5. 3. Subphotospheric dissipation in gamma-ray bursts observed by the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope

   Author : Björn Ahlgren; Josefin Larsson; Ross Church; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fysik; Physics;

   Abstract : Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the brightest events in the Universe, for a short time outshining the rest of the Universe combined, as they explode with isotropic equivalent luminosities up to $10^{54}$ erg s$^{-1}$. These events are believed to be connected to supernovae and to binary compact object mergers, such as binary neutron stars or neutron star -- black hole systems. READ MORE

6. 4. PTF12os and iPTF13bvn : Two stripped-envelope supernovae discovered by the Palomar Transient Factory

   Author : Christoffer Fremling; Jesper Sollerman; Ross Church; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; sovernovae;

   Abstract : This thesis is based on research made by the intermediate Palomar Transient Factory [(i)PTF], and it is particularly closely tied to the still ongoing research on the stripped-envelope (SE) supernova (SN), iPTF13bvn (Type Ib), that occurred in the nearby galaxy NGC 5806. This SN was initially thought to have been the explosion of a very massive Wolf-Rayet (WR) star, but I have shown that this is very likely not the case. READ MORE

7. 5. 'Pancosmic' Church - Specific Romanesc: Ecclesiological Themes in the Writings of Nichifor Crainic between 1922 and 1944

   Author : Christine Mary Hall; Sven-Erik Brodd; Kaisamari Hintikka; Uppsala universitet; []

   Abstract : This thesis is concerned with the Romanian Orthodox poet, director of the journal G�ndirea, and theologian, Nichifor Crainic (1889-1972), and with the two over-arching ecclesiological themes in his writings between 1922 and 1944 ? the pancosmic Church and specificul rom�nesc (the particularity of Romanian identity). Though these are fundamentally related to each other, there are many tensions between them, as the relationship between local and particular identity and pancosmic universality is worked out against the complex political backdrop of 20-th century Romania.
