  2. 1. Explorations of University Physics in Abstract Contexts : From de Sitter Space to Learning Space

    Author : Daniel Domert; Cedric Linder; Ulf Danielsson; Duncan Fraser; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; phenomenography; cosmology; de Sitter space; quantum mechanics; conceptual understanding; epistemology; physics equations; Fysik; Physics; Fysik; Physics with specialization in Physics Education; Fysik med inriktning mot fysikens didaktik;

    Abstract : This is a thesis which contributes to research in two different fields: theoretical physics and physics education research. The common link between these two research areas is that both involve explorations of abstract physics and mathematical representations, but from different perspectives. READ MORE

  4. 2. Isospin Breaking in Kaon Decays to Pions

    Author : Fredrik Borg; Teoretisk partikelfysik - Geonomgår omorganisation; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Elementary particle physics; termodynamik; statistisk fysik; gravitation; relativitet; kvantmekanik; thermodynamics; Matematisk och allmän teoretisk fysik; Pseudo-scalar meson; Isospin Breaking; Chiral Perturbation Theory; Mathematical and general theoretical physics; classical mechanics; quantum mechanics; relativity; statistical physics; Weak Interaction; Strong Interaction; kvantfältteori; High energy interactions; Kärnfysik; Nuclear physics; klassisk mekanik; quantum field theory; cosmic rays; Kosmisk strålning; högenergi; Elementarpartikelfysik;

    Abstract : The five different K -> 3 Pi and the three K -> 2 Pi decays are calculated in Chiral Perturbation Theory. The calculation is done using different approximations, to study whether this changes the result significantly. First the isospin approximation is used. Discrepancies are then found between theory and experiment. READ MORE

  5. 3. Chemical and Morphological Characterisation of Aerosol Particles in the Tropopause Region

    Author : Hung Nguyen Ngoc; Kärnfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; CARIBIC; Physics; Singel particle analysis TEM and EFTEM; Carbon and Sulphur; Light element analysis; Aerosol sampler; Chemical Characterisation; Aerosol in the Tropopause Region; Nuclear physics; Technological sciences; Fysik; Teknik; Kärnfysik; Fysicumarkivet A:000;

    Abstract : The aim of this work was to study atmospheric aerosols, focusing on the chemical composition, the morphology and the origin of the aerosol in the upper troposphere and lowermost stratosphere. An aerosol sampler was developed for this purpose. A new method for quantitative analysis of the major components of the aerosol, i.e. READ MORE

  6. 4. Experimental studies of particle production in ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions

    Author : Pål Nilsson; Partikel- och kärnfysik; []

    Abstract : This thesis is about high energy heavy ion physics. Two major experiments, the WA98 at CERN and the PHENIX at Brookhaven National Laboratory, are described. Results from data analysis from both experiments are presented. The WA98 chapter presents particle identification methods and phi-meson measurements. READ MORE

  7. 5. Science, Language, and Literacy : Case Studies of Learning in Swedish University Physics

    Author : John Airey; Cedric Linder; Roger Säljö; Uppsala universitet; []
