  2. 16. X-ray free-electron laser based methods for structural and ultrafast dynamics studies of a photosynthetic reaction centre

    Author : David Arnlund; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; WAXS; wide-angle x-ray scattering; XFEL; x-ray free-electron laser; reaction center; structural biology; ultrafast dynamics;

    Abstract : Life on earth is fuelled by the energy of sunlight, which must first be captured and converted into a chemical energy form useful to the cell. This process is known as photosynthesis and the major pathway of this energy conversion is via photosynthetic reaction centres. READ MORE

  4. 17. Spin Dynamics and Magnetic Multilayers

    Author : Björn Skubic; Olle Eriksson; Lars Nordström; Mark D. Stiles; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; magnetism; electronic structure; density functional theory; spin dynamics; spin-transfer torque; spin-density wave; multilayer; interface structure; Fysik;

    Abstract : Theoretical studies based on first-principles theory are presented for a number of different magnetic systems. The first part of the thesis concerns spin dynamics and the second part concerns properties of magnetic multilayers. The theoretical treatment is based on electronic structure calculations performed by means of density functional theory. READ MORE
