  1. 1. Low-Energy Modes of Molecules and Atoms Chemisorbed on a Metal Surface. CO and O on Pt(111) Studied by Infrared Spectroscopy

    Författare :Ulrika Engström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; dipole-allowed modes; low-energy modes; carbon monoxide; Infrared spectroscopy; dipole-forbidden modes; Pt 111 ; anti-absorption; Fermi resonance; atomic oxygen;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is devoted to the investigation of low-energy metal-adsorbate vibrational modes of CO molecules and O atoms chemisorbed on a Pt(111) surface using infrared spectroscopy (IRS). The infrared selection rule states that only vibrational modes having a non-vanishing component of its dynamical dipole moment perpendicular to the surface can be directly excited using IRS, known as dipole-allowed modes.

  4. 4. Collective Electron Dynamics in Mesoscopic Systems

    Författare :Oleksandr Zazunov; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Andreev reflection; Josephson effect; qubit; composite fermions; Andreev levels; resonant tunneling; superconductivity; high-T c superconductors; quantum point contact; fractional quantum Hall effect;

    Sammanfattning : This work is devoted to a theoretical investigation of collective electron dynamics in low dimensional materials and mesoscopic structures. A common feature of these studies is the focus on the properties of the low energy dynamics of conduction electrons. One class of studied materials is the high-Tc superconductor Nd2CuO4 and related compounds. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Exploring effective descriptions of gauge fields and strings : A Lagrangian approach with insights from color-kinematics duality

    Författare :Lucia M. Garozzo; Henrik Johansson; Chris White; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; scattering amplitudes; double copy; gauge theory; string theory; Theoretical Physics; Teoretisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : The concept of a color-kinematics duality is an important driving force in advancing the modern understanding of scattering amplitudes, in both field theory and string theory. Yet, open questions remain that motivate the need for a deeper understanding of the duality. LÄS MER
