2. 1. Tilted Foils Nuclear Spin Polarization and Measurement with Coulomb Excitation

   Author : Hans Törnqvist; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Tilted; Foils; Polarization; Excitation; Coulomb; Nuclear; Spin;

   Abstract : Developing new experimental tools is essential to expand the possibilites of probing the structure of atomic nuclei. The better the currently known properties of nuclei can be manipulated, the more information can be extracted from data collected in nuclear reaction experiments. READ MORE

4. 2. Tilted Foils Nuclear Spin Polarization at REX-ISOLDE

   Author : Hans Törnqvist; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; beta-NMR; ISOLDE; tilted foils; particle scattering; post-acceleration; REX-ISOLDE; nuclear spin polarization; HIE-ISOLDE;

   Abstract : This thesis will explain and summarize my work and involvement in experiments aimed at producing nuclear spin polarization of post-accelerated beams of ions with the tilted-foils technique at the REX-ISOLDE linear accelerator at CERN. Polarizing the nuclear spin of radioactive beams in particular may provide access to observables which may be difficult to obtain otherwise. READ MORE

5. 3. Hadron Physics in a Polarized World : Exploring Electromagnetic Interactions with Spin Observables

   Author : Viktor Thorén; Andrzej Kupsc; Karin Schönning; Magnus Wolke; David Ireland; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hadron; Hyperon; Meson; Polarization; Spin observables; Electromagnetic interactions; BESIII; Fysik med inriktning mot kärnfysik; Physics with specialization in Nuclear Physics;

   Abstract : The electromagnetic interactions of hadrons serve as a valuable probe of the nature of the strong force at low energies and simultaneously allow for tests of fundamental discrete symmetries. In this thesis, I show how polarization observables can be used to gain an in-depth understanding of these processes and present two analyses of data from the BESIII experiment where such observables have been studied.

6. 4. Optical spectroscopy of InGaAs quantum dots

   Author : Arvid Larsson; Per Olof Holtz; Artur Zrenner; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; quantum dot; semiconductor; optical properties; spin; transport; wetting layer; polarization; kvantprick; halvledare; optiska egenskaper; spin; Electrical engineering; electronics and photonics; Elektroteknik; elektronik och fotonik; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Condensed matter physics; Kondenserade materiens fysik; Semiconductor physics; Halvledarfysik;

   Abstract : The work presented in this thesis deals with optical studies of semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) in the InGaAs material system. It is shown that for self-assembled InAs QDs, the interaction with the surrounding GaAs barrier and the InAs wetting layer (WL) in particular, has a very large impact on their optical properties.

7. 5. Role of charge and spin fluctuations and their interplay in solids : A Green’s function approach

   Author : Tor Sjöstrand; Matematisk fysik; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Green’s function; correlations; collective excitations; screened interaction; electric polarization; orbital and spin magnetization; magnon-phonon interaction; Fierz ambiguity; time-dependent exchange-correlation potential;

   Abstract : Due to the large number of electrons, solid state physics boils down to many-body approximations in which only selected types of collective excitations are taken into account, guided by the emergent properties of the material under study. In this thesis, the collective excitations of primary interest are electronic charge and spin fluctuations(plasmons and magnons) and nuclear charge fluctuations (phonons). READ MORE
