  1. 1. Strong Light-Matter Coupling: the Road from Conventional to Cavity-Free Polaritons

    Author : Adriana Canales Ramos; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fabry-Pérot microcavities; self-hybridized polaritons; Mie modes; Strong and ultrastrong coupling; Lorentz resonances; decay rates; cavity-free polaritons; Casimir force; 2D–crystals; plasmons; water droplets.; self-assembled microcavities;

    Abstract : The interaction between light and matter is fundamental in perceiving and understanding the world. The interaction is typically weak, meaning light only perturbs matter without changing its properties. READ MORE

  2. 2. Dissolved organic matter in lakes : Chemical diversity and continuum of reactivity

    Author : Alina Mostovaya; Lars Tranvik; Colin Stedmon; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : dissolved organic matter; DOM; dissolved organic carbon; DOC; PARAFAC; reactivity continuum model; ultrahigh resolution mass spectrometry; FT-ICR-MS; organic matter characterization; decomposition kinetics; baseline metabolism; Biologi med inriktning mot limnologi; Biology with specialization in Limnology;

    Abstract : Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is the largest pool of organic carbon in aquatic systems and an important component of the global carbon cycle. Large amounts of DOM are decomposed within lakes, resulting in fluxes of CO2 and CH4 to the atmosphere. READ MORE

  3. 3. Influence of Nuclear Structure on Decay Properties of Heavy Nuclei

    Author : Daniel Ward; Matematisk fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; alpha decay; hindrance factors; Skyrme-Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov model; superheavy nuclei; fission yields; Brownian-shape motion; nuclear structure; nuclear level density; alpha decay; hindrance factors; Skyrme-Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov model; superheavy nuclei; fission yields; Brownian-shape motion; nuclear structure; nuclear level density; Fysicumarkivet A:2017:Ward;

    Abstract : This dissertation deals with the effects of nuclear structure on the α-decay properties, and on the fission-yielddistributions from the decay of heavy nuclei. The nuclear-structure and decay properties of superheavynuclei is one of the central topics for investigation. READ MORE

  4. 4. Time-dependent relaxation of charge and energy in electronic nanosystems

    Author : Jens Schulenborg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; heat current; quantum dot; relaxation rate; rate detection; generalization of hermiticity; nonunitary dynamics; open quantum system; Coulomb charging energy; voltage switch; transient response; electronic nanosystem;

    Abstract : The study of the dynamics of strongly confined, interacting open quantum systems has attracted great interest over the past years, due to potential applications in nanoelectronics, metrology as well as quantum information. Most recent experimental and theoretical research in this field has shifted attention towards electronic heat currents, recognizing their potential for practical purposes as well as for tests of fundamental theories, and also aiming to control the inevitable heat dissipation of any dynamically operated electronic device.

  5. 5. Gamow -Teller Beta Decay in Drip Line Nuclei

    Author : Fredrik Frisk; Matematisk fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; gravitation; relativity; proton drip line; Gamow-Teller giant resonance; beta decay; Hartree-Fock calculation; prolate; oblate; deformed nuclei; Tamm-Dancoff approximation; Mathematical and general theoretical physics; quantum mechanics; classical mechanics; statistical physics; thermodynamics; Matematisk och allmän teoretisk fysik; klassisk mekanik; kvantmekanik; relativitet; statistisk fysik; termodynamik; Fysicumarkivet A:1997:Frisk;

    Abstract : Before radioactive ion beams became available, the Gamow-Teller (GT) giant resonance was studied using charge-exchange reactions such as (p,n) and (He,t). In beta-stable nuclei, which can be used as targets, the GT giant resonance lies above the ground state of the mother nucleus. READ MORE
