  1. 11. Complex patterns : from physical to social interactions

    Författare :Andreas Grönlund; Petter Minnhagen; Hawoong Jeong; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Complex networks; collective dynamics; statistical physics; random graphs; Statistical physics; Statistisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Interactions are what gives us the knowledge of the world around us. Interactions on all levels may fundamentally be seen as an exchange of information and a possible response of the same. Whether it is an electron in an electrical field or a handsome dude in a bar responding to a flirtation---interactions make things happen. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Search for Gamma-ray Lines from Dark Matter with the Fermi Large Area Telescope

    Författare :Tomi Ylinen; Mark Pearce; Jan Conrad; Staffan Carius; James T. Linnemann; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fermi; Large Area Telescope; gamma-rays; dark matter; spectral lines; beam test; Physics; Fysik; Astroparticle physics; Astropartikelfysik;

    Sammanfattning : Dark matter (DM) constitutes one of the most intriguing but so far unresolved issues in physics. In many extensions of the Standard Model of particle physics, the existence of a stable Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP) is predicted. The WIMP is an excellent DM particle candidate.

  3. 13. Searching for an Ultra High-Energy Diffuse Flux of Extraterrestrial Neutrinos with IceCube 40

    Författare :Henrik Johansson; Christian Walck; Antoine Letessier-Selvon; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Neutrinos; UHE; diffuse; IceCube; Astroparticle physics; Astropartikelfysik; fysik; Physics;

    Sammanfattning : Neutrino astronomy has the potential to greatly improve our understanding of the high-energy universe. An unresolved, diffuse, flux of neutrinos is sensitive to the properties of the population of cosmic accelerators in the universe. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Phase transitions in novel superfluids and systems with correlated disorder

    Författare :Hannes Meier; Mats Wallin; Asle Sudbø; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; condensed matter physics; phase transitions; critical phenomena; spin models; quantum phase transitions; quantum fluids; superfluidity; superconductivity; disordered systems; Bose glass; dirty bosons; vortex pinning; statistical mechanics; Monte Carlo simulation; Wolff algorithm; classical worm algorithm; Wang-Landau algorithm; Fysik; Physics;

    Sammanfattning : Condensed matter systems undergoing phase transitions rarely allow exact solutions. The presence of disorder renders the situation  even worse but collective Monte Carlo methods and parallel algorithms allow numerical descriptions. LÄS MER

  5. 15. On the Use of Laser-Induced Incandescence for Soot Diagnostics: From Theoretical Aspects to Applications in Engines

    Författare :Henrik Bladh; Förbränningsfysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Laser-Induced Incandescence; Laser Diagnostics; LII; Soot; Model; Engine; Particulates; Soot volume fraction; Combustion; Physics; Fysik; quantum mechanics; classical mechanics; Mathematical and general theoretical physics; Matematisk och allmän teoretisk fysik; thermodynamics; statistical physics; gravitation; relativity; kvantmekanik; klassisk mekanik; termodynamik; statistisk fysik; relativitet; Gases; Gaser; fluid dynamics; plasmas; Teknik; Laserteknik; Motors and propulsion systems; Motorer; framdrivningssystem; fluiddynamik; plasma; Technological sciences; Laser technology;

    Sammanfattning : The laser-induced incandescence technique (LII) is a laser-based diagnostic technique for measurements of soot volume fraction and particle size. The technique relies on detection of incandescent light from soot particles heated to around 4000 K using nanosecond laser pulses. LÄS MER
