  1. 1. Investigation of Nuclear Materials with Positron Measurements

    Författare :Petty Bernitt Cartemo; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; depth profiling; positron beam; nuclear materials; radiation damage; positron lifetime measurements;

    Sammanfattning : Positron Annihilation Lifetime Spectroscopy can be used to characterize radia- tion-induced material defects to subsequently optimize nuclear materials with respect to radiation damage. Nuclear Systems of the future such as Generation IV and fusion concepts demand high performance from structural materials, comprising a material's stability in highly-radiative and hot environments.

  2. 2. Beam Diagnostics and Dynamics in Nonlinear Fields

    Författare :Jim Ögren; Roger Ruber; Volker Ziemann; Klaus Leifer; Stephen Peggs; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Beam diagnostics; Nonlinear beam dynamics; Accelerator physics;

    Sammanfattning : Particle accelerators are indispensable tools for probing matter at the smallest scales and the improvements of such tools depend on the progress and understanding of accelerator physics. The Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) is a proposed, linear electron–­positron collider on the TeV-scale, based at CERN. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Novel computational methods for image analysis and quantification using position sensitive radiation detectors

    Författare :Alejandro Sanchez Crespo; Stig A. Larsson; Magnus Dahlbom; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; SPET; PET; CMOS; spatial resolution; photon depth of interaction; positron annihilation; positron range; non-collinearity; scatter; attenuation; lung ventilation; lung perfusion; breast tumour; Medicine; Medicin;

    Sammanfattning : The major advantage of position sensitive radiation detector systems lies in their ability to non invasively map the regional distribution of the emitted radiation in real-time. Three of such detector systems were studied in this thesis, gamma-cameras, positron cameras and CMOS image sensors. LÄS MER
