  2. 1. X-ray variability in Galactic high-mass black hole binaries

    Author : Magnus Axelsson; Stefan Larsson; Chris Done; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Accretion; high-energy astrophysics; temporal variability; X-ray binaries; Astronomy and astrophysics; Astronomi och astrofysik; Astronomy; astronomi;

    Abstract : The stars of the night sky can to the naked eye appear to be steady and unchanging, apart from the twinkling created by air moving in the atmosphere. However, when viewed in X-rays, the sky is far from constant, with detectable changes occurring on very short timescales.Black hole X-ray binaries are strong sources of X-rays. READ MORE

  4. 2. Reactive Magnetron Sputter Deposition and Characterization of Thin Films from the Ti-Al-N and Sc-Al-N Systems

    Author : Carina Höglund; Lars Hultman; Jens Birch; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : This Thesis treats the growth and characterization of ternary transition metal nitride thin films. The aim is to probe deeper into the Ti-Al-N system and to explore the novel Sc-Al-N system. Thin films were epitaxially grown by reactive magnetron sputtering from elemental targets onto single-crystal substrates covered with a seed layer. READ MORE

  5. 3. Hydrodynamics of Binary Bose-Einstein Condensates and Hydro-elasticity of the Inner Crust of Neutron Stars

    Author : Dmitry Kobyakov; Emil Lundh; Vitaly Bychkov; Mattias Marklund; Achim Schwenk; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Binary Bose-Einstein condensates in ultracold gases; hydrodynamics; quantum turbulence; neutron stars; the inner crust; nuclear astrophysics; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : In the present thesis, “Hydrodynamics of Binary Bose-Einstein Condensates and Hydro-elasticity of the Inner Crust of Neutron Stars”, the hydrodynamic effects, instabilities and superfluid turbulence in binary immiscible ultracold gases, and hydro-elastic macroscopic coupled modes and microscopic structure of the inner layers of the crust of neutron stars, are studied. The ultracold gas dynamics can be realized in the laboratory. READ MORE

  6. 4. Growth and Phase Stability Studies of Epitaxial Sc-Al-N and Ti-Al-N Thin Films

    Author : Carina Höglund; Lars Hultman; Jens Birch; Daniel Gall; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : ¨This Thesis treats the growth and characterization of ternary transition metal nitride thin films. The aim is to probe deep into the Ti-Al-N system and to explore novel Sc-Al-N compounds. Thin films were epitaxially grown by reactive dual magnetron sputtering from elemental targets onto single-crystal substrates. READ MORE
