory models of superconductivity and magnetism

    Författare :Philipp Rybakov; Egor Babaev; Maxim Mostovoy; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fysik; Physics; Teoretisk fysik; Theoretical Physics;

    Sammanfattning : Topological excitations are subjects of intensive studies in physics and mathematics. In solid-state and soft matter physics, topological excitations can largely determine the thermodynamic and electromagnetic properties of materials, while in high energy physics they were theorized as particles.

  5. 5. Defects and Impurities in CdTe : An ab Initio Study

    Författare :Anna Lindström; Mattias Klintenerg; Susanne Mirbt; Biplab Sanyal; Peter Zahn; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Native defects; Compensation mechanisms; Semiconductor doping; Physics with spec. in Atomic; Molecular and Condensed Matter Physics; Fysik med inriktning mot atom- molekyl- och kondenserande materiens fysik;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis defects and impurities in CdTe have been studied with ab initio methods. CdTe is a II-VI semiconductor with many important applications such as γ- and X-ray detectors, solar cells and medical imaging. LÄS MER
