  1. 1. Regulation of nitrogen fixation in Rhodospirillum rubrum : Through proteomics and beyond

    Author : Tiago Selao; Agneta Norén; Daniel Arp; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Rhodospirillum rubrum; nitrogen fixation; redox balance; switch-off; DRAT; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : Adaptability is one of the reasons for the success of bacteria, allowing them to survive in conditions where no other organisms would be able to thrive. Nitrogen deficiency, for example, can be a limiting factor for the growth of micro-organisms, as this element is an essential part of almost all types of biomolecules. READ MORE

  2. 2. Infrared spectroscopy of O2 and N2 adsorption on the clean and hydrogen covered Pt(111) surface

    Author : Kristian Gustafsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Infrared Spectroscopy; Adsorption; Hydrogen; Nitrogen; Pt 111 ; Oxygen;

    Abstract : This thesis is devoted to the investigation of O2and N2 adsorption on the clean and the hydrogen covered Pt(111) surface. Using infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy (IRAS) both physisorbed and chemisorbed molecular adsorptionstates have been identified and characterized via theircharacteristic internal vibration spectra.

  3. 3. Ammonia assimilation and nitrogen fixation in phototrophic bacteria : studies on glutamine synthease and the metabolic regulation of nitrogenase in Rhodospirillum rubrum

    Author : Abdelhamid Soliman; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The phototrophic bacteria and a few other species, are able to control nitrogen fixation on the metabolic level. This is a fast and reversible mechanism, which “switches off and on” the nitrogenase activity in response to the accessibility of combined nitrogen, the energy supply and the level of oxygen in the medium.

  4. 4. A Theoretical Investigation of the Nitrogen-Vacancy Center in Diamond as a Single Molecule Sensor and Qubit : Charging through Explicit Electron Donors

    Author : Robin Löfgren; Andreas Larsson; Sven Öberg; Corina Etz; Fedor Jelezko; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Applied Physics; Tillämpad fysik;

    Abstract : The NV-center in diamond is one of the most well researched defects to date. Since its discovery in the 1960’s, a large body of experimental as well as theoretical work have been produced, investigating its properties and applications. READ MORE

  5. 5. NOx Production by Ionisation Processes in Air

    Author : Mahbubur Rahman; Vernon Cooray; Pierre Laroche; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Engineering physics; Nitrogen oxides; Lightning; Electrical Discharges; Cosmic Rays; Troposphere; Teknisk fysik; Engineering physics; Teknisk fysik;

    Abstract : The study presented in this thesis was motivated by the large uncertainty on the concentration of atmospheric electrical discharges to the global nitrogen budget. This uncertainty is partly due to the fact that information concerning the NOx production efficiency of electrical discharges having current signatures similar to those of lightning flashes is not available in the literature.
